To answer any confusion, Nintendogs is basically a Tamagochi for the Nintendo DS, where you raise a dog.

MO:

Welsh Corgis are the best!

It's like a Tamagotchi, but infinitely more realistic/interactive...  you do the whole thing with touchscreen/microphone, it's got a ton of depth.

  Actually, it was original intended for people in Japan who work too much to have time to take care of a real dog...  and I don't know *too* many businessmen under the age of twelve.  It became a huge hit, selling millions over a month or so, so they translated it to English.

Video games are for everybody,though there are games I own that I wouldn't let my son play,I find myself playing a lot of his games.Me and my boy just went through a huge Super Smash Brothers binge here awhile ago.

Damn, it's a good thing I'm not so insecure that I have to put a label on everything and only allow myself to enjoy what's clearly fitting for someone of my age and gender.  Funny, my female roommate really likes it too, more than I do, and a 20-year-old friend from Sweden gave me $50US to send him a copy since Europe doesn't get it for another month or two.  We must all wish we were 9-year-old girls on the inside!

  At least pick a game with some redeeming value...  gameplay > all when it comes to games, whether it's in the form of the new Zelda title, Contra for NES, or perhaps a silly, cute dog simulator with realistic behavior.

Contra and Zelda kick ass, and i'd probably get Nintendogs if I had a DS
