Starfish vacations with the dolphins

Last year, Starfish released a game called I Love Dolphin, which we affectionately dubbed Nintendolphins. Now, Starfish is revisiting its dolphin love by coming out with Long Vacation: Iruka to Watashi (i.e. Long Vacation: Dolphin and Me) this August. Although the title isn't an official sequel (perhaps Starfish didn't want to call the game I Still Love Dolphin), the gameplay is essentially the same. You play with the porpoise-like creatures, explore the ocean, and let's not forget about those minigames.

Now we only have to wait for Ubisoft to copy the idea and come out with Petz: Dolphinz. Oh, wait ...

is there an actual market for these kinds of games? I mean, do people actually buy them? I just can't believe how many of these games there are in existence.
