Nintendo doesn't seem to be very interested in reviving the Nintendogs franchise for the time being (well if you ignore the recent patent that cropped up), so it's fallen to publisher Fireshine Games to pick up the pieces with Little Friends: Puppy Island, a cosy simulation game that sees you take care of your very own pooch on a hot and sunny tropical island.
You'll be making friends with Shibas, Labradors, Corgis, Huskies, Pugs, and more with a total of 9 unique breeds to discover and adopt. You'll need to take good care of them too by bathing, brushing, feeding, walking, and playing with them.
Here's a peek at the key features:
- Little Friends On Holiday! - Set off on an exciting new adventure that takes your puppy care experience even further! Explore an entire paradise island, find exciting new locations, dig up treasures and embrace your adventurous side with your new Little Friends.
- Explore Puppy Island! - Take your lovable companion out on their very own adventure across an island filled with puppies! Discover sandy beaches, snowy mountains, cherry blossom sanctuaries and so much more! What will you uncover on your adventure?
- Become Puppy Pals! - Become friends with 9 different breeds of puppies and find the perfect companions to enjoy your adventure with! Meet new puppies while out on walks and bring them home to care for them. Take photos using the in-game camera to make memories that last a lifetime.
- Build The Ultimate Puppy Paradise! - Discover new locations throughout the island to build new toy, clothing and accessory shops and unlock pawsome new items for your puppies!
- Enjoy Puppy Care! - Brush, bathe, feed and play with your pups to give them everything they need for their adventures! Improve their obedience, agility, endurance & more, levelling up their stats to gain access to exciting new areas of the island.

Cute little doggos.
YAAAY...!!! 😃😃😃
Another Nintendogs game by 3rd party developer.
This looks like Nintendogs, surely the big N could trademark these specific dog breeds, to stop this happening, or they could just release a Switch version of the game themselves.
Is there literally anyone that has played these games? Are they for actual children or can a 30-something un-ironically enjoy them as nostalgia for Nintendogs?
I mean I play kids games, I am a massive kid at heart, but I don't know if this is a step too far even for me XD
@johnvboy Trademark dog breeds?
@Nanami_Ataraxia I'm 40 and am getting this. It seems right up my alley
@Synecdoche,
I was kidding, I have edited my post with ... to make things a little more clear.
Games like this make me wish Nintendo would just release a mini mic for voice commands.
there was a Nintendogs on the 3DS and nobody bought it so no wonder there isn't a Nintendogs on Switch
@Pokefanmum82
Know what? I might give this a go then thanks!
My 6 year old son has been begging us for a puppy, but he’s also getting into gaming more and more and this is a whole lot more realistic for us. I was thinking about getting him Nintendogs but with this being newer, it may be the go to. Hopefully it’s actually good.
@johnvboy You can’t trademark an existing dog breed.
@PrincessAria,
I was joking, I know you can't.
