We've received more information about the new Nintendogs-based toys from Tomy.


Yesterday, we reported on a news-submit by one of our readers about a new product from toy manufacturer Tomy. Today, we received some information about the product.

At the beginning of this month, Tomy launched the Nintendogs plush, a range of soft and loveable 'dogs' based on last year's hugely successful Nintendo DS game.

There are two different ranges to choose from. The first range, Trick Trainer Pups is priced at just £9.99. Each of the cute six trick trainers come with a special Nintendogs magnetic bone to make your puppy perform tricks - you can shake his paw, move his head and wag his tail!

The six Trick Trainer breeds feature the Boxer, Miniature Pinscher, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Chihuahua and Toy Poodle.

For more interaction with your favourite breed of dog, choose the Interactive Play Pups, priced at £24.99. Each of these pooches has sound and movement when you play with them. They growl, whine and bark and show you affection by wagging their tail and moving their head and ears, depending on the breed. There are three types to choose from:

Pet 'n' Play Pups (Husky and German Shepherd) - Stroke your puppy and he will show his affection back to you by barking, whining, moving his ears and wagging his tail

The Nintendogs plush line is expected to be a huge hit in the run up to Christmas. Last year the Nintendogs game sold five million copies in just six months. Children and young adults throughout the UK will be itching to get their hands on their favourite breed.
