About
"Nintendogs is a video game, similar to a virtual pet, made for the Nintendo DS. The player is given the ability to interact with virtual puppies via the DS stylus, touchscreen and microphone. It began as a project for the GameCube, but was later scrapped and re-worked for the dual-screen portable." - Wikipedia

"In Nintendogs, you can raise up to three adorable puppies and play with them to your heart's content. Teach your pups new tricks: just speak into the system's microphone and they'll respond to the voice commands you've taught them. There will even be modes in Puppy Times* that support a wireless connection." - IGN
