Trusting that Nintendogs hasn't already exhausted your fascination for cutesy touch-screen animals, Konami is set to release GoPets, a new pet sim that will let gamers take their pets online.
Nintendogs had a clever local wireless 'Bark' mode that let two DS units in close proximity connect directly.
GoPets, which features dogs and cats, aims to go one better and let users take their lovable pets online to mingle with other pets from around the world.
Players will also be able to communicate text and icons as they travel around the virtual world. A journal keeps a record of all the friends you make.
An offline mode will also feature, set on an island with a small community and mini games. Sounds a bit like Animal Crossing.
