Square Enix is more or less famous for their line of RPGs especially the Final Fantasy series, but this publisher’s repertoire is not limited to the same old formula time and again – no sir, their latest title would be Pony Friends 2 which is now available from most major North American retailers, where it will cater to folks who own either a Nintendo DS, Wii, or both. As you can tell by the title,this is the latest installment of the top selling virtual pet series.

Developed by Tantalus Media Pty Ltd., PONY FRIENDS 2 provides a comprehensive pet simulation experience that lets players become best friends with their perfect pony. Pony lovers can customize their ponies and explore tricks, trails, quests, racing and much more. Players can also join their friends in the stables through a unique multiplayer feature that allows them to compete in pony trick competitions and race against each other. Perfect for anyone who has ever wanted their own pony, PONY FRIENDS 2 offers a total of 12 breeds to choose from. Each pony has its own personality that players can get to know in-depth. Ponies will even respond to player voices in the DS version when they talk into the microphone. The customizable experience also offers new, intuitive riding gameplay to explore the 25 diverse trails. Take the reigns of the perfect pet pony today!

Hmmm, guess this is a larger breed of Nintendogs, and caters to those who want a pony but do not want to get involved with the messy, everyday details that comes with taking care of one. At least riding on this won’t have you end up with a sore rear end, eh? If you are picking up Pony Friends 2 for the Wii, it will cost $29.99 while the DS version is going for $19.99.
