Text: "Puppy Love: Nintendo has gone
to the dogs with this summer's most lovable and infectious DS title.
Complete with a box full of popular breeds, such as beagles, Yorkshire terriers
and Labrador retrievers, Nintendogs allows you to buy puppies, play with them,
nurture them and teach them tricks. A walk around the block proves to be an
adventure--stop at the park, where your puppy can play with other canines in
training, then jaunt to the pet supply store, where you can purchase toys,
collars and doggy shampoo. A well-cared-for puppy will respond in kind by
learning its name and voice commands that are associated with a collection of
tricks.
Once your pet has taken to your commands, you
can show it off in competitions that test its physical abilities and willingness
to behave on cue. Even when you're not training or showing your four-legged
friend, puppy interaction is precious--a game of fetch with a ball or disc often
turns into a prolonged scratching session with your little buddy rolling onto
its back to expose its soft belly. Dog lovers are sure to jump at the
opportunity to keep a pack of puppies in their pockets for a quick exchange of
affections on the go. -George S."
