E3: Animal Forest coming to U.S. on GameCube

[05.16.01] » Nintendo 64 title being ported, optimized for North American release.

   Nintendo today confirmed that its unique "communication" title Animal Forest is coming to North America -- but not on the Nintendo 64. With sales of N64 games declining, Nintendo has chosen to port Animal Forest to the GameCube for its North American release. The game will be "optimized" for the GameCube, meaning players can expect some sort of enhancements. Unfortunately, there's no word yet on what the changes might be, but improved graphics seem likely.

   More on Animal Forest can be found in the GIA's coverage of the Japanese Nintendo 64 release.
