I can't remember. I'm leaning towards virtual pet (at least not "tamagotchi connection") but the glimpse I saw of the packaging from far away looked almost identical to the 20th Anniversary chibi packaging...

I agree with Jhud and penguin-keeper on the counterfeit vs copycat/rip-off difference. I've also noticed with some items the counterfeit is so bad it may as well be a rip-off, and vice versa - in this case it's obvious for tama collectors, but for others like parents or kids, not so obvious. I...

That's correct. No growth. You don't get to play with the character versions, as far as I can tell (i.e. there's the core characters that are always there and they have versions you 'catch', but it just adds to a gallery - a super cute gallery though). By playing with it you're supposed to be...

So at a family gathering today, and a bunch of the nieces and nephews all had fake tamas - the B&W pixel type, 4 buttons, 32-in-1 pet. I was asked to help them learn how to use them. Apparently one of them came missing the screws holding the battery plate in place. From memory, the kids...

Hey all, So I got my Sumikko Atsume yesterday and have been playing with it since after work. A few things I've noticed so far: 1. It has a nice color screen, "proper" sounds (i.e. not various beeping tones like the Tamagotchi, which my bf hates), and utilises shaking/movement for many of its...

This is all super helpful and really interesting to see the differences in what people look for in a tama! I've been browsing for English tamas since starting this thread, and grabbed a used v4 i think (the shell is light blue with hibiscus flowers) which just arrived today - but it's now...

Ordered one too. I've been um-ing and ahh-ing for ages but finally did it after seeing some instagram posts and watching YT vids (because what else changes your mind, right?).

Are you pressing the 'B' button when you set them to connect - after they start the heart-communication symbol bit? You only need to press 'B' on one.

Thanks - I'll try that and see how it goes. It's been going off sync probably every couple of days or so, so I should know pretty quickly if it's the batteries or another problem.

Just wondering if anyone's had issues with the M!x clock going off sync a lot? Woke up this morning at 8am to my m!x clock saying it was 3am. This time sync issue has happened a few times before. But I've also had it sometimes go dark like it's got no batteries in it. Batteries don't seem lose...

So helpful!!! I only ever used Amazon Japan, eBay or JapanYouWant - so good to know there are other places that sell English tamas.

TheYatagarasu - I read that post. I believe your bias is that you <3 Dream Town a lot! ( ^_^ ) Did you have thoughts on Tamagotchi Friends vs Dream Town? From what I've read, DreamTown also sounds like it has more mini-games, which is usually a draw for me. Penguin-keeper - Gets a job, poops...

I just find the end of this line funny. ^_^

Hi all, I was browsing for a particular shell design for a tama when I realised, I don't actually have any English language tamas in my collection (if I conveniently ignore the fairly limited-featured 20th anniversary rerelease). I've thought about getting a DreamTown friends (though I've read...

Oh I saw that got released and wanted to play it. How is it? I'm on a semi-Pokemon kick at the moment, and dug out my Pokewalker to play along with the DS SoulSilver version. Other than that I've taken a break from Monster Hunter World to play Overwatch (PC) - though right now I have too many...

That drawing is actually really cute! Can't wait to see how you finish the image! Your Kuchipatchis are hilarious! Like extra-cheesy gameshow hosts! Love the mermaid mixes, though! But yeah - the fluffy face and the fringe line really puts me off, is all. I feel like a bad parent lol!

I've been a regular lurker, but trying to post a bit more regularly. Probably going to be quite regular for a while, since I've gotten quite obsessed lately.

I can imagine! They're about to change a bunch of things here in AU which means that we're looking at things getting way more expensive this year. :( So hard to keep up hobbies, now! If you have trouble finding anything on Amazon Jp (amazon.co.jp) I find using the japanese letters for...

HobbyLink Japan and CDJapan had them before, but I just checked and couldn't see them. :( Don't know if they restock or not. I've seen some fairly reasonable prices (for me, it's about AU$25-30) via Amazon Japan - but the extra expense may come from having to use a shipping forwarder to get...
