Just ordered a copy myself, eager to read it. I ran into same issue Kelsey described when I was trying to pitch it to my friends during our regular gaming nights in the early 2000's. I got it when it just came out since I'm a sucker for odd-ball Nintendo games. Became a big fan like a lot of other folks, so wanted my friends to check it out. They did not get the appeal from my descriptions, so I had to just bring my GC over one night and just set up Animal Crossing to show them how it played. They quickly got sucked in and firing up AC became a regular staple of our gaming nights. First they bough their own memory cards to create their own towns, then a couple ended up finally buying their own GC's so they could develop their towns on their own time.
