Animal Crossing is finally out for the DS, at least it is in Japan. It’s selling twice as fast as Mario Kart and three times faster than Nintendogs. The sales of Animal Crossing alone are almost as much as the next three titles inthe chart combined.

It’s a 300lb gorilla I tell ya. I’d go back and play mine on the GC now but I fear the weeds. THOSE DAMN WEEDS!
