Animal Crossing - the movie?

Publish date: 2024-06-11
Animal Crossing Wild World was the highest selling game in Japan last year, and has continued to sell, recently passing the three million units mark in Japan alone. Nintendo has realised the possibility that they might have another Pokémon on their hands, and announced plans to create a movie based on the licence in an effort to create another multimedia sensation out of the property.

First of all, don't worry - it will not be live action! It will be an animated feature by Master Keaton and Shin Angyo Onshi. director Jouji Shimura, and the game's developers are heavily involved to make sure the movie stays true to the games. The movie doesn't have a name yet, but will be in Japanese theaters before the end of the year.

We can't help but wonder exactly how a movie based on the Sims like 'lifestyle' game will work. Will the plot be about having to return Tangy's magazine? Collecting some magical fossil, fish or bug? We're intrigued, and will get you more info as soon as it's available.
