Animal Crossing: Wild World players who connect to the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection today are discovering that the Nintendo president is sending out a New Year's treat: a "personalized" letter with a special and rare item that players can place in their house. The rare item that players receive is a coin taken from the Super Mario Bros. game, when you walk up to it and touch the coin is will let out a familiar "ba-ding!" sound effect.

This letter is most likely only a temporary gift so if you haven't already, get online and get yours, just connect your game to the Nintendo Wi-Fi connection service. You don't have to visit a village, just opening your gates is good enough for Nintendo to drop the item into your mailbox.

Hey, thanks. I wouldn't have known about this if I hadn't read it here, and likely missed out on the gift. Thanks.
