| Just about everyone’s heard about Nintendo and their band of characters like Mario, Yoshi, Kirby, Link, Samus, and Starfox. Nintendo has long been the king of handheld games with Gameboy, Gameboy Pocket, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advanced, GBASP, and, just recently, Nintendo DS.

It’s easy to see why it’s called ‘Gamecube’. In 2001, Nintendo released the uniquely designed Gamecube. Like the Nintendo 64, the Gamecube can hold up to four players. Gamecube does have online play. It can host a 56K Modem Adapter and a Broadband Adapter. Gamecube also has features that allow you to hook up you Gameboy games and play them on the TV instead of a handheld, or use them in other games.

NDS stands for Nintendo Duel Screen, and it’s no surprise why. In
2004, Nintendo let the NDS be known. It was a unique handheld console,
since it had TWO screens, the bottom one being a touch screen! Using a
special, pencil-like tool, it took handheld games to a whole new level.
A whole new generation of games was born, adding a nice spin to
handhelds.

| Bark! Bark! Nintendogs is an extremely lifelike game. It was released in 2005 with several different ‘starters’. It is a game in which you choose a breed of dog out of several in each starter game. You raise your dog, walk, feed, play, pet, and even teach tricks with a special built in microphone! There are many different breeds, but each breed in every starter, or version, can become available to the player through special contests, meeting up with other Nintedogs users, and more. A special attribute to the games is going into ‘Bark Mode’ and go for a walk with one of your dogs. Whoever else around you has their own Nintendo, and they’re also out for a stroll, both of you can cross paths and your dogs will interact! |
