Yeah... I guess Augmented Reality pets will only be interesting once something like Denno Coil becomes reality...

Neat technology but I still don't like the creature. It's too retarded for close-minded folk like myself.

I love these videos and there insistence that "there is no pet on this table."

It wouldn't be much of an augmented reality pet game if there was a real non-virtual pet involved, now would it?

Unless you want to make your pet chihuaha look like a fire-breathing dragon. In which case you better have a damn well-behaved (and well-trained!) chihuaha...

It won't "soon be coming," it came a long time ago with Eye of Judgment. I think they're still going to be struggling with how to make an actual game out of it, though. Augmented reality is a cool idea, but they haven't quite figured out what to do with it yet.

Finally, my dream of having to wash, feed and clean up after both a real AND a virtual pet will come true. I wonder if they'll let you wipe his virtual crap off the table when he makes a virtual accident.

@PlanEx:

people (especially kids) like virtual pets.
Sure the 15+ avg male gamer may not, but there is a need. Heck I might get it for my 5 yr old cousin.
