Animal Crossing: Emotional, Spendthrifty Folk
Animal Crossing: City Folk is sticking to the formula laid down by Wild World fairly rigidly, but it's not all a rehash. Some new outlets and characters can be found in the city section next to your village, two of which have been recently showcased in daily videos at City Folk's official Japanese site.
The first of these stars Dr. Shrunk, whose dubious comedic talents have finally landed him the big one: a gig at City Folk's Theater. Here, you'll be able to watch the good doctor take to the stage, 'enjoy' his stand-up routine, and hopefully learn a brand new emotion in the process -- as you do. The second video (after the break) covers the Auction House (where you'll be able to offer items for those on your Wii's friend list to bid on), which appears to be manned by a Gyroid. Perhaps they ran out of ideas for new talking animals.

Well, in Wild World there are no talking gyroids like in the original AC. Only the singing ones were there because you could either save from your bed or just by pressing start.

Gyroids look a lot like a Kirby enemy
strange.

I believe he's supposed to be like the talking Gyroid outside your house from the first Animal Crossing... since he was able to auction items off as well.
Glad to see he's back - I preferred him to selling sentimental items than to selling them to Nook. :)
