Animal Crossing (Wii) Confirmed

Animal Crossing Wii - Nintendo
Animal Crossing Wii is a video game for the Nintendo Wii console that has been confirmed by IGN to be in development, as of 2005. Little information about the game is known, but it can be safely assumed that it will feature the same basic premise and gameplay as other Animal Crossing games.

Speculation
The new capabilities of the Wii controller will most likely be used, possibly for fishing, bug catching, hole digging, sling shotting, or tree chopping.

It is also likely that due to the Wii's online capabilities, Animal Crossing Wii will have features that take advantage of the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, in a similar fashion to Animal Crossing: Wild World for the Nintendo DS.
