Animal Crossing gets DLC

What’s this? Nintendo with DLC? And it’s not Japan-exclusive? Incredible…

All of you with a double life in a village populated by animals can now download a special Pikmin hat for your character. Did we mention it was free?
The special hat has been released in order to celebrate the launch of “NEW PLAY CONTROL! Pikin for the Nintendo Wii”

“If you have your Wii connected to the Internet, you’re already half way to receiving a stylish Pikmin hat that will make you the envy of all your friends!” says Nintendo.
