Nintendo’s global president, Mr. Satoru Iwata believes that Animal Crossing 3DS will take full advantage of the Nintendo 3DS’ unique capabilities to deliver a much richer experience than those found in previous Animal Crossing titles. Here’s the full quote from Mr. Iwata:
“When the company can finalize the development of the software which takes full advantage of these unique functions, for example, if we can do so with the new Animal Crossing for the Nintendo 3DS, our consumers will be able to feel and realise that the new Animal Crossing is not only a richer version of its predecessors but also how positively such functions can affect their play experiences.”
The game is currently scheduled for a Fall release in Japan, but let’s cross our fingers so we’re given a Western release date at the E3 next month.

The company didn’t announce specific dates for these eagerly awaited titles other than they’re scheduled for a 2012 release.
