My Nintendo News:
The Animal Crossing series isn’t about saving a princess, nor is it about defeating a villain. Instead, the series is about living a second life. Animal Crossing has the player residing in a new town, starting off as a poor fellow, repaying his or her debts, buying merchandise, donating items and developing relationships with friends and neighbors. Contrary to what skeptics say, there are numerous objectives in each Animal Crossing game, but it’s yours to decide how you approach your goals.

While it was hard to narrow down, these 30 Nintendo 3DS games are emblematic of the system’s success."
