In my mailbox yesterday was a copy of 2005's "Animal Crossing: Wild World" for the DS out of the shrinkwrap and accompanied with a letter on Nintendo stationery written in the voice of the game's Mayor Tortimer, encouraging me to use this copy of the game to import all of its unlocked items and its character to "Animal Crossing: City Folk" on the Wii.
Nintendo must have known that I'm terrible at "Animal Crossing" and thought I'd need help. So they unlocked a lot of content for me. They appear to have quite accidentally gotten a bit hip-hop about all this. Whoever played this game for me back at Nintendo trained at least one of the characters to greet me with the line [censored here]: 'How are you, N-a?'"
