So I did it... I ordered Nintendogs.

Yes. I'm now semi-happily awaiting delivery from the good people at lik-sang of that brand new "shout at Japanese dogs" game. Or "Nintendogs" to give it the more usual title. Anyone else have it and want to post some impressions?

Next up; Electroplankton.

Wow. There's something about that game that looks really refreshing and innovative - a break from all those violent games.

I've never seen such an interactice 3D game myself and these puppies look quite cute.
I'm seriously thinking of getting a DS especialy now that a Zelda game is also going to be released.

Looking at that video it seems pretty cool actually, it was just the name that made me laugh. Looks like a girls game though

Why? Aren't guys allowed to show love and affection to puppies?

Hm, looks like a 3D version of the circa 2000 PC games Catz and Dogz. The concept is nice, but it gets old very quickly.

Well we've had it for about 3/4 weeks now, and my girlfriend plays it quite happily for 2+ hours every single day.

I've not managed to play it too much - although walking them is always fun when you're yanking on the lead to stop them.

Interestingly, respected Japanese magazine Famitsu gave Nintendogs a perfect 40/40. The only other games to do this are Ocarina of Time, Wind Waker, Vagrant Story and Soul Calibur.
