'''Animal Crossing''' is a [[simulation]] game developed by [[Nintendo EAD]] and published by [[Nintendo]]. It was originally released exclusively in Japan as {{nihongo|'''Animal Forest'''|どうぶつの森|Doubutsu no Mori}} for the [[Nintendo 64]] on April 14, [[2001]]. It was then ported and re-released for the [[Nintendo GameCube]] in December, 2001, again exclusively in Japan, as {{nihongo|'''Animal Forest+'''|どうぶつの森+|Doubutsu no Mori Purasu}}. It was later released in other countries in 2002-2004. A final version, titled {{nihongo|'''Animal Forest e+'''|どうぶつの森e+|Doubutsu no Mori ii Purasu}}, was released in Japan in [[2003]].


When you start the game, you will be on a train, and a cat will sit across from you and ask you some questions which will determine what you look like, your name,and town name. Then the train will stop and you will get off. As you leave the train station, a Tanuki (often mistaken for a raccoon in America) will talk to you and lead you to a small complex of 4 houses. You will get to choose one and then he will give a series of short jobs to do (It is basically a short tutorial) Once you are done, he will subtract a short total from your loan. Now, you can do basically whatever you want. You can get the money to pay off the loan by selling him stuff you don't need such as unwanted furniture or fish that you caught:. The more you shop in his store, the bigger he makes his shop. When he remodels, he sends you a letter in the [[GameCube]] game and posts on the board in front of town hall in [[Nintendo DS]]. Someday he'll get a big shop called Nookingtons with a hair salon: Shampoodle!
Animal Crossing is the first game compatible with the short-lived [[e-Reader]].

It was then ported and re-released for the Nintendo GameCube in December, 2001, again exclusively in Japan, as Animal Forest+ (どうぶつの森+ Doubutsu no Mori Purasu?). It was later released in other countries in 2002-2004. A final version, titled Animal Forest e+ (どうぶつの森e+ Doubutsu no Mori ii Purasu?), was released in Japan in 2003.

As a real-life simulation video game, Animal Crossing revolves around you—the player—as you live day-by-day in a town full of animals. However, up to four humans can live in a town at a time.
