This is a list of some of the changes made from the previous two games.
- There is a new city area featuring shops and other places not found in the two previous games.

- Real-world holidays that were absent in Wild World, such as Christmas and Halloween, have returned.
- Holiday characters, such as Jingle the reindeer, have returned.
- Each player in a town has his or her own house.
- Each player's house is in a different area of town, as opposed to the central hub found in Animal Crossing.
- Players may now change the sleeves, fronts, and backs of their outfits instead of changing the outfit as a whole.
- Players may now change the color of their shoes.
- Instead of talking to Pelly in the town hall, players must use an ABD machine to manage their account and mortgages.
- Towns can have slopes and cliffs in them, similar to the first Animal Crossing game.
- As this is a Wii game, you cannot see balloons flying across unless you press , as before you could see them on the upper screen of the DS.
- Tom Nook's store and Able Sisters are no longer side by side, but in different parts of town just as they were in the original.
- Rover greets you every time you begin play instead of in Wi-Fi.
- During the Fishing Tourney, instead of going to see Tortimer, you show your fish to a beaver called Chip. Also, the Bug-Off features a new character called Nat.
