Review Nintendogs + Cats (3DS)
New leash on life
The original Nintendogs blew many away upon its release way back in 2006 – here was a game designed to show off the DS in full, with voice recognition, plenty of touchscreen functions and even a communication feature called Bark Mode that let consoles exchange data automatically. Fast forward five years and we've got Nintendogs +...

Are we barking up the wrong tree?
It has been 12 long years since we last heard the infamous instructions of "Lucky, Daisy, Baxter" while we sat in a completely sound-proofed room attempting to teach our dog its name in the 3DS' Nintendogs + Cats.

About The Game
nintendogs puppies are back in the palm of your hand on the Nintendo 3DS system, with even cuter and more expressive puppies and, for the first time, kittens!
The fun from the original nintendogs game returns, with multiple breeds to choose from, accessories for your puppies and kittens to wear, and the ability to let your puppies and kittens train and compete in different challenges and activities.
FEATURES:
More than 20 breeds to choose from
Each puppy and kitten has unique coloring and personality possibilities.

Puppies and kittens come to life

Adorably life-like puppies and kittens react to your touch and your voice using the built-in camera, touch screen and microphone. The facial-recognition technologies on the Nintendo 3DS even let puppies recognize their owners.
You can take pictures of your puppies and kittens by simply tapping the camera icon on the screen, which you can save to your album and share with your friends.

Play with your puppies and kittens in your world
With the Nintendo 3DS augmented-reality feature, you can watch your puppy play on your dining room table or sit in the palm of your hand.
You will be able to walk with your puppy and have your steps counted by the built-in pedometer on the Nintendo 3DS system when you have the game inserted and in sleep mode.

Ooh I just hoped this would be in 3D, cute dogs Thnxx ninty
Have the original and this is yet another must by for me. Watashi wa neko ga daisuki! (I love cats!)
I'm so ashamed how much this new Nintendogs has got me excited. I mean, dude, they actually look fluffy! And kittens! I love the little pitter-patter of digital paws on a pixel floor! :3
Yay cats! I love Kitty Cats!
OH MY GOD!!!!!! MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED!!!!! A NEW NINTENDOGS!!!!!!!!!!! I HOPE I'LL FALL IN LOVE WITH THIS LIKE I DID NINTENDOGS: BEST FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHH!!!!!!! I CAN'T WAIT MUCH LONGER!!!!!!!!
My sisters will ambush this. LOVE Puppies, they do.
I WANT THIS GAME SO MUCH!!!!!!

Nintendogs +Cats

|sf>I skipped out of the first series, since it was just dogs, but I'm going to keep an eye on this one. I'd like to know whether the cats are just window dressing or if you can raise just the cats (without bothering with the dogs).
@ Otaku
Wii Party has board game island. But it looks wiki wuhu island to me.
OMG! there are miis too?
Puppies! Kitties!
XD
I will probably pick this one up as I love cats and my fiance loves dogs; she had fun with the first one.
Nintendogs + Cats will be my title of choice! I'm soooo looking forward to it! It would be even better if you can somehow "import" a puppy from the original Nintendogs. I still care so much about my first puppy that I got 5 years ago, a very sweet Shih-Tzu.
I enjoyed the first Nintendogs game, but that was years ago on the NDS, now a Nintendogs + Cats + MIIS???? Awesome! I just hope this game has alot of features and things to do, unlike the other Nintendogs.
I don't get it.
nintendogs was my first game on ds. now i have 40 games. Not saying that Nintendogs is a bad game but youll get bored of it after some time. Like really bored that youll probably wont come back to it. So Ill think hard about this one..
Man! These graphics and technology prove what Nintendo can do if they feel like it! Take that Microsoft and Sony! (Let's see how Sony rips this one off...)
omg!!! i have been waiting for a nintendcats but instead it dogs and cats!!!! wow!
so what dogs are with each version. poodle + ? golden retrever+? bull dog + ? does anyone know???
Just imagine. The dogs pop out of the screen and lick you or whatever. That is so freeking cool!
@ Atomic Wii Man You have a Wii so, you know what's a Mii right?
@ Leonidas Are you greek?
This is going to be Launch Title(s), I wonder why they took so long.
I remember when I first played Nintendogs. It was so fun. Then after I stopped playing and got back to it, my dogs were in horrible condition. They were starving, parched, and filthy. That's what the game said at least.
so cute it burns!
SO FLUFFY
I want to have a cute Shih-Tzu puppy!
My Husky Sammy is my profile pic! I love this game it is so cute!
I wish they had more breeds of cats to start out...you can only have 3 so far in my experience, but I just got the game.
Do you unlock more cat breeds later?
I just LOVE my german shepered named Czarny (It's pronounced Charny it's a polish word that mean black because he is mostly black) I really like the pedometer a lot i use it after i get my coins for the day. I think it's a great game, for boys and girls.
Try different AR cards in the AR camera for ubber cuteness!
is it better then mario games? hell no!, i have it, and its more of a simple, relaxed game, no missions, not my type of games though
THIS GAME SEEMS AMAZING!!! i bought it the first day it came out i didnt and still dont have a 3ds but am looking forward to getting one so i can play this game it seems so much better than the the original
How do you get cats?
I have this game for my 3DS its very good! Highly recommend. c:
@Kawaiigaga how do you get your dog too learn how to fetch
This game is amazing its like a second life without worries
I just LOVE Nintendogs + cats. First i had the regular one, but this version is WAY better! I highly recommend it!
@ChaosTheChao- Once you buy a dog, you will see 3 types of cats that you can buy in the Kennel. (I think you unlock more breeds...)
@Justaguest- This Nintendogs is so much better. Instead of waiting 30 minutes to walk, you walk whenever you want, you can do up to 6 competitions per day, you can get kittens (Duh!), and so much more! This one will keep you playing!
@singie1- The only difference between the versions is that you start out with different breeds. You will soon unlock ALL breeds, so that means each version has all the breeds, but you just unlock them in different orders.
luv it!!
in 3 months im getting it. CANT WAIT! My Dog is Going too have a mate will be number one# Number too is too make sure they only have one puppy#
I hope there will come a digital download of this game
