      Gosh I played the crap out of these games. When I was watching this video all I could think was "THE ORIGINAL PETZ GAMES WERE BETTER IN EVERY SINGLE WAY THAN ANY OF THESE." The AI was very very good and the wild things you could get from breeding was amazing. I always made tons of catz based on different fictional characters, and it was enormously entertaining, haha.

She was the first to finish the game as it took me a few years to overcome my fear of the difficult enemies just enough to slowly sneak past them with my heart pounding in my chest. (The bears, cobras, enemies that didn't sleep or had a wide detection range, and don't get me started on the vultures and bats, jumpscares in a non-scary game).

Well, I still didn't know how to save on my own, idk why I didn't ask my dad (who is a gamer) for help or literally anyone??? What did I do instead? I kept playing without closing the game or powering off the DS FOR TWO WEEKS until I saw sisters bestie again so she could save for me... Dedication

    Petz Dogz/Catz 2 for the Wii/PS2 is actually a completely different game to the DS port, which isn’t too surprising. What is surprising, and what I have always been puzzled about, is that the game was actually released in Japan first and wasn’t even a Petz title. Instead, it was called “Nyanko/Wanko to Mahou no Boushi”, or roughly “Kitten/Puppy and the Magic Hat” and is a lot like another game, The Dog Island.
    The Dog Island was made for Artlist Collection: The Dog, which is a 2000s franchise from Japan that mostly revolves around photographs of animals (usually dogs) taken with a fisheye lens that made their heads look exaggeratedly large and bobblehead-like. That is the entire franchise, which mostly sold prints and calendars. Then they made a game, I guess. The most notable things from this franchise to appear in the US are mostly only The Dog Island and some Happy Meal exclusive plushies, as far as I’m aware.
    Nyanko to Mahou no Boushi is as far as I know, unrelated to The Dog Island beyond gameplay and both games sharing Yuke as a developer. I don’t know why they made a game almost identical in gameplay to The Dog Island beyond maybe convenience, unless the game was very successful in Japan.
    My guess on why it was called “Petz Dogz/Catz 2” outside of Japan though, is that people simply didn’t know what “Puppy/Kitten and The Magic Hat” was and they were more likely to buy something from a franchise they knew and that Ubisoft already owned- Petz.
    Still though, I find it somewhat of an interesting rabbithole that I can’t find much about. To this day I wonder every now and then why they basically made a spiritual successor to such an obscure game that was by a franchise that only revolves around fisheye lens pictures of animals and is little known in the US.
    Anyway, I know too much about this, hopefully someone found this interesting because I have no one to tell about this weird niche thing that I wish I had more info on

    • @DoveJS
      @DoveJS 2 месяца назад +5

      My guess is that Yuke was going to make an official sequel to The Dog Island but for whatever reason the licensing deal fell through while the new game was still in development. Rather than scrap a perfectly serviceable game, they changed some things and released it as their own IP to try and make back the money they spent on it. For example, I've heard that Tails Adventure was originally going to be a Disney property (Disney did have a bunch of old school games back in the day) so they just scrubbed it clean and made it a Solo with Tails since it wouldn't have made any sense for Sonic.
      Also, apparently SatAM wasn't supposed to be Sonic, people have posted initial concept art of something different, but I guess DiC got a request for another cartoon that wasn't AoStH so they did a reversal, dropped the new IP and instead continued development turning it into a franchise (presumably this means that AoStH would've been green-lit for another season but I guess someone changed their mind before THAT series finished production, it got cancelled but they still needed to produce it because it was already paid for, which is why it feels a bit rushed, only has one season, and then a Christmas Special years later.) There's more to it all I just can't think at the moment.
      Going back to video games, then of course Ubisoft probably did what you suggested, adding another weird layer lol. But yeah! I find stuff like this very interesting. Thanks for sharing. :D

      @TheLalacream 3 месяца назад +12

      Both games were huge parts of my childhood. The most noticeable difference between them is how differently dark they are.
      Dogz 2 had some dark fantasy vibes with the antagonist (his transformations scared the heck out of child me), but the dog island dealt with subjects of death, loss, grief, ptsd. like the protagonist goes out on a journey in a desperate attempt to find a cure for their dying sibling. It's a total emotional roller-coaster.

