I think V5 is best of you go to school for hours at a time and dont want to take it. I have heard stories of people worrying if their tamas will die while their at school... and a lot of the time the tama does die. After reading a bit I could tell v5 shouldn't cause you trouble... last time I quit tamagotchi's I continued to here beeps and boops for two weeks... If you're very forgetful or get our of the house very often, a V5 would be ok... But they do tend to get boring, but if you do your things carefully, you can sort of choose what tamagotchi's you want.
