Nintendogs + Cats demo on Nintendo eShop this week

News DS Wii 3DS

Kitten out your 3DS.

A trial version of cuddly virtual pet game Nintendogs + Cats will be available to download from the 3DS eShop this Thursday, Nintendo has announced.

The demo contains a free litter of felines to make friends with and scare with the vacuum cleaner.

There are also two new games downloadable on DSiWare. The first is 3 Heroes Crystal Soul, a puzzle game with RPG features.

The second is Box Pusher, a 3D block puzzler with multiplayer options.

Both are available for Ł4.50/€5 or 500 DSiWare Points.

Finally on WiiWare, Newton vs. The Horde, a physics-based tower defense title where you must use scientific contraptions to save scientists from waves of undead.

The Saturdays play Nintendogs + Cats.

This nintendogs demo probably would've done something if they'd released it at launch. Would've been far better for Nintendo to have selected a third party game for a demo rather than releasing a demo for an old title that flopped.

It will be worth downloading the demo if you can take pictures like in the full game simply for the swapnote shenanigans.

I really like dogs but never bought this. I'll happily try the demo though.

@roz123 Don't forget though that all 3DS demo's released so far have a 30 goes limit to them.

@abigsmurf

Whilst it's sales are nowhere close to the massive sales of the original Nintendogs, the 3DS version still sold over 1.5 million in 2 months. Not a flop by any measure.
