While cleaning, I recently found my old Tamagotchi Connection 4.5 and put a new battery in. As I watched my boy grow, I got curious. I'd been out of the Tamagotchi loop for a while; had I missed a generation? As it turns out, I had missed a lot. The last Tamagotchi to be released in the US was Tamagotchi Friends. I also learned about all the ones that got released in Japan, and while I would love an ID L or a 4U, they're just too rich for my blood. However, I found the Tamagotchi Friends on Amazon for relatively decent prices. Are they worth my money/time, from a casual, non-collector standpoint? I always wanted a purple Tamagotchi, and this looks to be the only way.

 
I think Tamagotchi Friends is worth it. It's about the same simplicity level as a V4.5. It's pretty fun and I adore it for various reasons (I think it has the best characters and it reminds me a lot of V4, my first Tamagotchi ever), but it doesn't have much that makes it stand out from other versions from a non-biased viewpoint. :p

However, I really recommend getting the new, second wave of Tamagotchi Friends (they are identified by having a plastic heart at the top).

Here's an example of one:

They have heaps of content like various places to visit, different skills for your Tamagotchis to learn, and more mini-games than any other Tamagotchi release! They're $20 RRP, I dunno when they will be released in stores but they're on Amazon for $36 including shipping at the moment. I think those ones are DEFINITELY worth it since they have so much to offer. :)

 
Yeah, they're worth the little bit of extra money 'cause they have so much more than the original Tamagotchi Friends.

 
Well, the ones on Amazon right now are ~$40 that I'm finding. If they're gonna come out in stores, I may wait and see if I can snag one that way. I can't find any Tamagotchi in stores right now.
