What is all this nonsense about so many of you being embarrassed of your interest in Tamagotchis? You like them, right? If you didn't, then you wouldn't be posting here on TamaTalk. Don't be ashamed of who you are or what you're into. Be yourself, unapologetically, and anyone who takes issue with it can either get over it or leave you alone. Why would you want to keep friends around who wouldn't like the real you anyway?
I'm nearly twenty-one years old, and I'm not the slightest bit embarrassed of my Tamagotchi. My wife, and most of my closest friends all have Tamagotchi Connection 4.5s. We play with them together all the time. We like the designs too. I picked out the one with the fall leaves and acorns on it, and I think it's really neat looking. My wife chose the peacock feather design because she really likes peacocks. It suits her perfectly.
I guess a lot of the promotional art and actual Tamagotchi designs are very feminine, but so what? What's wrong with that? Owning something considered to be feminine doesn't make you any less male.
I don't understand why everyone seems to dislike the packaging and artwork. The Tamagotchi characters, even when they first came out back in '97, have always been drawn in a cute and simplistic art style. I like the eyes on everything! It's cute! The Super Mario series has eyes on just about everything too, and I'm a huge fan of Mario.
I'm really surprised by a lot of what I've read so far while lurking on TamaTalk. Are your friends, parents, and significant others really so ignorant as to think that fun is something reserved for the very youngest of children? Yes, of course Tamagotchis are toys. So what? Toys are fun! There's nothing wrong with liking toys.
