Nintendogs: Dalmation........ AND ****FRIENDS**** ^______________________^ by Jhoh Clbbl O_____O 10/18/2007, 8:48pm PDT
It's like a DS virtual pet game. At the very very beginning you go to the NINTENDO DOG KENNEL, and the first thing you do is knock on the door. Virtually.

I really don't want to actually seriously play this game. I don't really like dogs, moom has two of the most retarded dumb piece of shit dogs ever, although puppies are always nice. Anyway I don't know what is sad, virtually feeding and playing with a dog, or virtually getting into it on a regular basis.

Fortunately it's easy to stop playing. After about 20 minutes, having taught the dog a couple tricks, fed, watered, and taken the dog for a walk, that was it. It only has enough energy for one walk at first, and then gets tired and will only learn so many tricks (sit, lie down, roll over) before it's done and the game refuses to let you continue trying to teach it or taking it out for a walk. IT!!!!!!!!!!! So, after that 20 minutes, game over, for a literal real life day, because the game works by the DS's internal clock, so it tells you to try again tomorrow whenever something happens. I guess anyway, maybe just a simple restart counts as a "next day," although that would be kind of ridiculous.

So you pick your dog variety, which they have about 6 of to pick per game (there are like 2 or 3 others sold separately, because ever since the N64 Nintendo has always been really big on making you buy one game split into 3 parts, or peripherals required to play the latest games fuckin BULLSHIT). So you pick your dog and pay your virtual money for it (starting at $1000, then money gets spent on supplies or other dogs, I don't know how you earn this money but I guess it'll just come gradually?). Then you take your dog home and it runs you through the tutorials. First you name the dog by saying it into the microphone. If you don't want to talk into your microphone for a game, don't even start with this one, because the mic is a major part of Nintendogging. I named him FUCKER and then typed it in as FUCKER >:( with an angry face icon on the virtual keyboard. Then you teach it tricks, and it has these really specific rules for the trick things. You pet its head (virtually), then bring your stylus down its virtual nose in a very quick fashion, and it'll sit. Then hit the light bulb icon in the upper right, and say the name of your command (you can really call it anything you want). Then the game plays back a super low quality version of your voice so you sound like a RETARD, and a light bulb goes off over the dog's head to show that it understood. Do this 2 or 3 more times (apparently you can pick a more stubborn dog that is hard to train, WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS FAGGOT?) and it'll have the trick memorized.

There are other things in the game, like teaching it to catch frisbees, and then you can take it to competitions for fisbee catch and agility bloo bloo and obedience competition, and perhaps you earn money through that. I don't know if I really want to play a virtual pet dogs game for that long.

Aside from the idea of wasting my life with a non real dog (although it's definitely easier than having a real dog, PSH), it makes me feel a little depressed when you pet it and its eyes go all closed and happy and its head shakes. The animations are great and the dogs jump and scamper, and it makes me think, this thing is a PROGRAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE'RE ALL IN A COMPUTER MATRIX. But really, the virtual dog acts so happy that I don't know if I should really encourage it. I feel like Picard when he was in the gayest possible nexus fantasy ever and he sees the magic flashing christmas ornaments that have a supernova inside them like the one that vaporizes his entire fuckin crew in the previous scene, and he says THIS ISN'T RIGHT. That is how I feel when I see the Nintendog's virtual eyes close when I pet him. However I don't feel that way when I get the (virtual) dog to roll over. I am like, yay you actually did a thing I said (out loud ~_~). I guess it doesn't react to me saying "good" into the microphone, so I'm going to like NOT do that. :(

Also, there's something called a "bark mode," which is like a DS detector of other people who have a DS with Nintendogs running, and if there's someone else nearby with that, your dogs can interact. The chances of this happening have to be in the trillions. I'm sure they thought of this as a way to get fellow virtual dog owners to interact and fall in love but then distrust each other and start fighting and BITCH I WISH YOU WOUUUUUULD BURN MY MUTHAFUCKIN CLOOOOOOWOAOWOWOTHES, MILTON etc.

So anyway, I'd quit, but I kind of want to see what it looks like to do some of the competitions and shit.
