Alright, let\u2019s dive into our Nintendogs Switch<\/strong> guide. <\/p>\n

<\/span>\"Nintendogs<\/a> <\/p>\n

Is there a Nintendogs Switch game?<\/h2>\n

There\u2019s not currently a Nintendogs game available on the Nintendo Switch. Even six years on from the Nintendo Switch\u2019s launch, Nintendo is yet to release, announce, or even hint at another entry in the Nintendogs franchise. Sadly, the Nintendo Switch does not have either the camera or microphone that previous entries of Nintendogs use for players to command their dogs, so it may not be possible to create an authentic Nintendogs experience on the Nintendo Switch device. <\/p>\n

Is Nintendo making a Nintendogs Switch game?<\/h2>\n

Nintendo currently has no announced plans to make a Nintendogs Switch game. Nintendo is a very secretive company, so it may well be working behind the scenes to create one, but nothing is available publicly about a potential Nintendogs Switch port or new entry. <\/p>\n

Is there a Nintendogs mobile game?<\/h2>\n

There\u2019s not currently a Nintendogs mobile game. Nintendogs is a series that utilises interactive elements, with both previous entries using cameras and microphones for players to command their dogs. So, if a new Nintendogs is ever to release, we\u2019d expect it to hit mobile devices instead of the Nintendo Switch. We speculate on this in our Nintendo mobile games<\/a> feature. <\/p>\n

<\/span>\"Nintendogs<\/a> <\/p>\n

Are there any Nintendogs Switch leaks?<\/h2>\n

Nintendo is not publicly talking about any version of a Nintendogs game currently, but recent reports<\/a> may hint that a new entry could be in the works. Nintendo owns a patent<\/a> that recently became viewable to the public, showcasing a mobile device, and AR technology presenting a virtual dog in a living room. Much like the AR technology of Pok\u00e9mon Go, which allows players to take photos with Pok\u00e9mon appearing like they are in the location, this technology would make it seem like the dog is actually in the 3D space. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s very little to go on, but the Nintendogs brand is still a strong one, and recent waves of pet and simulation games may point towards an even bigger potential audience than when Nintendo released the original Nintendogs on Nintendo DS. We\u2019d happily take our dogs for a virtual walk with geolocation technology like in Pikmin Bloom, so perhaps Nintendo and Niantic can work together to make our doggy dreams come true one day. <\/p>\n

That\u2019s all the Nintendogs Switch information we have for now folks, and currently, it seems like we might be barking up the wrong tree.
