Nintendogs took the gaming world by storm in the 2000s, but had a pretty notable fall-off in the 2010s and has yet to release any other titles since 'Nintendogs + Cats'... why is that? Why didn't 'Nintendogs + Cats' see the same success? Well, in this video, I revisit the beloved 'Nintendogs' and its sequel to figure out what could have possibly went wrong, and why this beloved game hasn't had a sequel released on the Switch.

    I loved nintendogs as a kid! I had a black and white dog named Oreo, and he was my star dog, winning every competition. Though I admit, that started to go to my head. I told myself if he lost even one competition, I would get rid of him. I guess I turned into some pageant mom or something šŸ˜­ one day he lost, and I got rid of him, just like I told myself I would, thinking I could get him back once I cooled down, and no, he was gone forever šŸ˜­ Iā€™m so sorry Oreo

    My family adopted a lot of street dogs (at one point we had 5!), whenever one died I would recreate them as closely as possible in Nintendogs :')

    I remember going to Pokemon's 10th Anniversary convention in Phoenix and I brought my DS to walk my dog on it. A man saw me holding a DS and I was intimidated (as I was 10) but he said his wife asked him to walk her dog for her and he wanted to know if I had Nintendogs so that our dogs could "walk together" to get the rewards and such. I thought him doing that for her was really precious, and I'm glad it ended up innocent. I'm happy you visited Nintendogs, as much as Peanut Butter did to frustrate you with the competitions. ;;u;; I had no idea there was a Japan only Shiba Inu and friends! My US copy is where I got a shiba inu first, then a few years later I got a real one. <333

    It's so ironic to me to see the pink ds lite being so popular. I remember a commercial for the special edition pink ds (original) and begged my parents for it. My dad somehow got me a Japanese version of the original nintendo ds from ebay since he could not find the special ds in pink. To this day it's one of my favorite gifts I've gotten. I am editing since I see the reference to the bundle I asked for! Wow glad to know it wasn't a fever dream

    When I lived in a childrens home I borrowed Nintendogs to a girl with autism who's hyperinterest was animals. Ended up gifting it to her when she moved out, she loved the game so much. :)

    You know thereā€™s lazy dogs too! One of my corgi black lab mixes hates walks!! Oh those little legs šŸ˜‚

    I recently started playing nintendogs again and it has been such a relaxing game to mess around in and spend time with. It's been such a great time revisiting it.
  • @steinsagtnein
    Would love to see more old DS Games from you. Maybe an old Winx Club DS Game or the Brain Training Game with Dr Kawashima. Nintendogs was also my childhood. Love your Videos. <3
  • @Paddy-if3nd
    I remember the reviews at the time of Nintendogs + Cats. They were all critical of the fact that cats were about as tacked on in the gameplay as they were in the title.
  • @nellie879
    Please keep doing old games/throwbacks
  • @beepysleepy
    Just when I thought the video was over, you started covering the sequels! I was genuinely so excited. I fully agree that the AR-card thing on the 3DS is... unnecessary at best, and actively hindering the gameplay experience at worst, I don't blame you for not doing the obedience trials lmao
  • @fusionflair5964
    I wish I had my own DS growing up, tomogathci was like my ā€œnintendogsā€
  • @xaviernew5173
    I miss Nintendogs so much, I had a Husky named Nanuk who was an absolute champ at frisbee
  • @Julianakun
    I never considered the switch not having a mic.
  • @papaapple93
    I absolutely loved this video!! Nintendogs was one of my favorite games I loved taking the dogs for walks and I was so thrilled when my nintendog discovered the firefighter helmet and it allows me to adopt the Dalmatian breed because I had the Nintendogs Lab and Friends I remember playing this game for hours what a wonderful video canā€™t wait to see more video game play throughs your commentary is comical love it
  • @mikasacus
    oh shit hope my dog won't be mad I haven't fed him in over a decade
  • @StacyDoodles
    Do I have three versions of the Nintendogs cases sitting right by me? Yes. Are any of the games ANYWHERE to be found. No. šŸ˜­
  • @chasecakes
    WAS ABOUT TO SLEEP AND THIS WAS UPLOADED 1 MINUTE AGO. I AM UPPPPPP
  • @samquinn2769
