Quoting limited to 4 levels deep

Uh...no. I don't care nearly as much about what happens in a game (except in certain deeper franchises, like Zelda) than I do about the experience and entertainment that I get from it. Sure, the Animal Crossing games up until now have all been pretty similar, but each new installment has brought new features, events, characters, and items that make it more interesting than the last. And even if it isn't dramatically different, I still have fun with it. Besides, every time you start a new Animal Crossing game, even if it's just restarting the same game, it's a whole new experience, because you have a different town, different house, and different neighbors. Even if Nintendo didn't add anything new at all to the next Animal Crossing game, I'd still play it because it'd be a new experience. But it looks like the next Animal Crossing is going to be a big step forward for the franchise, so you have nothing to worry about. =p

You could always restart your town. :l

Yeah, but I prefer to wait until the next Animal Crossing game, because it won't only be a restart, it will also have new items, features, events, and characters. And Animal Crossing 3DS is looking like it's going to have a lot of new stuff.

What new stuff are we talking about exactly? Because all I have seen are more clothing options and benches.

If the 3DS has Flipnote Studio, I'll get it.

Well, from the look of the game, it appears that it's going to be drastically different from any other previous Animal Crossing game.

I don't know if this has been posted yet, but I imagine the way it works is pretty simple.

The possibility is:

The 3DS has two screens on the top, layered closely over each other so that it puts the images side to side. And when one slides the adjustment bar over, it re-aligns the pixels to either farther away (or however close it needs to be quality 3D) or closer together/on top of each other to eliminate the 3D aspect completely. While these two screens are active, yet another screen is layered on top of these two. This is the 3D screen. Imagine it as your pair of 3D glasses. But, instead of wearing them, they're already right over the screen. By doing this, you eliminate the need for 3D glasses. It will process the two images together much like actual 3D glasses.

Just a theory.

It utilizes a parallax LCD, which can control how much light is given to each eye, giving a 3D effect.


The only reason 3D TVs don't use it is because since it has to bend the light, you need to be looking directly at it for the 3D to work properly.
