Anyone get it yet? I'm thinking about getting a DS just to play it. Thoughts? Is it as fun as it looks?

[Clawson]

I was going through the same thing earlier thinking it's an awesome concept and all but I'm going to wait now until the DS price lowers and I can get it for cheap.

Unless it sweeps the reviews then I may make the purchase.

[Your Mom]

The price of the DS just dropped to 129.95 and you get Mario with it

[Clawson]

Sigh....guess I'm probably going to be digging into my wallet yet again.

I tried playing the demo at Best Buy, and was entirely underwhelmed by it. It could be a decent-enough small diversion, but was pretty meh IMO.

I played the game at Nintendo All Stars and it's brilliant. More fun than a tamagotchi, and playing with other people's dogs is great.

By the way Tamagotchi DS is out soon too.

Ubiased version, please.

Reflecto is the first person I've seen not wowed by how fun it was. So I'm thinking that means something

[Clawson]

IGN has given it an 8.8 whilst Gamespot has given it a 9.1 so we'll see.

[Laice07]

Gamespot giving a game a higher review then IGN is a rarity, but both seemed to enjoy it immensly. Looks fun, but that DS is damn expensive, I'll definently wait.

It sounds sad but this is the sole reason I went out and bought a DS. I wanted to play with the cute ickle doggies ^_^

[Heroin Bob]

I got it last night. I love it. The voice commands make even better. The dogs come to whatever you name them, and you name the tricks. So if you yell "SHUT THE HELL UP" it will rolls on its stomach. Really fun.

It's the future of virtual pets. It's sort of like those PC games you can get, where you can choose pets cats and dogs. But why buy a DS and the game for an arm and leg when you can just adopt a real cat or dog?

My building doesn't allow pets

[The Kraig]

Suckage. I'd wait for Nintencats, just because cats are better. (¬_¬)

Nintencats hasn't actually been thought of/made for anyone getting excited there. I'd probably really want Nintencats too, while neglecting my real one.

Slightly dead topic, but meh:

It is, without question, the cutest game ever and a surprisingly good stress reliever. Giving your dog a bath is giggly fun, but the contests are a necessary evil (I don't really prefer doing disc or obediance competitions, but it's undeniably the best way to earn money.)

It also shows off the capabilities of the DS. Your dog will learn its name and tricks through the built-in microphone, and Bark Mode is a cool way to go afds and still pick up some treats (you can send your dog off with an item, and vice versa -- only problem is that not many people are going to own it as opposed to those crazy Japanese, so the odds of running into other people is fairly slim.)

Still, though, if you're not allowed pets at the apartment or just want a cute stress relief, by all means get it...

....besides, Animal Crossing is hitting the DS by the end of the year.

[The Kraig]

Didn't you hear Matzat, Nintendo are apparently big in Japan. (¬_¬)

[Herr Matzat]

[The Kraig]

Compared to pokemon, that's a grain of sand in the Sahara desert.

And that's not a good thing (I hated the whole pokemon merchandise crap).
