I think it's comparable to Nintendogs in a variety of ways:
A. Great previews.
B. Tons of hype for the game, and a system seller.
C. Great reviews.
D. Epic bundle.
E. Appeals to a crowd that values cute things.
F. Appeals to a casual and younger crowd as well.
G. Great Sales(probably)
H. An anti-community of Nintendogs/LBP haters formed.
I. The game eventually spawned ripoffs it was so successful.
J. The gameplay is simple and customizable.
K. The gameplay is innovative without really reinventing the wheel. Instead it improves upon previous ideas.
Nintendogs being a fad is arguable, considering how great it still sells. However, it did quickly fall in with ill-repute from core DS owners and core-gamers in general. Those amazing reviews are also now not respected.
Either way, it is likely LBP will have far more in common with Nintendogs than any other title you could possibly name. Just because you think Nintendogs is crap, doesn't mean that it is, and just because you took it as an insult doesn't mean that it was. Believe me, before it's said and done, there are gonna be plenty of people who label LBP as "gets old quick" and "crap" like people did to Nintendogs, and there will be far more people who love the game to this very day.
There are a lot worse shoes your game could fall into than Nintendogs.

You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
