Miyamoto (a while back) mentioned something about seeing what he could do with Nintendogs & Wii...
Think about it - it would be perfect for a Xmas M+ in 2009.
Nintendo are out to milk this generation for as long as they can - they won't be "rushing" games out when they are dominating the market as they are now...
I wonder what Nintendo's "online community" is going to be based on - it would almost certainly have *some* game element... and to me, that means Miis, Pokemon & Nintendogs (or some combination).
- online dog competitions, with people watching the competition on-mass
- large parks, where you can meet other people and their pets
- walking around, large, virtual cities with your pet(s)
- extra downloadable content for objects, animals (even purchasing stuff)
- split screen?
- WiiSpeak support for commands, Motion+ for patting and more
- Mii versions of dogs? Dogiis?
- other pets?
Nintendogs is more than a game - its big enough to large an entire new console or handheld on - or an online community.
