I think that whenever possible, we should be calling this the '''nintendogs''' series, rather than the capitalised ''Nintendogs''. I appreciate that the article titles can't be changed, and I'm still looking into how the "Nintendog" itself is called officially (I think it was capitalised on the Brawl DOJO), but the [http://nintendogspluscats.nintendo.com/ official product pages] for the games and their logos have always abandoned capitalisation. This was reinforced on the [https://www.smashbros.com/en_GB/blog/index.html Super Smash Bros. Blog] today, which referred to the universe as ''nintendogs'' without a capital N, within the ''Smash'' universe. Can we agree to just use ''nintendogs'' whenever possible?

:Looking further into it, the ''nintendogs'' capitalisation came into effect for the sequels on Nintendo 3DS, while ''Nintendogs'' was [https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/hEs3ljif2LWi4BksNCOAiSDwcuIaxHmh accurate] at the time of ''Brawl''. I still think that labelling the universe by its more up-to-date capitalisation is better for the future, as the Living Room stage sets the precedent that ''nintendogs + cats'' is the most important game to the universe, but Nintendog itself should be fine to leave as-is, given that it was introduced in ''Brawl''. As you may have noticed, I'm changing the deliberate references to the ''nintendogs + cats'' games across the wiki already, as it defers from [[SW:OFFICIAL]], being the name of a game outside of the ''Smash'' universe.
