    The graphics are awesome and the game is really fun the first day , but it gets so boring after a while you can only take your dog out once an hour and compete 3 times a day.

  1. It's sad to have to say that, since we still think Nintendogs is an amazing achievement and a great game - it's just not a great game for very long. In other words, if you're a grown-up, if there are limits to your patience and your time, and if you want a game that's not just for Christmas, it's probably not a good idea to pick Nintendogs.

    If you've yet to play Nintendogs, this new version is another ace reason to get involved. [Aug 2006, p.81]

    The "game" itself is entirely unchanged, with the same old firsbee competititions, agility and obedience trials. [Aug 2006, p.66]
