Remember in addition to having downloadable only video games,
Nintendo also sells games at retail outlets. That way families
can support the physical copy movement, and their local
economies. It is wise to refrain from purchasing any of these
products until Family Friendly Gaming publishes a review.
Physical copies of Virtual Console games can be found on older
video game machines, and they are usually cheaper in physical
form.

My Pet School 3D Releases on 3DS
Hamburg, March 26th, in the year of our Lord 2015
– A classroom for four-legged friends is the latest title from
TREVA Entertainment GmbH. “My Pet School 3D” for Nintendo 3DS
serves up exciting tasks for animal loving children. They start
out on a great career, running their own animal school and
training cute dogs, cats, rabbits, mice, horses and parrots.
Even playful puppies and cute kittens are cared for in special
enclosures. Plenty of patience and knowledge is needed in order
to train the animals.
At the outset it’s all about giving simple commands and
performing little tricks: holding out a paw, lying down, sit up
and beg, turning in circles. The animals receive strokes and
snacks as a reward. The animal trainers have to constantly
monitor their animals’ stats – learning progress, energy,
confidence, hunger and hygiene – and see to it that they don’t
want for anything. The stores in the nearby town provide
opportunities for players to buy new care and training
accessories as well as food for their animals. Both humans and
animals can relax by going walkies in the countryside or taking
a ride-out on horseback around the forested lake. As the game
progresses, the animal school can be steadily expanded and its
pupils prepared for more complex tasks. There are special
exercises in which they can be trained in road safety, as a
family pet, as a guide or sniffer dog. Particularly gifted
animals can make their star debut on lots of differently styled
film sets.
The animal trainers learn as they go too. They will find out
lots about their favourite animals and can apply their knowledge
in the classroom.
“My Pet School 3D” supports the Nintendo 3DS Circle Pad control.
Play Coins can also be collected and exchanged for in-game
currency.
Features:
Numerous popular animal varieties and even their babies too
Extensive game area in a colourful 3D world: animal school with
large grounds, go walkies and on ride-outs by the forested lake,
opportunities to go shopping in the town.

Special exercises for training the animals (e.g. road safety,
guide dog, movie role)
