In my personal opinion, playing on an acoustic is like hiking with a backpack; playing on an electric is like hiking without one. Do as much of the first as you can, and the second will be a cakewalk.

And as magicninja says, acoustic guitars will callus and strengthen your fingers better than an electric. I almost always practice on an acoustic and only approach an electric if I want to add effects.
