I wonder if it actually is a "movie", or if it's a show (bad translation could refer to it as a movie, my mom calls TV shows "movies" all the time).  Because I think the nature of Animal Crossing would lend itself much better to a TV show, if it had to be adapted at all.



Imagine: episodic silliness involving the characters found in every town, plus a boy and a girl. Or two of each, like in those Animal Crossing (for GameCube) commercials.  Special visitors and particular animal villagers could be the focus of a particular episode, but then they leave or move away at the end of it.



What do you guys think?



Oh, here's the http://doubutsunomori-movie.jp/">official Japanese site.  Looks like Kapp'n and Tom Nook are definitely in it.

It was an okay game, however it seems like they'll have to do a lot of work in adapting a free-form game like this into an intersting story.  Like you said, it would be better if it were a series, but even then I think it would go stale after a little while.
