So nintendogs had a series of 3 people playing the games on their official nintendogs.com website back when the games came out. One had a girl named Brandi. The other was a guy and one other girl. Since awhile ago Nintendo shut down the Nintendogs website and now typing in nintendogs.com takes you to Nintendo's web page of the newer games. If we could get back on the website to get the 3 video series that would be pretty cool

Archive.org archives nintendogs.com as far back as when the site had just been purchased by Nintendo and nothing was on it. Pretty rare to see this. web.archive.org/web/20040924120900/http://nintendogs.com:80/ There's a possibility the videos are archived somewhere in here.
Around 2005-2006 it wasnt when the site first came out since the videos were in English with Americans. They updated the site 3 times from what I remember. Once was to advertise the trading cards.
EDIT: Whoops, God above me mentioned the trading cards

Didn't even know these cards ever existed, but you can still get them for 30 dollars new a box on ebay. Strange.
It seems like the popup appears on the earliest iterations of the website in the west, maybe you remember a .jp domain of the site?

Believe me, pre-teen me did not mess with any language other than English lol. Thanks to everyone for their hard work. I used to have them downloaded on an old old old computer before my cousin got a virus on it. I was so mad way back then.
The three people in the videos were all American. I recall them being multiple short 1-2 minute episodes shot in 144p super blocky video but just good enough that you could tell Brandi was gorgeous . I think the videos had their own access tab from the home page

Thanks for the further info. Will look into it more tomorrow to see if I can dig more up.
Edit: As per the description, this footage was recorded "a long time ago" though I don't know the specifics, but it wasn't up as far forward as 2016, I'd imagine it might have been recorded before 2011 since that's when the site began to redirect to nintendogs + cats. Not sure why the AU domain loads so readily when the .com refuses.
Edit 2: Upon further investigation, they did indeed keep the site up further than 2011. Didn't realise the archive I posted was from 2013. Everything was archived as far as September 10th, 2015, which is pretty odd. The first working archive dates to January 25th, 2009.

The video diaries still load on the webpage! They're imbedded in the flash element. As far as I can tell, they are all watchable. Your description of how the videos would look is spot on, except I don't see a "Brandi" named anywhere, likely your memory combined "Brielle" and "Valerie" that are present in two of the video diary series.
The entire website as you remember it is seemingly archived here. Didn't realise the whole thing would be one flash element.
