Infendo has some details from Nintendo about the WiFi functionality in the upcoming Animal Crossing: Wild World title for the Nintendo DS. Up to four players will be able to meet in a single town and do the day-to-day Animal Crossing chores, fishing, cutting down trees, picking weeds in addition to text messaging each other while in-town. Like the GameCube versions, players' resident animals may move to other players' towns. The WiFi mode and town-visiting is available to anyone in WiFi range. I forsee much griefing in Animal Crossing. Faithful readers, head into an unsuspecting town and cut down all of the trees. Report to us with the results and some screenshots. November can't get here fast enough!

Thanks to Infendo for the tip.
