Animal Crossing: City Folk has a neat connectivity feature that lets you import your character from Animal Crossing: Wild World into the Wii game. However, all the hard work that you put into the DS game doesn’t carryover. You arrive in the Wii world with empty pockets. All the bells you amassed by digging up dinosaur bones stay in the DS game. This means you’re force to work for Tom Nook, make lazy friends, and deliver their packages. But, the capitalist raccoon does remember you. He has your catalog just in case you want to buy any of the items you already purchased in Animal Crossing: Wild World again.
If you’re ready to become Tom Nook’s indentured servant for the second time the data transfer can be done by downloading a special DS program from Animal Crossing: City Folk. Here’s a look at how the system works.