    • @Freezair

      @@Sloth21They're both developed by a Japanese company called Yuke's, and as far as I can tell Petz Dogz 2 was sold as a sequel in Japan. Its Japanese title is "The Puppy and the Magic Hat," and, like with a lot of the Imagine games, its English release was just Ubisoft re-purposing it as an unrelated title.

It had a wild story line about pollution and underwater exploration segments with amazing settings. You could scan different animals and learn about them, treat them for injuries caused by the antagonist in the story, and play with them as well! You travelled all over the world with the story and learned about the different underwater flora and fauna there. Collected ingredients to use in medicines for the healing segments and a ton more I cannot remember. I played the crap out of it as a kid over and over again! Genuinely a great experience for the time of overpopulated DS games.

    The modding communities for the original petz games aren't as strong as they used to be, but there are still tons of websites and forums with links to download new breeds, toys, and scenes. The pets were charming and had plenty of personality. My activity of choice back in the day was creating abominations through breeding or using a hex editor to customize my own petz.
    If you can find it somewhere, I urge anyone who hasn't to give them a try.

    The PC Catz and Dogz were some of my favorite games asa kid! THis year, I was listening to one of my favorite bands, Nada Surf, and I found out they did the iconic and adorable theme song for Catz, "Meow Meow Lullaby". Needles to say I bawled my eyes out hearingg that after almost a decade - it brought back so many memories!

      @TheLalacream 3 месяца назад +6

      I really like the first part of the game, mainly because it has an interesting narrative importance as your character is being made to do community service. Like thinking on it now, I've never played a game where my character was actually held responsible for their actions and made to make up for their actions. I saw it as a good way of world building, specifically the community that the character lives in. It's a good teaching experience for kids to learn about responsibilities imo. Also my sister and I replayed the game so many times that we could just blast through that part

    • @TheLalacream

    I also had Dolphinz for the DS and absolutely loved it, there was so much depth in that one and it could be genuinely challenging at times.

    petz fantasy was my CHILDHOOD. petz fantasy ds is quite different from 3ds! and it's marginally better, I'd say.
    you're able to unlock different outfits through QR codes or completing challenges;
    the food minigame requires you to draw in a food's picture, the water minigame is the same, and the basketball minigame is actually a little hard and requires a bit of timing, as the pet moves around until you throw the toy
    you need to find three favorite items of a pet (one food, one washing item, one toy,) to gain the chance to go into a minigame. if you beat the minigame, you can either go through the second tier of favorite items or pick a new egg pet!
    the pet also has a mood meter! if the mood meter goes all the way down, you play a game where you have to calm down your pet before the MC's parents come home. you can only lower this meter by picking disliked iems outlined in *red* in the selection screens. PETZ FANTASY 3DS is a disservice to the original DS games

A childhood favourite of mine, The Dog Island for Wii, has more or less the exact same mechanics, speech bubbles and dog models except styled to 'The Dog' franchise, so that was strange to see!! It must be the same devs.
    This is a great video topic though! :D!!

    I had Petz Nursery 2 and it was really similar to the bunny game played. You first adopt a little baby animal (start off with dogs and cats and I think you unlock other breeds and animals) and take care of it in the nursery room, then when it gets older it moves to the play room. The babies and the older pets also have different mini games and tasks you can play so it actually kept it pretty interesting. Unlike the bunny game, if you have multiple pets in one room they interact with each other and it's really cute. I still have the game and play it time to time

    Petz Bunnyz was a game I would play over and over and over Idk why it was so replayable to me as a kid. Maybe it was all the different breeds you could get, or the cosmetics, the minigames, the room you could explore and find prizes in.
    It seems similar to the Hampsterz one she played but she didn't go in depth with that one enough for me to tell if it was exact or if Bunnyz had more features. I still love it to this day, I have an emulator for it on my phone. It's super peaceful and you can customize the cage for your bunny and place its toys inside. The only downside is you can only play with one bunny at a time. I wish all my bunnys could play together.
