Didn't some industry big-shot just predict that a Wii MMOG was a long way off? N00b.
It looks like the Wii might be getting an Animal Crossing MMOG, although there's no official confirmation yet. From the Next-Gen.biz article:
Animal Crossing for the Wii will be an MMO/social networking title. Its no great surprise in a few short years, Animal Crossing has become one of Nintendos most-loved and top selling franchises (over seven million copies sold), particularly in Japan. Nintendo refers to the title as a communications game rather than a videogame, and playing already depends on real-world timekeeping, weather patterns, social conventions, and above all else economic interactions. In almost every way, Animal Crossing has always been the perfect MMO concept, and this development is simply a fulfilment of that promise.
