Forums - Gaming - Eyepet is a hit

mmm.. i have to disagree on that point, i remember the first time i played Nintendogs on 2005, by that time i didnt knew much about the DS i wasnt as much into videogaming news and stuff as i am right now, the game simply blew me away, it was completely unexpected at that time i considered myself a hardcore, i spent my days playing Starcraft if memory serves me well... the game was brilliant i didnt expect 3D graphics on a portable console (i didnt knew much about the PSP either i was exceptical about it as ive always been with everything with Sony on it) , the touch screen reacted perfectly, the microphone did so too, and who cares! playing with the cute dogs was fun *.*, taking them to walk and training them everyday, taking them into tournaments, washing them everything seemed completely different from anything before.

I think its an experience that completely exploted the DS capabilities, a Wii version would be weird... the only fun part would be throwing the frisbee and we already did that on WSR, i think Eyepet is closer to Nintendogs than any pet game that could be made on the Wii and yet it doesnt get close to Nintendogs



Nintendo is the best videogames company ever!

cgi admit it those are just excuses, sony has been trying their best to catch the wii, thats why they take so many jabs at the wii, Modnations is just a rip-off of mario-kart, LBP just a rip-off of super mario, and eyepet is just a nintendogs rip-off; don't act like sony's intentions aren't on taking down the wii

I believe Sony's intentions right now, are to be profitable... And overtake the nearest competitor.

You can't create your own tracks in Mario Kart.

You can't create your own levels in Mario.

Nintendogs is a ripoff of a Tamagotchi.

I don't know what happened to my post, but im just saying those games are just responses to what nintendo has already done and now sony whats to steal some off that thunder, by making their own rip-offs and nintendo didn't rip anything off they just made virtual pets more popular.

Since I can't address the post itself

@ phenom:

All of your "rip-off" opinions are useless IMO. Sony's intentions are to sell consoles, like everybody else. Sure, they take jabs at other systems but so do Nintendo and Microsoft. YOU shouldn't pretend that Nintendo are saints in this industry, they certainly aren't.

u r right about that cgi i just said that because someone said sony's were better and there is nothing wrong with sony entering those markets and competing in those markets, so yes i was wrong about calling them "rip-offs"

well i meant i thought nintendo would have come up with a camera for the wii and make something similar to eyepet just with their nintendogs and market the heck out of it, if i was nintendo i would still do it, with the first nintendogs selling a good 24 million im sure that would shift alot of gamers from the DS to the Wii



mmm.. you are assuming to much, people wont just jump from the DS to the Wii for a port, they want more, Nintendo could just release every game out there in both plataforms both they have different qualities, you cant just add a camera to the Wii and make the same experience over again, i think the touch screen made it feel natural because you were actually touching something,

Nintendogs was before tamagotchi though.

Shiggy started the project in 95 for N64 but it was a parrot instead but the project got put on infinite hold until the DS where they changed it to a dog.

I don't mean to be contradictory and I don't mean any hate, but can I please see a link to this and its proof of concept?

It was in an interview he did a few years ago in a gaming mag.

I just don't remember if it was his big EGM one or one of the many he did in old NP mags.

 

I do remember he changed it to a dog after he got one and was to be a gamecube game also but the projrct was moved to DS.

I'd just like to thank everyone for making this my most successful thread (number of posts) ever.
