Walk the virtual dog (no curbing required) photo

I think this one even beats Panic Park for the kooky factor. The player must control the dog via leash while walking on a treadmill, carefully monitoring speed and avoiding obstacles such as neightborhood cars and enemy dogs on meth. Ok, I made up the meth part. You have to take it before playing the game. Ron Workman may have some left if you need to restock. Anyway, if you like the DDR revolution but also like to play Nintendogs, this is likely the arcade wet dream for you.

I saw this earlier today and I've come to conclusion that it is a sign of the apocalypse. I weep for the children of the Earth.

With this stuff floating around, I'm no surprised that arcades are slowly disappearing. Personally, I think it all started when points became irrelevant in games all those years ago.

I will not complain about how we need edit buttons.

I recently watched an anime(koi kaze) in which a 27 year old man falls in love with his 15 year old sister. One episode of the series was left unaired on japanese tv, as it dealt with the parents of the main characters' divorce. This was done on account of divorce being a taboo issue over there. I guess what I'm trying to say is: japan pwns.

ha...i wonder how things like this get made there, people over in japan have open minds to crazy stuff like this...the developers must all sit at a table, get really messes up on those "special Mario Mushrooms" and come up with this crap! I dont know how else to explain it!

This post title sounds dirty.

I have nothing productive to add. I like Japan.

They should port this to Wii, with a stuffed doggie peripheral. I would be awesome at it.

I'm currently working on a 'CHOPPER! SICK BALLS!' version. Should be pretty sweet.

I actually saw something like this a few years ago, not sure if this is the same one or a different Japanese dog walking arcade game.

The next big thing in Japan: the virtual "Fresh Air" Simulation. Play a guy who gets up from his couch, goes outside to get some fresh air.

Hey MS, you wanna get something going in Japan? How about releasing all those titles abandoned in pre production phase because developers figured "Nobody seriously would play crap like that!". Sales in Nipoon would go through the roof!

I can kind of, kind of see why this would be popular in Japan, due to space constraints, pet ownership constraints etc. Could be talking out my ass, who knows.
