Update: October 05, 2006 «©NCSX» Kawaii Koinu first appeared on the Gameboy Advance in 2002 and MTO evolves the brand to the touch screen of the NDS. The game allows players to interact with puppy versions of man's best friends and 18 breeds are featured such as Chihuahua, Pomeranian, Golden Retriever, Miniature Dachshund, Toy Poodle, and French Bulldog. The gamer's onscreen actor shares the universe of Kawaii Koinu with his pooch and the two may be seen interacting on the upper NDS screen. Commands may be scribbled in kana on the touch screen and orders barked into the NDS microphone. To encourage the dog's loyalty to its owner, mini-games and exercises may be enjoyed as a sort of bonding ritual. This item is also known as "A Lovely Puppy." NCS Game Notes » In the intro to the game, two dogs trailing stardust are running around a dirt field before they're joined by a whole bunch of dogs. They stop at the top screen and hold a conference before the lead beagle runs off while being chased by the rest of the pooches. » At the outset of the game, players may select a male or female protagonist and knight him or her with a name and outfit. The game starts in the morning at 6:30 and the protagonist is in his or her room. Later, the parents take to player to a pet shop where they purchase a new puppy. The dogs are encased before glass covered compartments where buyers may select the canine of choice from 15 possible breeds. The other 3 breeds may be unlocked later.
