Nintendogs


They're cute. They're friendly. They pee on the virtual rug

There are game-like elements - Frisbee fetch in a contest against other dogs and the clock - but the real appeal comes from the care of your critter. If you don't have the nurturing gene or the attention span to keep a virtual animal alive, steer clear - but if you're looking for something that's totally nonviolent and uses all your DS's whistles and bells, Nintendogs is it.

You'll love
  • Shows off everything your DS can do
  • Not as big a time sink as you'd think
  • Gosh, they're cute
You'll hate
  • Voice commands are tricky in public
  • The novelty of going walkies wears off
  • They just pretend to love you
