Get lost in The Sims 2: Castaway screens

Circuit City brings the bundle back
We long for the days when pack-in games were standard with every console purchase, and though the Wii bucks the current trend by including Wii Sports, Nintendo has yet to do the same with the DS; the Metroid Prime: Hunters demo hardly being comparable to the NES' Super Mario Bros. 1 or even the Genesis' Altered Beast bonus. Of course, there've been limited edition bundles, but the pricing usually reflects the added title's value.
So it pleases us much to see Circuit City offering a free game to anyone who buys a Nintendo DS Lite this Memorial Day weekend. Pay the regular 129.99 price for a polar white, coral pink, or onyx black handheld, and the store will throw in a copy of either Sonic Rush or The Sims 2 -- we suggest you grab the former. If you don't have the time to take advantage of the deal and drive to your local Circuit City before tomorrow's end, the offer also extends to online orders!

How much is that doggie in the window?
We all know that Nintendo banked with Nintendogs. Though this idea had already been toyed around with by Ubisoft and their games Petz, (which later lead to Catz and Dogz for the GameBoy Advance) you would be surprised at how many folks didn't get wind of virtual pets until Nintendogs.
Seeing the success of the game, other franchises want a piece of the big fat pie. Enter The Sims 2 Pets.
Granted Sims fans were introduced to the idea of pets in the original Sims 2 and The Sims Unleashed so it is quite possible to point the finger at Nintendo for stealing taking the idea further.
Interested? Check out a few screenshots and a trailer to get a glimpse of what it's all about.
Personally, I don't see why you just wouldn't get a real life pet to love, feed and play with but maybe that's just me.
