the only way your tama can get presents without connecting is if you set the date to 12/24 and you set the time to 10:29pm. when it hits 10:30, santagotchi will come and give your tama a present. it may dissapear after a while, but if you are super patient, when it wakes up,you can check your present list. Depending on which tamagotchi you did it to,you either get a ball, for children and teens, and many for other specfic tamagotchis you get other stuff.(p.s,your tama can only go this if the first time you do it is on your first gen.) I need replys now!
