Animal Crossing community site Animal Crossing Ahead has posted a hands-on account with Nintendo's upcoming Animal Crossing: Wild World from the DigitalLife expo.

From the account, a few new details can be gleaned:

  • Nintendo has apparently settled on "Tag Mode" as the new name for their wireless broadcast feature, which will make an appearance in the game. (The feature first appeared in Nintendogs).
  • The game appears to feature a hybrid plant breeding system; no details are yet known.
  • House placement, previously known to be no longer restricted to one acre, is determined by the questions you answer when you start a new game.
