DS News | A New Nintendog For Europe?

By Barry Lewis 18.04.2006 11

Quick News: Having sold more than 2 Million copies in Europe Nintendogs has a mysterious new version being listed by top UK retailer GAME. Available to pre-order for June 16th comes Nintendogs - Dalmation & Friends, a title that has not yet been sold in any region. It is unclear whether this is the first confirmation of a new version, or a fatal breakdown in communications, but with E3 round the corner we should know more soon.

Ahh man, I so would have bought a dalmation version if it was part of the initial set!

Interesting stuff..

Well it'd be advisable wouldnt it? New Nintendogs = Many more sales.


Hopefully this is true. Would be stupid of NInty not to keep interest high on such a popular brand.

Just had a thought, Brain Training on the 9th of June:

* DS Lite (White) launches with Brain Training on the 9th.

* DS Lite (Other Colours) launch with Nintendogs Dalmation on the 16th.

It would follow the successful Japanese launch trend and surely have phenomenal System and Game sales!

That's a tasty offer, however I don't see them doing a phased colour launch over here. No need, demand won't be as big and they have full warning of manufacturing problems now.

pffft, the dalmation... I've had that breed for aaaaages Smilie

does anybody know if any new colours are gonna be out for the DS Lite, or is it still the two blue colours?

Hopefully they'll have a black one... I'm not getting it unless it's black damnit!! Plus it'd make sense with the black Revolution...

This is good news and bad news in small respect. This is good news because adament Nintendog fan's, like myself, want more breeds, and more extras. An additional Nintendo WFC feature wouldn't go a miss. The small bad news is that NOE are having a few UK celebrations of Nintendog's Barkmode and having Miyamoto's exclusive Dalmation breed (which is hard to unlock in the game) so really visiting this event would be pointless now if Nintendo will eventually release that breed as a starting breed.

Interesting to say the least. If it's really coming out I wonder why it's being released in Europe first?

I think it's GAME mucking up to be honest. It's one of the hidden characters, why go and release a version that makes it lose its exclusivity?

(Already have one anyway! Smilie)
