Early Development (2010)#
Nintendogs + Cats began development in early 2010, where a majority of the Nintendo EAD Group 1 team worked on the game, along with Mario Kart 7 to a lesser extent. This is because they wanted to release the former title first.
The team was able to take advantage of the Nintendo 3DS' hardware by creating much more detailed dogs and cats.

The early reworked Disc Competition.
- The banners did not have unique logos then, it was just the Nintendo logo.
E3 2010 Demo#
A playable demo of Nintendogs + Cats was playable at E3 2010. All the player could do was interact with one of three puppies, with a limited amount of toys. Cats weren't present as of that build.
Said demo would be dumped to the public in 2025.
