EA’s working on a brand new title - SimAnimals - that will be a lot like Viva Pinata…

EA announced their latest addition to the Sim franchise today – SimAnimals. The game will be a lot like Viva Pinata and will allow you to create your own environment, in which to you can watch your animals develop and interact with each other. The game will supposedly be more casual and gamer friendly and will do away with confusing dials and stuff in the interface (that a few Sims games had), in favor of a simple giant hand much like the Black&White series.

The game seems to be a Nintendo exclusive, since only two platforms were mentioned – Nintendo DS and Wii.
