First we got the dogs. Now, we have the hamsters. These lovely little critters from Digital Kids will be invading our DS with their game Love Love Hamster!

It works a little like NintenDogs. There are 6 types of hamsters to choose from, one of which is even a panda-looking hamster. You can pet your hamster with the touch pen and talk to it with the microphone. If you talk to it often, your hamster may even respond to you. Yep, you heard that right: they do talk back to you! If you let it remember some words like "Good Morning" or even "Crap", your dear little critter may have the chance to answer back to you. It will take some effort and some time to train them to say words, but in due time, you might just be able to talk to your cute hamster. Like the other pet games, you've got to play the responsible owner. You can also design his play pen and even dress him up.

These guys really do take pet care to the next level. Surely, hamsters are the usual pets however, knowing the Japanese for their knack for the mundane, one could only wonder, would the next NintenPet be... a snake!?
