Animal Crossing to use Miis

[wraggster]

Your Wii-made Mii persona will be used as your playable character in the Wii version of Animal Crossing, and any accessories or clothing collected in-game will be available for your Mii to wear in other Nintendo Wii titles, according to US games magazine, Electronic Gaming Monthly.

These hints were dropped in EGM's most recent rumour column, although Nintendo's eagerness to use Mii characters in other Wii games - Wii Sports, The Sims Wii, WarioWare Smooth Moves - suggests that there may be a shred of truth to the speculation.

But we're not convinced it'd be a wise move. Animal Crossing's charming and beautifully cartoonified visual style is one of the series' strongest assets. If Animal Crossing on Wii shares the same, much less attractive style as The Sims Wii, we're sure there'll be hordes of 'Crossing fans lining up to give Nintendo a piece of their minds. And we'll be right at the front of the crowd.

The ability to transfer your bits and bobs - perhaps enabled by a firmware update - is a nice touch. But please, if you're listening Nintendo, don't compromise Animal Crossing's fantastic visuals by turning it into just another Mii vehicle.

Yes!! I actually like the idea of using Animal Crossing visual style on my Mii's. Just think about it, putting your own pattern on your Mii's, draw whatever the hell you want, your Mii's will ware it. Let the idea flow. I LOVE animal crossing!!!

Think about it, create a Devil look-alike Mii with custom patterns from Animal Crossing and import it into your church's Wii. Those kids' parents will think that Nintendo is the work of the Devil....hahahaaaa.....lol

Id like a see it that the Miis look different in each game.

For example.. if you Mii has the No. 13 eyes (For whatever reason) the game designer can re enturperet those eyes into the games idividual art work.

Basically Mii you create in the main system hub may have closed eyes.. which means the Mii in Animal Crossing will have closed eyes.. but those eyes may not look exactly the same as the ones on the Wii channel.

If you see what I mean... :confused: haha
