Some people on this list are working on a "Virtual Pet" for the 2600, and It
seems that Bandai is making one for the Gameboy. It might be beneficial for
those interested to take a look at Issue #101 of Nintendo Power. On pages
72-77, they go into great detail about the upcoming game for the Gameboy. Some
of its features include:
- Ability to select 6 different "eggs" from which the virtual pet will hatch
- Ability to raise multiple virtual pets at once
- Ability to feed virtual pet 6 different kinds of food. You have to use the
right combos for a healthy pet.
- Ability to play several different kinds of games with it. Sometimes it will
co-operate, sometimes not.
- When it sleeps, you have to make sure to turn the lights off
Also featured on page 104 is a sneak-peek at Virtual Pet for the Nintendo 64.
The screen was similar to the "Mario 64" design, where you can run and play with
your pet on a 3-D landscape. What a great concept. I can just see it
now...Turok: Virtual Pet Hunter :)
Please try to take a look at this issue, it will surely make the Virtual Pet for
2600 game so much better.
Thanks,
- Rich
