Nintendogs; I was SO excited to get it. Every one said it was THE best DS game out there. When I got it, I wasn't as pleased as I thought I would be. At first, you pick out a puppy and give it a name; it is fun and exciting teaching it to sit, lay, etc. You get to take it on walks, feed it, and enter it in competitions. I thought this was just *dandy* until I got bored with only being able to enter 3 competitions a day, so I bought another dog. I entered it in a contest right away, but UH-OH! I forgot. You have to train ANOTHER dog, walk it, feed it, and THEN earn money from it winning in contests. This became *very* tedious after about ten minutes, so I gave up. I ended up "donating" the dogs because I was sick of them.
TO SUM IT UP- For someone who doesn't or can't own a dog, this may be a good buy. For those who do, it just gets tedious. ALTHOUGH, it is fun to play for maybe 20-30 min. a day, but any longer and you get bored.
