Tamagotchi

By Wolf Nanaki(noreply@blogger.com) Create more character articles with information. A character's article should include information on its name and personality, what releases or versions the Tamagotchi has been in, official Bandai artwork of the character, and generally important things. For example, editing Masktchi's page to say "omg she luvs Gozarutchi" isn't very helpful, credible, or necessary.Each article about Tamagotchi releases should include info on special features, release dates, official images, and a list of all characters featured.Also, articles that are pointless or useless should either be expanded to be a credible and helpful article, or otherwise deleted. If you find an article and you're not sure how you can expand it further, put the code {...   [read the full post]

By Jesmond(noreply@blogger.com) My Tamagotchi Music Star arrived in the mail today. I must admit that my anticipatory (is that a word? ...it is now :D) experience was a mixture of dread and curiosity. To tell the truth I'm still not sure how I feel about this Tamagotchi version. I'm not sure how the whole music theme is going to be incorporated with the familiar experience of raising a tamagotchi. However it's still early for me to say if I like the Tamagotchi Music Star or not. I'll just say what I liked and not liked so far: Anyway, sorry for such a long post. I tried to keep is as short as possible. I'll keep you all updated on my experience with the Tamagotchi Music Star, Till then: TTFN :D   [read the full post]

Yuruppy: A Virtual Pet that You Can Pet Coolest Gadgets

By Jesmond(noreply@blogger.com) Hi everyone! First off, Happy New Year 2009!! This post will be about my first day with my Tamagotchi + color. The first thing you get when you put in the battery is the clock which you have to set (picture below). Don't you just love the faces on all the clocks? :D I've said it before and I'll say it again: I love the details on this tama. Althought the color screen is a novel feature, everything else is pure Tamagotchi. Bandai did a great job on the animations and the color screen is put to good use. Look at the screen below and notice how the screen turns dark when the tamagotchi gets sick, a really nice touch, don't you think?   [read the full post]

By jeremy@ilounge.com (Jeremy Horwitz) While it would be unfair to tar Tamagotchi: 'Round the World ($5) for the sins of its many ancestors, Bandai's series of all but mindless "digital pets" were a mid-1990s fad that never seemed to regain steam after a promising start. ...

By Jesmond(noreply@blogger.com) Hi all, Bandai contacted me yesterday and told me about the V5.5...apparently this won't be the American/European version of the Royal Famita after all. There will be new colors and a new family. I'm guessing that the new family will be a different pure family from the ones we have seen on the regular V5. I will be posting a picture of the new designs as soon as they are out. Anyway, here's a copy-paste of what Bandai told me: Jesmond: Customer Service Bandai America Edit: I was reading some Tamagotchi Celebrity (the V5.5) logs and I can confirm that the V5.5 is the American/European version of the Japanese royal Tamagotchi.   [read the full post]

By Jesmond(noreply@blogger.com) As some of you may already know, my favorite tamagotchi animation is the hatching sequence. Bandai has released the hatching animation that we will be seeing on the Tamagotchi plus color. Isn't it adorable? And I love the baby, looks like a mushroom: KAWAIIII :D

By Jesmond(noreply@blogger.com) Hey y'all! In the above picture is my latest 3D creation: Iwatchi. I included Sunnitchi as well because the last time I posted an image of her I forget to give the proper color to the spikey-things around her head (I guess these represent the sun-rays). Well I fixed her and here she in glorious 3D accompanied by the baby Iwatchi: the rock Tamagotchi...so sweet :) As you already might know, Iwatchi is the baby stage of the Space family on the Tamagotchi V5. I already explained how to get this family in one of my posts. To find it just browse through previous entries in the archive section (on the right-side of this page).   [read the full post]

By Jesmond(noreply@blogger.com) I knew that it would eventually happen :D Good news everyone! The tamagotchi is finally being released in a color version!!! This won't be a simulation for cell-phones, computers, gameboy etc...this will be a regular hand-held key chain Tamagotchi but the display is all in color! There is no information about it yet except the above picture which I got from Japan's Bandai website. I really really like the screen and the fact that they included a room for the tamagotchi to live in will probably mean that it will be able to interact with the environment, such as playing games on the computer seen in the background or resting on the couch. As you can see from the picture above, there is a ladder leading somewhere else. I'm guessing that you will be able...   [read the full post]

By Jesmond This is my latest 3D creation. This character goes by three different names: Furawatchi, Leaftchi and Violetchi. I have never really understood why this particular character received 3 different names although I do remember seeing her being depicted in green rather than pink. So maybe one of the three names is referring to another character which is different from the Furawatchi shown here. Can anyone clarify this mystery? Anyway, this character's official name is Furawatchi (I'm referring to the one seen on the Tamagotchi V5 and depicted here). Below is the original 2D picture of Furawatchi. Now, about my V4.5: Since my last post, Linus the Celebtchi had a baby girl. This morning at 12.00am, Linus left to TamaTown. I didn't catch the leaving a...   [read the full post]
