Im not sure if this is real or not. But it sounds very cool.
Tamagotchi DS
Bandai brings the virtual pet to Nintendo's portable.
by Anoop Gantayat
June 6, 2005 - Tamagotchi may have skipped out on the Game Boy Advance, but he's back for Nintendo's latest portable. Years after multiple appearances on the standard Game Boy format, the world's most famous virtual pet is making the jump to the DS via the tentatively titled Tamagotchi. Bandai, creator of all things Tamagotchi, is serving as publisher.
With a Japanese release set for September, we expect solid details to appear shortly. Stay tuned.
I have to do more research...
EDIT::..
Yes! It does seem to be real! More Information below.
Tamagotchi coming to Nintendo DS
Bandai's virtual-pet game is making its way to Nintendo's dual-screened gaming machine.
TOKYO--Bandai's hit virtual-pet game is making its way to Nintendo's newest handheld. According to the company's Web site, a game based on Tamagotchi is currently in development for a September release on the DS.
Bandai originally released the Tamagotchi virtual pet series in 1996. The egg-shaped electronic gizmos let people get in touch with their maternal side by caring for a digital pet. The cybercreatures appear on a small LCD screen, require virtual food, and go through several stages of "growing." The toy was a sensational hit, selling a massive 40 million units in just two years.
Bandai brought back Tamagotchi last year with the release of two new versions, and the new Tamagotchis are making a minor comeback among grade-schoolers in Japan. Its latest release, Shuku Keitai Kaitsuu! Tamagotchi, allows owners to connect the toy to the Bandai site through the use of a mobile phone.
The new Tamagotchi has sold over 1.5 million units since its release last November.
