  • With gaming becoming more casual in the 2000s, especially on Nintendo’s Wii and DS systems, it lead to a lot of obscure games for children. With Nintendogs being among the best selling games of the generation, there became somewhat of an outburst in wacky pet simulation games, including absurd Nintendogs ripoffs, the huge Petz series, and many pet flash games and online games. Today on strawberry sprite, I'm taking a nostalgic look through the quirky world of pet games in the 2000s

    We love the nostalgic niche weird 2000’s girly trend reviews! It gives a sense of closure since a lot of us were made fun of for simply being a kid and enjoying these things!
    Probably why a lot of young girls feel pressured to act older now.. people put a lot of pressure on young girls and they’re literally just babies.

      Agreed, I liked having headcanons for all the friends characters and shipped some of the friends together. I also tried to get the toy versions of all the characters in all three versions that I played. I liked both friends and biggest stars because it gave the characters dialogue and gave them a heightened level of intelligence since they actually spoke. Although, my only criticism is that it was very heavy with puns for all the dialogue.

    I’m happy that the LPS games are being remembered. I played every single version. The original one and the sequels and all their variants such as biggest stars and friends. Also, I played them recently as a 22 year old and even though LPS was my main obsession and I collected 200+ of the figures as a child, the games were definitely a product of their time, definitely made for children, but I still love it either way and I felt like I regressed in a happy way when I played them and I really love the LPS art style. LPS made me transition into being a pegasister and anime fan in the 2010s since the art style and vibe was similar enough. Also, I still recreate and get inspired by the LPS designs for my current OCs that I make and game characters that I make for the sims, Skyrim, fallout, and other games with character creation. I also made my favorite LPS in the pony maker flash game. As a child, I lived and breathed LPS and only consumed toys that looked like animals like mlp and webkinz. I consumed every single piece of media associated with LPS and became a true collector and the biggest fan that I’ve ever known irl. My mother locked away all my LPS toys and media when I was 12 and I felt like that was the day when my inner child died inside for many years. I constantly tried to fill in the void and once I played the littlest pet shop game again, I felt like I was 8 years old all over again, playing on my pink DS lite, all alone on my room.

    you should check out Petz Catz 2 (there’s also a dog reskin version) ! it’s vastly different (and better imo) than the rest of the Petz games, and it’s so nostalgic for me with its low poly landscapes and whimsical storyline. that’s why i also loved the lps games for the ds and wii, as they’re more fantastical and silly than traditional pet games. even at 21 years old i still feel the urge to immerse myself in these fun little worlds that i played and made up as a little girl :,)

      Thank you for mentioning Catz 2 and Dogz 2!!! I had Dogz 2 and LOVED both this and the LPS DS game. I got Petz Dogz 2 originally thinking it would be more like the others in the franchise, initially disappointed that it was an RPG type (as I wasn't yet appreciative of RPG's) but it grew to become one of my absolute favorite games. I still miss Kenneth the zookeeper😭

This is a core memory! XD

    Bunnyz was the one I played as a kid aside from Nintendogs and seeing your footage already gives me a nostalgia rush, omg. It really reminds me of the simpler times when even some of the most barebones shovelware feel "special" due to their charm and the time it existed when we were just bored kids that don't have a lot of options/money or heavy internet influence to pick our games from and just go with whatever that seems cute/fun to us haha.
    I also remember playing Dogz and Catz on the GBA and its amusing seeing how minigames in pet games changed a LOT pre and post-Nintendogs era! I'd love to see you cover the Petz series for that reason, but in general, I'm glad there's more 2000s nostalgia channel like this :D

Catz on the wii was always my favourite, I loved the story!

    i always enjoyed nintendogs, but something changed once i realized i was neglecting to spend time with my actual pet in favor of these virtual ones. while the ones in my games will always be there, i'm missing out on the life of the real animal that watches me go about playing my game without ever even looking at him. as a child, thinking about that really affected me, so i stopped playing the games and spent the last few years of my childhood dog's life doing with him everything that i was with the virtual dogs in the games. nowadays, i open them again whenever i miss him and i play with the version of him i had adopted as a child, one that looked just like him and that i named after him, like a lot of kids tend to do. i'm really glad i stopped playing nintendogs, just like i'm thankful to nintendogs for letting me see him again.

    i was big on petz tigerz i think it was. its unique gameplay was training animals for circus acts, in which you try to balance them by spinning a wheel on the touch screen, with the progressive difficulty being in the form of obstacles you had to take care of during the minigame, like smacking flies away.
    and yes of course you took care of your own tigers like nintendogs

    Puppy luv is the game I played OVSESSIVELY as a kid, though I played it on computer. I’ve NEVER heard anyone talk about it actually. But this WAS my nintendogs, and I didn’t even know nintendogs was a game that existed until years earlier. Hearing the voice acting clip SENT ME BACKKK

    I have a disability that effects my voice (among other things) and can vary between being able to speak normally to being completely mute, depending on how much strength my muscles have at the time. It frustrated me so much that a non-skippable part of this and a couple of other games I liked at the time was having to shout into the mic because I was mute an awful lot at that point and it made it hard to play them

    That dog grooming game you mentioned, thats no longer available on flash for obvious reasons, however, you can still play it through a rewritten version of an old game called "moshi monsters" :)

    oh my god there was this gameboy game that I played on the DSi called "dogz" that I dont think was within the "petZ" franchise but was so unbelievably charming. It was all 8-bit, you got to pick your character, and then adopt a dog from the pound and bond with them until you had to GIVE YOUR DOG BACK. It was HEARTWRENCHING. I can literally smell this game though. I want to play it again so bad!

    As a kid I loved LPS. I got the DSi and the LPS game for Christmas the same year and was so happy. I booted up the game and was asked to choose a language but was only given flags as the option. Being an Irish person (and obviously too young to understand what the flags mean) I chose the Italian flag because I thought it was the Irish one. The whole game ended up being in Italian and I had no idea how to restart. So I played the game in Italian. Silly me :p
