Animal Crossing

Anyone thinking of importing this fine game should pick up the latest copy of Cube magazine. It has a free version of action replay "lite", which acts as a Freeloader disc for this specific game and allows you to play the imported version.

It also unlocks games such as Zelda and Mario Bros, which are only usually unlockable using an e-Reader.

Really? Has this been tested "independently" by any games sites?

I'd say AC is one of the very few reasons anyone would bother to get the Freeloader (now that Metroid Prime is out over here).

Sounds a bit too good to be true - I mean, why would Freeloader's parent company give out for half nothing the only reason for getting one in the first place!

Well I have Animal Crossing at home, so as soon as I get a chance I'll try it out, but from the blurb in the mag itself, it certainly seems to be that way.

I think he meant you can only use the cover disc specifically for Animal Crossing only....

Or am I being thick

Just tried it out there and it works perfectly - loads up Animal Crossing no problem and also allowed me to get the Ice Climbers, Mario Bros, Super Mario Bros and Legend of Zelda NES games, which I wouldn't have been able to get without an e-Reader. I'm resisting the other cheats.

So anyway, if you're going to import Animal Crossing, don't buy a Freeloader disc, just get this months issue of Cube (terrible magazine by the way).
