Last week, Nintendo announced “Uggie” as the company’s first “spokesdog”. What you may have missed is a small blurb at the end of the press release revealing upcoming plans to upload a demo for nintendogs + cats to the eShop:

“Nintendo will soon be adding a free playable demo of nintendogs + cats to the Nintendo eShop, so players can download the game and check it out at no cost.”

Nintendo has not yet shared a final release date for the nintendogs + cats demo.

Thanks to Jake for the tip!

Dead or Alive: Dimensions was one of the few early third-party 3DS titles to offer a valuable experience. Team Ninja added in online play, ongoing SpotPass support, and a bunch of game modes.

Even though it featured a great deal of content, Dimensions’ sales performance was disappointing for the studio. Team Ninja boss Yosuke Hayashi didn’t reveal specific numbers, but he did mention that he had “hoped people would be playing more portable consoles out there”.

Hayashi said:

“We believe we squeezed pretty much all of the horsepower out of the 3DS that we could have, really. In the performance sense we believe it was a great title. We hoped people would be playing more portable consoles out there but unfortunately that wasn’t the case.”

Shigeru Miyamoto has opened up about his most/least favorite Mario Kart characters, what it and means to him to be working on Mario/Zelda for so long in a new PopWatch interview. Spoiler alert: he hates Toad.

Miyamoto also commented on a Skyward Sword prototype that was more challenging that the final product, how he feels about the story element in Zelda games, his enjoyment on making Pikmin 3, and more.

All of Miyamoto’s responses can be found after the break.

Update: Curiously, the listing has been removed. See this story.

Could Mario Tennis Open be the final name for the new Mario Tennis game? GameFly seems to think so.

The retailer has added a listing for the title along with a May 20 release date.

Not much is known about the next Mario Tennis project. It was announced during the Nintendo 3DS Conference 2011 late last year. At the time of its reveal, President Satoru Iwata was only willing to confirm gyroscope support and a vague 2012 time frame for launch.
