Animal Crossing – Easter E-Cards
Easter is soon upon us, and to mark the feast of eating excessive low priced, low quality, unfairly-traded chocolate in order to celebrate the made-up death and rebirth of some carpenter 1,970-ish years ago, Nintendo is kindly offering a free Animal Crossing: Wild World eCard service.

SPOnG loves Animal Crossing: Wild World. So much so that we’ve decided to dedicate the entire look and feel of our website to this most beautiful little gem of a game. Yes, there was some money involved in that transaction too, but that’s all by the by…

If, like us, you are already playing Animal Crossing: Wild World, then you are probably not even reading this. As you could be spending the time playing the game instead. If however, you have yet to discover the joys of this time-sapping little beauty there is an extra reason to get involved this coming Easter weekend.

From Good Friday until the end of the Easter weekend, every player who takes Wild World online, via Nintendo’s superlative, free-of-charge Wi-Fi Connection, will receive a special letter from Nintendo, delivered straight to their in-game mailbox, complete with a free in-game Easter pressie. SPOnG is not sure what it is going to be yet, but its fair to say that it won’t be industrial grade chocolate, so you are not likely to become obese or get arterial plaque from buying ACWW.

If you’d still like to know more about Wild World, check out the dedicated Animal Crossing site. Tell us all about your best ACWW in-game stories and acquisitions in the forums below.

If you are still wondering what you want for Easter. Get this.

Why do you resent it? Do you actually believe a carpenter, the Son of God, lived and died on Earth two centuries ago? Because if you do REALLY believe that, you shouldn't resent the opinions of others, you should turn the other cheek.

What you SHOULD resent are the foul and abhorent actions that are being undertaken in God's name.

What you should resent is the President of the United States waging a holy war (for his real religion of Corporate profits, not Christianity) against another faith because "God told him to".

What you should resent is a famous christian evangelist calling for the assassination of a democratically elected world leader.

Thou shalt no kill, anyone?

Resent the important stuff, not the fact that some people (who may share your morals and ideals) do not share the same superstitions as you.

no probs, check the animal crossing wild world review forum for friend's codes. Mine's 5412-3490-8063.

If you want the easter egg you need to open your town for others to come in and then it'll be delivered to you the next day. Nobody needs to actually come in (I did this yesterday) and you'll still get the present.
