Game looks nice and interesting.This looks like an Animal Crossing X Disney X RPG.If it will be marketed properly it can achieve big things in Japan.

Damn Nintendo why is 3DS region-locked?

I'm pretty sure the Disney game is going to come out in the US and EU.

Some Disney-themed DS games never arrived in the West, such as Motto! Stitch! DS: Rhythm de Rakugaki Daisakusen ♪ and Winnie the Pooh’s Hundred Acre Woods Cooking Book.

This one does seem like it has a fairly large production value, and it definitely has potential, so I can't imagine they'd let it languish in Japan. Perhaps it will be a holiday title here.

New Leaf came out about 4 months ago? so Magic Castle was obviously in the works before that, but has probably been expedited after seeing New Leaf's phenomenal sales. it looks to have huge sales potential in Japan, and because of the familiar characters, the music, and the battling I'd be inclined to buy this over Animal Crossing.

Much better selection than Disney Infinity's lineup, that's for sure.

POOOOOH! :D There will be 80 Disney characters, please include movies!

Looks GREAT graphically! I wonder if it's in-house at Namco Bandai or outsourced, maybe to tri-Crecendo or something?

The actual gameplay graphics look terrible. It seems like they're pulling off some sort of Gran Turismo-esque BS photo mode (you can see it in action in the trailer).

Wow this game looks like its got everything in it. A bit of a Disney x Fantasy Life thing going on. Looks like it could actually be huge and become a 3rd party breakout title for the 3ds. If this were to come stateside I would definitely be intrigued...
 
I assume you can, but I hope you can play as a Male Mii, it looks extremely catered to Girl Miis, I mean I don't know if I want to go around with my Mii in a dress, then again, my Mii is wearing the Princess Goldilocks hair in Mii Plaza and looks fabulous, so why am I complaining?! XD
 
The trailer does a good job of saying, "if you are a boy, FUCK YOU!" Good job there Namco. SMH.

The disney character models look really impressive.

BTW Another Disney thing, another no Hercules references. makes me really sad.

I'll buy it... :) Because I'm a sucker for all things Disney and Animal Crossing.

Wow, those Disney character models look great. A bit out of place side-by-side with the Mii-like characters, though.

Some Disney-themed DS games never arrived in the West, such as Motto! Stitch! DS: Rhythm de Rakugaki Daisakusen ♪ and Winnie the Pooh’s Hundred Acre Woods Cooking Book.

That got localized, at least in the US.

EDIT: Wait, Motto! Stitch! was the sequel to Stitch Jam? Guess not, then.
 
As an Animal Crossing fan and unabashed Disneyland lover I am really really intrigued.

Hope for awesome versions of the attractions (rides) in this game somehow

ummmmm...

also it seems more like a Tomodachi Collection than an Animal Crossing clone


edit: wait, it has combat? lol

Gotta love that obligatory 'welcome' pose Mickey does 80% time in Disneyland.
It's asking a lot, but I sort of wish they'd configure Mickey in a way that his mouth and ears face the camera akin to his 2D artwork, like they did with Sonic recently. Having his mouth in front always feels weird and in Kingdom Hearts, he's stuck in a perpetual smile.

The game looks nice even if I'm not its target audience. Feel more excited for it than Disney Infinity, actually.
