If you haven’t visited your village in Animal Crossing for awhile (something I’m afraid I was guilty of), you’re in for a nice treat. Once you leave your house after loading your village, you’ll be met by Pete, the postal pelican, and he’ll have a special letter(s) for you from Nintendo. The first letter I received this week was a spiffy hat for St. Patrick’s day. It was a lovely green top hat with a bonny shamrock on the front.  Just a couple days later, Pete was once again at my front door, this time with a special Pikmin hat. While a small change in clothes may not seem like a big deal, the fact that Nintendo is delivering some new items this way opens up some exciting new possibilities. From exclusive furniture to new plants and fruit to who knows what else, here’s hoping Nintendo really puts some support behind AC: City Folk with this fun and unique way of delivering new content.
