Pocket Dogs Revealed

GBA

Ever wondered what your dog might say if it could talk? Probably not "you seem both strong and weak". O~3 entertainment today announced that are jumping on the Nintendogs bandwagon, and will publish Pocket Dogs for the GBA in North America. Pocket Dogs was developed in conjunction with Hana Deka Club, the phenomenally popular brand of toys and gifts featuring the signature cute dogs photographed with fisheye lenses. The game is expected to be available at retail for Holiday 2005.

"I defy anyone to play with these dogs for one minute and not be totally charmed. They're just too darn cute," said Chris Jelinek, president of O~3 Entertainment. "Furthermore, the Game Boy Advance is the bestselling handheld system by far, with 29 million players of all ages, and Pocket Dogs is the only virtual pet product on this system."

Featuring actual photos of playful dogs, Pocket Dogs lets players interact with one of eight lovable pets on their Game Boy Advance. Conversations and interactions vary depending upon the pet selected and player input, so interaction is truly individualized. Available breeds include Pug, Chihuahua, and Shih Tzu, and by playing mini games players can win jewels which may be used to purchase items for their canine companion and decorate its living space.

We've grabbed 20 pictures of the admittedly charming game that will make you either a) hug your monitor or b) feel sick from the overwhelming cuteness.
