Pocket Gamer - All kids loves dinosaurs, right? But, even if the cold-blooded behemoths weren't extinct, giving one to your child as a pet would be a horrible idea.
Once the excitement of having a 10-ton carnivore in the house wore off you child would inevitably grow bored, and you'd find yourself dragging a wheelie bin-sized pooper scooper around the park every morning before work.
NWR: This is another one of those times where codes for eShop games went out and I picked the one that sounded the least offensive, or perhaps the most interesting from my perspective. It involves dinosaurs, after all. Thankfully, this one didn’t turn out to be a tower defense game, but instead a hybrid pet simulation and a mini-game collection with cartoony baby dinosaurs. It is not fun, and you should not play it.
"Some may recall it was over a year ago that Teyon and Selectsoft released 101 Shark Pets and 101 Dolphin Pets on DSiWare. Well, now they've made a transition to the 3DS' eShop, hoping to amass further support for their series. To be fair, 101 DinoPets 3D purely from the perspective of its application of simulation rules and guidelines, is still pretty down-to-earth as far as the sorts of behaviours you'll be involved in. But by other measures, there's weighty evidence that can be leveled against the game to indicate that this transition hasn't been a very poised one." -- Wiiloveit.com
