Talk:Animal Crossing

Is it really?
I don't think it's called AC:PG, but rather that was just part of the logo. Wasn't it just called Animal Crossing? Nintendo Lover  is AWESOME! You knew that!  19:24, 10 November 2010 (EST) -- Ja ke  19:51, 10 November 2010 (EST) I don't know... if the original title WAS just Animal Crossing, than it should be (GCN). Otherwise just leave it. Nintendo Lover  is AWESOME! You knew that!  20:54, 10 November 2010 (EST) Oh well... that's settled then. Nintendo Lover  is AWESOME! You knew that!  07:44, 11 November 2010 (EST)
 * Actually after looking into it, it seems that there really isn't an 'official name'. It's referred to as Animal Crossing, Animal Crossing: Population Growing, and even Animal Crossing Game Cube. Here's my reasoning for renaming the page. 'Animal Crossing' can be used in reference to the series as a whole, and 'Animal Crossing Game Cube' doesn't even sound like a video game title. The only reason I prefer 'Population Growing to the other two is because it feels like more of an actual title and fits in with those of the other games.
 * If anyone else thinks differently, please post here. This is entirely up for debate. If you feel that it's better as 'Animal Crossing (GCN)', feel free to move it back. :)
 * I know that this isn't the best way to go about this, but judging from Wikipedia's Animal Crossing infobox, the title of the first game is indeed 'Animal Crossing'. So I suppose it would be best to move it back to 'Animal Crossing (GCN)' and leave a redirect on this page. My mistake. :P -- Ja ke  21:04, 10 November 2010 (EST)
 * On Zeldapedia (on Wikia...), they had The Legend of Zelda as the game, with the series at The Legend of Zelda series. And you forgot the option of Animal Crossing (game)... SuperAlpaca 10:45, 11 November 2010 (EST)

It seems like most think of it as Animal Crossing (GCN), but maybe we should add "It is also refered to as Animal Crossing: Population Growing" at the top of the article. -- 76.100.111.16 17:02, 28 December 2010 (EST)
 * Thanks for the tip. I've added it to the article as requested. :) -- Ja ke  17:43, 28 December 2010 (EST)

Move
I don't believe that "GCN" is an official initialism, so I propose that we move this to something like "Animal Crossing (GameCube)" or "Animal Crossing (Game)". Pakkun 08:36, 22 December 2012 (EST)

Animal Crossing website is down
I just went to the site and it seems Nintendo took it down. Should we remove it?

 * Hi, Pac-banana! The article probably won't be retitled, because the consensus has been that the game wasn't called "Population Growling"; rather, its title was just "Animal Crossing," with "Population Growling" as an embellishment. That was accommodated in the article with the "(sometimes subtitled Population Growing)" note in the first sentence. -Sky (talk)   23:28, July 31, 2015 (EDT)
 * Ninja'd. It's already stated in the article itself: "(sometimes subtitled Population Growing)". I think just "Animal Crossing" is the name, though. 23:29, July 31, 2015 (EDT)
