So today during my lunch break I went to Shibuya and picked up Shiba and Chihuahua Nintendogs. Oddly enough while picking it up there were 7 other people in the store who were also buying all 3 versions. 4 of those people were women who didn't look like typical gamers. If people can get past the horrible Utada commercial for Nintendogs it may do pretty well with the non-hardcore crowd...

**offtopic begin**
While there I was tempted to pick up Shutokou Battle for PSP but man I have like so many racers for it. Are any action/adventure games planned for the DS or PSP anytime soon?
**offtopic end**

Haven't had enough time to crack open the box and mess with it yet but I'm planning to do so during my dinner break tonight at the office.

Did anyone else pick it up yet? And have you had time to mess around with it?

Until I have time to write a review and take some pics here's a crappy shot of the boxes that I picked up...

[Late Stage Marxist]

Do you buy the breeds individually or are they included in all versions? Is there a list of breeds available?

 

[demi]

I think you can eventually unlock all the dogs?

I get the feeling you like to exaggerate.

You're telling me 21 copies of Nintendogs were being sold at the very moment you went to pick up your copies? This game's going to be Nintendo's fastest million-seller ever, if that's the case. ;p

There's already a huge Nintendogs thread, BTW: http://forums.gaming-age.com/showthread.php?t=40934

Resistance is futile. Give in and buy it. You know you want to...no, you *have* to.

When I went to Yodobashi there were at least 8 really cute girls in line to buy Nintendogs, and most of them had more than one copy.

Spoiler

They were actually all guys

Guys remember to check out the Official Drinky Club Nintendogs blog that should be going live within a few days. If you have any questions at all regarding the game you can find it there and also encounter detailed impressions of the game.

It's coming. I had some serious fun with Drinky last night, and started to work out how to train him. I don't know how much detail to go into though, as it's the kind of stuff that's fun to work out yourself.

Will update when I have a spare minute. Work is a nightmare right now.

cool cool no worries as long as you are having F-U-N

Actually 9 were sold including mine.

buying all 3 versions.

^^ That's bad grammar: what I meant to say was "buying on of the three versions" My bad.

Then again, at the same time 2 PSPs were sold as well... One guy picked up 4 PSP games with his PSP... Store was just unusually busy today dunno why...

That being said, I think alot of people predicting a Nintendogs saviour will see Nintendogs sell 20-40K in it's first week of release....
