The Idea Of Nintendogs: Mutt & Friends

The Idea Of Nintendogs: Mutt & Friends!

Yes, this is just a simple photo manipulation by a friend on Deviantart and this was the original description:



I wanted to ask you just one little thing. If this were a reality would you purchase it? I think the overall design and idea of it sounds really cool but it would have to depend on if it were just as real as the newer Nintendogs + Cats games or not. I might even purchase it otherwise anyway because it looks so interesting. One reason I understand why they have not yet made such a thing is because mutts are, of course, mixed breeds and there are literally almost endless possibilities of the different kinds of mutts that could be produced in reality. This would mean they would surely have to add an easy to access and known about breeding feature that would enable you to create your own mixed breed canines and if there were seniors and rescue dogs then wouldn't that mean that the creators would need to add a bunch of other features also?

Yes, this is surely what it would mean. There would need to be an aging feature and growth system added on and then it could ruin what the creators of Nintendogs originally went for while they designed the original game. They wanted a game that would be non-stressful and safe for people of all ages. Losses were a big part of what they did not hope to include and so that is how the original idea of Nintendogs is extremely conflicted by the idea of elder dogs and aging. However, if they ever did include an aging feature it would be very much like the one in the Petz virtual games because the dogs would be purchased from the shelter/adoption center/pet store at an adolescent age and stop growing at adulthood whilst the adult dogs would be able to mate/breed and produce puppies that would be even smaller and cuter then the original dogs themselves from the purchased state.

Adding surefire breeding to the game could (depending on the state of graphic material) set the game's sales back a little from the younger ages and boost up it's current maturity level to possibly even PG-13. Yes, this would all depend on just how much content they would include and they probably would not show very much but there is still the possibility of more details just as always. Also, the idea of just how much programming time would go into designing Nintendogs: Mutt & Friends is just a mind-boggling subject to think about. If there were really going to be more places added on and the feature of snow and rain that might add an extra few months to few years of work.

Besides all of this (even though I could and should have said more), I would like to see your possible opinion on any aspect of this possible game. Please post somewhere in this thread with your full opinion! ^-^
