Thankyou, Tamadude787. Thankyou!!! I also think Tamagotchi has lost its meaning. I hate the new games. I hate the jobs. I hate the v4 and the v4.5 and I'm not really keen on the idea of the Famitama.
There already are Tamagotchi games on DS. There's Tamagotchi no Puchi Puchi Omisetchi (Tamagotchi Connexion Corner Shop), Tamagotchi no Puchi Puchi Omisetchi Gohiki Ni (Tamagotchi Connexion Corner Shop 2), Tamagotchi no Puchi Puchi Omisetchi Mina San Kyu (probably going to be Tamagotchi Connexion Corner Shop 3) and Tamagotchi no Appare! Nijiventure.
Lukie99, I've been thinking that too. In my imaginary world I made a game like that called "Enjoy Life to the Full!! Tamagotchi DS." Instead of raising three Tamagotchi in different rooms, you raise three Tamagotchi in the same room. You can go out shopping in the Tamagotchi World and have holidays on Earth (to Japan or somewhere like that). And because it's "Enjoy Life to the Full" your Tamagotchi can have jobs. In my imaginary world I remember one job is a flight attendant so you walk around serving passengers and stuff (and sometimes some unaccompanied Tamagotchi might be really scared of aeroplane toilets and ask you to flush it for them- don't say that in real life flight attendants never do this because they did it for me lol). Another job is a pilot and you use the touch screen and the buttons to control the plane.
I don't mind the jobs and what not.
But I thought like... A ds version of taking care of your tamagotchi would be cool, but I guess that wouldn't be the case. I fully agree, as someone who has grown up when the tamagotchi was first made, about it losing its meaning. I remember I was about 8 when the tamagotchi came to America, they were sold EVERYWHERE, and to my memory were only aboue 5 dollars. I'm not sure on the prices but yeah... Now it seems that the tamagotchi isn't like a pet, its more of a sim character. I liked it when your tamagotchis acted like a pet, like a dog or cat or something. It was more fun in my opinion. I never knew my dog could become a doctor

Anyways, now that the familitama (V5) is coming out, I think that that will be interesting don't you think? I guess we could look at it as an evolution line.
Before, our tamas used to really be pets. Something that couldn't think for itself. Then, as years progressed, it became more complex. Finally, in its more complicated stages, they've developed communities and stuff.
According to Darwin's evolution theory, we used to be the same. We started off as pet like creatures, then as the years progressed, we to became more complex.
