Taito Brings Pet Shop to DS

Taito have announced the arrival of My Pet Shop for DS in America and Europe.

The studio aims to add to the long list of virtual pet simulators on Nintnedo's handheld by offering a range of different animals to adopt and care for. Over 40 different critters can be selected - from a purring cat to a bone munching dog, to the less conventional pets like penguin and panda. You'll be buying and collecting items, and using the DS stylus to care and perform tricks with your new found friends.

But wait, there's more - a story - help you mum in a new pet store launched in Green Town. Your mum'll give you moneys for hard earned work, which in turn can be exchanged for items or weapons (we wish).

You can pick up your virtual pets from 27th February 2009 in Europe and March 10th 2009 in the US.
