The
craze was almost too much when Cyber pet's made their debut in
the market. The Japanese craze almost took over the world. Even
some people neglected their real pets to look after their cyber
pet friends.
"Awwwahhh..
MUUUUM!, my Cyberpet has died, you didn't feed him while I was
at school... wahhhh!!!".... "But honey, why not take
your dog Fido for a walk?"..... "Wahhh.. I want my Cyber
pet back"....
Ok..
u get the picture :) .. I can't see Bandai
behind behind an official home computer launch on the C64 in 1996-97,
but someone obviously hoped it would happen and did their own
conversion.
This
is quite an accurate representation of the annoying game which
is about as much fun as Snooker on a b/w TV.
All
the functions are there, though not all are working properly...
You can feed, play, kill :) and other things to your "Pet".
The
graphics are simplistic to match the nature of the game. Similiar
in the way that Gameboy Tetris was masterfully created on the
C64 in proper Gameboy mode.
Shame
some nice graphics couldn't have been done, but that would have
probably spoiled the point this preview is trying to make.
Not
sure whom this was actually being produced for and if it was going
to be sold. It's probably not legal anyway.
It's
unknown if a later version exists, no credits are present, so
tracing more on this game is gonna be hard.
Prefer
the real thing really...
Frank.
