It wasn't certain whether or not Animal Crossing: City Folk would be sold by itself or in a package bundle with the Wii Speak microphone device. Originally, it was said that they would launch seperately at E3 2008, but this was contradicted by various rumours which said they would be sold together. Well, now we know the truth from a trusty source that is, the manager of Gamestop's conference which was held in Las Vegas.

If you live in the United States of America, you can expect to see this game hitting shelves near you before Christmas for the juicy price of $69.99. This is about £40 for those of you who are British, like myself, or €50 for the rest of Europe who have convereted to the oh-so special Euro. However, expect these prices to be slightly higher as currency translations never usual apply in the video game industry, as seen with Rock Band which saw a huge price difference between that of Britains and America's. Gamestop have also said that you'll be able to buy the game and Wii Speak peripheral seperately, but it could work out cheaper just to buy the bundle.


This is Tjharwin reminding you to stay chatty when using your Wii Speak microphones this Autumn.
