Nintendogs
So at the same time Nintendo will release their pink DS (April 21st), they will also release the game everyone (at least teenage girls and Utada Hikaru) is talking about these days…
What Nintendogs is can be summed up in a short made-up formula like “dog Tamagotchi”, but it is a bit better than that. First, instead of being a weird animal with no shape, it is a dog, with dog’s needs and dog’s lifestyle (apparently you need to pick up poo after your dog). Plus, it comes on a touch screen console, so you can really do weird interraction with your virtual pet (I mean “weird” in a softcore nice positive way, such as petting, scratching, playing etc, ok?). That, and the fact that the DS has better computing capabilities than the little plastic egg used to…
Apparently, if you are playing with your dog, and someone else comes with theirs in the wi-fi radius of your DS, your dog will bark at theirs and you will be as embarrassed as in real life.
The game comes in 3 packs, and you need to choose which breed of dog you want, from one of the packages. I think they should make it like race cars games and allow you to make money by selling your dog so you can buy a new and more expensive one…

That’s a little weird. Sadly, people would go crazy for a “Nintendog”.

I just heard about this game a few DAYS ago and I’m in love with the idea, but the only problem is I’m in the U.S. and I have to wait *sniffle* I’ve been to like 40 websites and some of them don’t give me a relese date, but 1 site did and it got into soooooo much detail I can’t beleieve it. It said “2005″. What the!!?? ok hold off on the details please I can’t handle it. I need a specific date cause I might spend my money b4 then.(if ya know what I mean *wink*) If anyone can give me at least a date with a month, then I’d appreciate it. *sniffle* I can’t wait 4 it to come out!!!!
