Chris Buffa (Modojo): Nintendo released the original Animal Crossing in the United States on April 14, 2001. At first, this charming title reminded us of Electronic Arts The Sims, though any perceived similarities quickly evaporated once we played the game. The concept of living in a town populated with anthropomorphic critters was a tough sell to some people. For us, it provided a welcome escape from the real world. Theres very little stress in Animal Crossing, which is one of the big reasons we love it.

Shack News: "More than most other series in Nintendo's library, Animal Crossing is iterative. Since its Gamecube debut, each installment has made very minor tweaks and improvements to the last, culminating (so far) in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. This one's twist on the familiar isn't quite enough to make the experience feel completely fresh, but the friendship simulator is still a welcoming place to while away some time."

Pocket Gamer: Whenever I'm asked why I adore the Animal Crossing series, I find it incredibly tough to explain the appeal to someone who hasn't played it. After all, who would believe that the joy of collecting the last fossil in a set of dinosaur remains can evoke the raw thrill of winning a hard-fought group battle in Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate? Or that when a new shop opens in the town, it's as joyous a moment as making it through a tricky mine cart sequence in Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D?

Chris Buffa (Modojo): Nintendo's Animal Crossing series is somewhat of a tough sell because it strays outside the video game norm that involves shooting monsters, racing sports cars and solving puzzles. Inevitably, some folks simply won't get it, as was the case with the original GameCube version in 2001. Imagine a college senior gushing about living with anthropomorphic animals, only to watch dumbfounded as friends scratched their heads and left to play something with guns and swords. It was basically PaRappa the Rapper all over again; I received plenty of confused stares over that one too.

GR:Some games are completely incomprehensible difficult to explain to outsiders, although they should be obvious to understand. Animal Crossing has always been such a game for me.
