Producer Katsuya Eguchi and a trio of developers from the Animal Crossing 3DS team spend ten minutes discussing how the latest iteration of the animal life sim will set itself apart from the rest. They had me at skirts and pants.

Katsuya Eguchi, creator of Animal Crossing and producer of the next game in that series, mostly talked to me about Wii U at E3 last week. But surely he had some news about Animal Crossing's forthcoming 3DS installment?

Are you ready for a radical departure from the Animal Crossing formula for the game's foray on the Nintendo 3DS? That's just not going to happen, but here's a guy dressed as Link.

I'm not sure whether this is an upcoming game or a technical demo, but...actually, it's Animal Crossing, of course this will eventually show up on the Nintendo 3DS.
