What Is It?
Nintendogs is the first in one of the most popular games Nintendo has ever made. Released in 2005 it is still going very strongly, becoming one of Nintendo's most popular games. This is the Dalmation and Friends version I am reviewing. Why Buy It?
I got it for my Christmas, and I had been thinking of buying a Nintendogs game for a while now. There were a couple of reasons to buy it. First if you have always wanted a dog ... ...What Is It Compatible With?
Nintendogs game is compatible with the Nintendo DS (Or DS Lite) which is a handheld games console with a revolutionary touch screen pad which makes it different. It will NOT work in another Nintendo product like the Gameboy or Wii. Age Range
I'm a little confused about the age range. The age range is so varied as it is really aimed for younger people, it would appeal to anyone. However what I noticed is that ...

Choosing Your Puppy
Initially when you insert the game you are given some money and the first stop is at the kennels where you can choose from some of the breeds available to you. For each breed there are three different dogs, some male some female, each have their own personalities so it is worthwhile looking at all the dogs before committing to buy one.

...favourite feature =)). Nintendogs supports a link-up method through the Nintendo DS's built-in wireless networking capabilities. A player can link his or her system with that of another person who owns a copy of Nintendogs to let the players' puppies play together. This is called "Bark Mode".

Advantages: Great fun for any age Disadvantages: None that i can think of
I got this game a couple of months ago and i'm still hooked. It is great fun and is for all ages. I play it myself as does my 2.5 year old son so the opportunity is endless! It is a simple yet stimulating game that will keep you entertained for months! It is also great for younger children as it teaches them the responsability of looking after a pet. From feeding to bathing, walking to training this game will never get boring. Once you have trained ... ...over etc) using the built in mic you can enter your dog in obedience trials.

Advantages: Decent graphics Disadvantages: Far too much like a high tech tamagotchi
I've already reviewed the Labrador version of this game and as I've played all of them the reviews are going to be almost identical. The only difference between the different versions are the type of dogs available for you to select from. In this review I'll just do a short summary of the problems I explained in the Labrador review. If you're looking for something more than a high tech tamagotchi you will not find it here. In this game you do the ... ...etc. You can also enter competitions for which you will have to train your dog quite a bit which is rather tedious otherwise you have no chance of winning. If you win you can then use this money to buy the dog treats, toys etc.
Voice recognition is a problem, you may find that having selected a name for your dog and had your pronunciation of it saved to the DS, that the DS will not pick it up when you say it meaning you can go no further as the ...
