Animal Crossing and Herdy Gerdy are in no way or form similar. Herdy Gerdy is like a Platformer meets the Lemmings. Animal Crossing is like, well Animal Crossing. How the hell did you get Herdy Gerdy out of Animal Crossing?!

Herdy Gerdy sucks. Animal Crossing is amazing.
Just ask yourself, "Does anyone like Herdy Gerdy?" Then look around the first page or two here and see how many people like AC.

To me, Animal Crossing is very similar to Harvest Moon. If you like Harvest Moon, then I think you'll like Animal Crossing. Basically take Harvest Moon's gameplay of maintaining a farm and apply to a whole town. Then add an addiction for finding and buying rare expensive items for your house. That's the point of the whole game. Plus the whole option of trading rare items using codes with other Animal Crossing players makes the game much more enjoyable.
The only thing that may turn you off is that the game plays in real time, meaning you have to wait an actual day to do more things or for something to happen, but that's what makes it seem like a virtual pet. If you plant a tree in Animal Crossing you can't go to bed in the game and have the tree grow the next game day. You'll have to actually go to bed in real life wait a whole real day. There also doesn't appear to be any direct courting of a girl and getting married, but with Animal Crossing you never know what is possible... There's a good many things to do and a lot of little details to discover. Thats why it seems to be such a fun game for me.

I'll take your word (everyone who posted regarding it) as to the merit of non-rf NES. I was just thinking how bad emulated 8-bit games look - especially PC Engine stuff. It all looks so much nicer on a tv.

I don't see a problem with the toploader, I don't get any vertical lines or anything, the picture looks fine. I think it's more a videophile thing, unless only some of the top loaders do the vertical line thing, because mine doesn't. I say just get a top loader and some NES games and be happy. When I was 8 and got an NES I didn't care about that stuff anyway, I just wanted to play some damn Mario. So play some damn Mario people. That is all.

I think I'd rather get Starfox Adventures from Target and get one of those nifty Fox McCloud bobbleheads. I'm a sucker for cool chicken like that :)

No frigging kidding! A StarFox bobblehead! I have to have it!
