Top Ass Dogs in Engrish

Chihuahuas, Beagles, Bobtails. We all know them from videos such as “Birds” from pleix, from tv and from nintendo. Now you can play with them without smelling like a wet dog afterwards and without owning a Nintendo DS! The cardgame TOP ASS HUNDE is out now!
In Austria, ASS refers to the card ACE (but it’s also a company name). Ok, i admit: i also bought the cardgame because of the funny english connotation. Besides Quartett there’s also another way to play the game: Supertrumpf. There you would compare the specs of your cards with other players. Mostly this game is played with cars, a more expensive vehicle means you win. But with dogs? Does a more expensive dog win the competition? Comparing the coolness of dogs with the price they cost is a strange concept to teach kids in my opinion.
Quartett ist known as Happy Families (UK), Jeu de familles (FR), Gioco delle famiglie (IT), Authors (UK and USA). (de.wikipedia)

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

Zelda on Nintendo DSI am owning almost every Nintendo Game Boy revision. Soon my collection will grow bigger since i ordered my Nintendo DS Lite in black (yay). I am especially excited to play The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. Since i am a big Zelda fan, i am wondering how that touch controlling feels (the avatar seems to be mostly controlled via touch and stylus). I played all the Zelda games yet – at least it’s possible to save at any time in the newer versions ;) i remember almost burning my NES with Zelda 2 because of leaving the console powered on just to continue playing after school, back in the days.
At least I’m not that crazy about the game such as some people on YouTube.
