Entamas or not?

[sketch213]

I was looking on eBay today, and I came across some Tamas that looked awfully like Entamas. It didn't say if they were entamas, it just said "Bandai Tamagotchi Game." Here they are: https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330453510243&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_2770wt_1140 and https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=380252686000&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_2770wt_1140 . By the way, PLEASE DON'T BUY the second one. Thank you.

Neither of those are EnTama. They're both Connection V4. Notice the English words "Hungry" and "Happy" in the status screen photos.

But look https://www.pixelmood.com/entama.htm They look the same.

I think some of the European v4 came with Beads... to look more like Entama.

(As Binary said) Those have English words.

If the words are not Japanese, I do not think it can be an Entama.

Connection V4 sold in the Asian market (Hong Kong, Singapore, etc.) had beads like an EnTama.

There isn't any English used on an EnTama. You can see for yourself. Scans of the EnTama instruction manual are in this topic: https://www.tamatalk.com/IB/index.php?showtopic=112141 The Hungry & Happy stats screens appear in the manual on page 7.
