Animal Crossing: New Duty is a fictional first-person shooter video game frequently featured on the fictitious sitcom Cat on the Roof. Judging by its compatibility on Griffin's red GameCube, it would have been developed and published by Nintendo of America. Every character, including the main playable one, is anthropomorphic. As a villager drafted to partake in different wars (depending on which mission), the player in can choose to join an army/battalion/troop/militia.

The game is a favourite of Griffin's, as anything related to the game is mentioned in about 67% of all episodes of the entire series (82 episodes). It is meant to lampoon on the stereotypical pre-Obama era pop culture portrayals of video games.

Characters

• Property Owner – The player. They live in a war-ridden village, and own property in which expanding their arsenal is the main objective.

• Tom Crook – Armory store owner. As a war veteran, he tends to cuss a lot.
• General P. T. S. D. Trigger – he reminds the player save their traumatic war memories to look back on progress after a game.

Trivia

• It was released in September 2004.
• Imagine if Nintendo and Activision were to ever go full Rockstar, this will be the result.
• The game, like the show it belongs in, is really just one big comedy.
• It is a thematic crossover between two polar extremes: peace and war.
• Somewhere in the Bronx, there were about 3 homicides a week that was supposedly related to the game between 2006 and 2007. ("Generational Conflict on the Roof", season 3)
