Dogz coming to GBA
If you're hankering for some virtual pet action a la Nintendogs but only own a GameBoy Advance, then never fear. Ubisoft will release its own puppy simulator, Dogz, for the GBA in November.
Dogz is a pet simulation game that lets owners name, train and play with a realistic puppy. Players create and control a main character and choose one of 49 different dogs from 18 different breeds. As characters in the game, owners can take their puppies everywhere within the virtual environment, from through the house to around the neighbourhood to visit friends.
Gamers will earn their puppy's love and loyalty by remembering to feed and groom it and reward it when it does things correctly. Owners can train the puppy to lie down, shake, fetch and perform many other tricks. Players can even send their dogs off to a 'friends' house by linking two GBAs together.
