MODEL- NTRPAD7E           VENDOR- NINTENDO

FEATURES- Nintendogs (Dalmation) DS
       Nintendogs, which comes in four versions, features puppies of the
        most popular dog breeds, including Chihuahuas, Labrador retrievers,
        beagles and German shepherds. Each version of the game comes with
        six breeds to choose from at the start, and additional breeds are
        unlocked as you play the game or interact wirelessly with other
        Nintendogs players. All 19 breeds are unlockable in each version.
       This is your pet, and although it does not shed, it still needs your
        love. With the stylus, you pet your Nintendog, all the way from
        head pats to belly rubs. The more love you give, the more your
        Nintendog will bond with you. As your puppy becomes your best
        friend, you use the built-in microphone to teach your dog its name
        and many tricks! So after you train your dog to know its name, it
        will come to you (and your DS's bottom screen) when you call its
        name. After it learns a trick, it will perform that trick when you
        tell it to. For example, after it learns the sit command, your pup
        will take a seat each time you say "sit."
       Of course, you need to care for your little pup. This includes
        regular feeding, watering, walking and bath time. If you are a
        person who does not play video games every day, do not worry about
        anything bad happening to your Nintendog if you do not get to it
        every day. Nintendogs do not die, and they stay puppies forever. If
        you have not played the game for a few days, though, your puppy
        will be thirsty, hungry and might need a bath when you start the
        game up.
       Your puppy needs to go out for walks, naturally, but these walks are
        special. In addition to giving your pup some exercise, your
        Nintendog will come across special item boxes. Inside these boxes
        are all sorts of goodies, from apparel to toys. With tons of items
        to be found, your Nintendog will always be stylin' or at least have
        a fun ball to chase around.
       Nintendogs is not all pet and prim. There are trophies to be won,
        and money to be made! Show that your Nintendog is best in show by
        winning the three events: disc competition, agility trials and
        obedience trials.
       In obedience, you score big points when your puppy does a certain
        set of tricks at your command, so grooming and a good relationship
        with its master is vital. With agility trials and the disc
        competition, you will use the touch screen to throw a flying disc
        or lead your dog through an agility course. These two require some
        practice before you actually enter the events (although some dogs
        are just naturals at catching a disc).
       With the money that you earn from the events, you can buy supplies
        and more dogs from the kennel! Do not let your Nintendog get
        lonely. You can keep up to three dogs at a time, and you can store
        more at the "dog hotel" where they will look after your dogs.
       If another person is playing Nintendogs within the Nintendo DS's
        wireless range, the two of you can meet up in Bark Mode. When you
        go into bark mode, your DS searches for a wireless partner. When
        you have found a match, your dog will play with that person's dog!
       You can also bring gifts into Bark Mode and swap them with other
        Nintendogs players. Also, if you had not previously unlocked the
        breed of dog that you just met up with in Bark Mode, the breed will
        now be available in your kennel.
       This truly unique experience will do more than bring you and your
        Nintendog together. It opens your eyes to a whole new way to play
        video games!
