I vote Nintendogs.

Nintendogs
Good things
> The breeds are realistic
> The graphics are clear
> The settings are realistic
> You can interact with other Nintendogs users
> It's enjoyable for both boys and girls
> You can use sound and the touch pad to really interact with your dog
> If you neglect your dog, you don't lose it
> You can train your dog tricks
> You can enter your dog in competitions
> It's like owning a real dog, for the people who can't have a real dog for whatever reason - the dogs act the way a real dog would
> Children and adults can play it
> The cheats on it aren't too unrealistic (eg. dogs turning purple)

Bad things
> After a while, the game becomes repetitive and boring
> It could come out in another version with more breeds - the current breeds are "boring" to some
> Dogs' names can only have so many letters
> The Nintendo DS can be bulky to carry around
> Playing in public may cause unwanted stares
> The chocolate Labrador has a black nose, which is impossible. Liver, or chocolate is when a dog can't produce eumelanin (black pigment) so the dog is turned from black to brown with a brown nose and yellow or light brown eyes.

I can't really comment on Dogz as I've never played it before I have, however, seen the graphics - they're much too pixel-y in my opinion. Too blocky and cheap-looking.

Don't let the graphics fool you, Dogz 5 is brilliant. I like the old-school cartoony style of the dogs. Also, you get tons more breeds.

Wait, is this Dogz on Nintendo DS or Dogz5 on PC we're talking about? I was talking about Dogz on DS when I said that I've played Dogz5 before.

Personally I like both Nintendogs had better animation though

Hold up.. Dogz such as (5, 4, 3, ect on PC)? or the DS Dogz?


If you mean the PC one, then dogz because it's alot more to do.. more breedz, and more items.. More everything and more funnier.

If you mean the PS one, then Nintendogs.

That's what I want to know. xD

Eeep... I can't vote. Alue Wolf Leader said everything I needed to say about Nintendogs. I prefer it aswell

But the thing about Nintendogs is it gets so boring! All your dogs become Champions of everything... you get all the money you want... and the house of your dreams. What then?! In Dogz, the dogz grow up and can have puppies! And you can create many fun breedz and the generation goes on and on and on... with Nintendogs, the dogs stay puppies, so they can't grow up or reproduce

But hopefully Nintendogs will get better and better as Dogz did, with more breedz, toyz, accesoriez, and your pups can grow up and give birth. It's all a matter of patience

So.. Nintendogs. I do love Dogz... but I hardly ever play it anymore o.O XD

Nintendogs^^ Because you interact with them as if they were real^^

Whoops! Sorry!

Do you mean the P.F. Magic PC Game, "Dogz" or the Nintendo DS one?

Well, for me, I like the computer game Dogz up to Dogz 4, Dogz 5 was very disappointing. I suppose I like that because you can breed the dogz and you get a variety of mixed breeds whilst on Nintendogs you can't breed them which I found disappointing.

My litter sister has Dogz for her GBA and it looks bad to me.

So.. it's a mixture really.

Nintendogs its sooo much fun to me! You actually feel like the owner the graphics are so realistic. You can enter competitions unlike Dogz while it is a good game I think Nintendogs is better.

Anyway you can make friends with Nintendogs also. I thought it'd just be the girls in my class with the game but some of the boys had the game also.
