De eerder onaangekondigde 3DS titel, Teddy Together, is aangekondigd voor de 3DS en moet 1 juli verschijnen.
Kimishima had een tijdje terug laten weten dat er meer onaangekondigde 3DS games in de maak zijn. Teddy Together is een van deze onaangekondigde games en is vandaag uit de doeken gedaan. Alhoewel het niet een hardcode titel is, is deze titel wel degelijk voor een redelijk grote groep 3DS bezitters bedoeld. Kinderen moeten net als bij Nintendogs plezier beleven aan deze game.
Teddy Together heeft dan ook wat weg van Nintendogs. In deze game is het alleen de bedoeling dat je een band met Teddy opbouw. Als Teddy bij jou wordt afgeleverd, zal je allerlei vragen beantwoorden en Teddy zal deze onthouden en hier later over praten. Zo wil Nintendo de zelfverzekerdheid van kinderen doen verhogen. Daarnaast zijn er ook veel minigames, om Teddy eten te geven, aan te kleden en te wassen. De game zal geen online mogelijkheden kennen en de antwoorden worden niet gedeeld met Nintendo of andere partijen.
Het originele Engelse persbericht kan je hieronder lezen:
What child hasn’t dreamed of their favourite toy coming to life? That’s exactly what happens in Teddy Together, a new game joining the ever-growing catalogue of kid-favourite games like nintendogs + cats available on the Nintendo 3DS family of systems, which includes the entry-level Nintendo 2DS system. Ideal for parents to play together with their young children as they’re developing their reading and interpersonal skills, Teddy Together will be available from 1st July.
The story begins when a teddy bear is delivered to the player’s house, along with a mysterious key. The magic starts when Teddy springs to life and starts to speak to the player! Children can give Teddy a name and enter their own name, creating an instant personal connection between the two new friends. From this point on, the tale of Teddy Together advances a bit each day as children learn more about the teddy’s purpose and the mysterious key, making it an ideal interactive bedtime story that parents and their young children can enjoy together.
This inquisitive little bear is particularly interested in learning more about friendship, and often asks the player questions like, “What do you do for fun?”, “How do you make friends?”, and “What’s your favourite food?”. Teddy will remember those answers and bring them up in conversation later on, forging a unique relationship between Teddy and the player, as the answers are always just between them*. Teddy’s cute reactions and encouraging personality are sure to bring a smile to any child’s face, which might even help them grow in confidence and self-esteem. Players can also introduce Teddy to their friends, who can give answers that Teddy will remember and even mention later on.
Teddy loves to eat too, so children can play fun minigames via the Touch Screen to prepare a range of meals, then feed Teddy. But be careful: sometimes the food will be too hot, and the player will have to blow into the microphone to cool it down! Teddy can be a bit of a messy eater at times, so a little light cleaning might be needed after a meal. Don’t worry: Teddy also loves to take baths, so is never dirty for long! Players can dress their teddy up too, with a big range of tops, hats, shoes, accessories and more, plus different fur colours to unlock too, making each player’s bear even more unique to them. Clothes, special lollies that unlock new fur colours, and seeds that can be planted in the garden are all purchased using coins, which are earned through playing or by tapping a compatible amiibo figure once a day.
The unique simulation game Teddy Together lets young children make friends with a teddy bear that comes to life, talking and asking questions to learn more about friendship. The game will be available for Nintendo 3DS family systems, including Nintendo 2DS which plays all Nintendo 3DS games in 2D, from 1st July 2016.
