Nintendogs has become a pop-culture phenomenon in Japan and will now be available in Australia on September 22nd 2005, for the great suggested retail price of AUD$49.95.

The game lets owners choose a puppy from one of 18 breeds, then raise and train the pup. The pet simulation uses sophisticated artificial intelligence to produce incredibly realistic and adorably cute puppies that respond to voice commands and petting on the touch screen. Owners can teach their puppies new tricks, compete in obedience trials and agility trials or compete in flying disk competitions. Successful trainers earn money and trainer points to use to buy additional breeds, new toys and accessories. Nintendogs is the pet for people who can't have the real thing.

The Australian version of the smash-hit pet simulator Nintendogs will come in three different packages, each with six different breeds of puppies to begin with, including three breeds – Golden Retriever, Siberian Husky and Boxer – not available in the Japanese version. Owners will be able to choose from the most popular breeds to train on their Nintendo DS systems.

Nintendogs is rated G by the Office of Film and Literature Classification and has a suggested retail price of $A49.95.
