We learnt it the hard way - the tube isn't the ideal place to train your Nintendog. After several dirty looks and a series of unpleasant exchanges, we never took Nintendogs on the train again.
We're obviously not going anywhere near the tube with it then, but that doesn't mean you can't train your virtual doggies in public when Dalmatians & Friends waddles into the shops on June 16. Officially announced today, the new editon of Nintendogs will have six of the most popular mutts from previous versions available, including - wait for it - Dalmatian.
So not strictly a new release, Dalmatians & Friends is more of a remix of previous Nintendog flavours. But with Nintendogs sales now surpassing six million worldwide and 2.5 million in Europe, we're sure there are plenty of people willing to give up their cash regardless.
Nintendogs: Dalmatians & Friends is out on June 16. We're off to make a, ahem, secret pre-order.
