Nintendogs Dalmatian & Friends - Nintendo DS

Put a puppy inside your Nintendo DS! Described as a "puppy simulator", this innovative new title gives you a small amount of money to purchase your own puppy...and from there, the sky's the limit! Using the Nintendo DS's built-in microphone, you can name your dog, and then teach him tricks! Nintendogs also makes heavy use of the DS Touch Screen. Use the stylus to pet your dog, rub him on the belly, or touch his nose! But be careful: different dog breeds have different personalities, and not all like to be treated the same way.

Purchase one of several breeds available at the beginning of the game, then start spending time with your pup. Throw flying discs and balls to improve the pup's agility, bathe it when it gets dirty, and repeat voice commands to train the dog to do tricks. If you train it well enough, you'll excel in dog shows and agility contests, which will earn you money to buy other supplies and puppy breeds. When you earn enough cash, you can buy even more puppies to live with yours.

Walking your pup around the neighborhood is vital, as you'll find supplies and meet other dogs. Over time, your pup's stamina will increase so you can explore farther and farther. You can also interact wirelessly with your friends' nintendogs—you can set your DS to bark at you whenever another puppy is within wireless range.
