Hudson Uses Cute Cats, Dogs to Whore DS Games

No shame at all! Hudson has employed an animal shelter-full of cute cats and dogs to accompany their new Weekly Puzzle Calendar series. The titles go on sale at the beginning of August in Japan and feature a new picture each week that you have to unscramble jigsaw puzzle-style.
