It is obvious that the news articles are reused or recycled with the 90's hype and trying to stir up the nostalgia. I remember when they were trying to push the whole Tamagotchi L.I.F.E. campaign and really push the old sprites and the app where it was a simulation of the original P1 and eventually P2. anyway, all that to say that I understand that is Bandai's way of capitalizing on the breakout successes of the initial release and the V3's/ connection era's. I'm hoping that the colored release of the On is going to stick in the news outlet's minds and when they refer to the brand in the future it isn't JUST about the trend that started it all back in the 90's. The brand has evolved and done so much more than what it started as, but the headlines indicate that the author knows only what they are told by Bandai in the interview or what they quickly Google search ... Being that the Tamagotchi On is doing well in Bandai's perspective, I am sure that this may be a turning point for the brand! Whether it was the colored screen novelty to the English market or the mixing element also debuting for the first time in the English market. Though it isn't blowing up the same way that the initial ones did where EVERYBODY had one, it is being bought for mostly kids at ~60% of the users and ~40% adults. This means that Bandai may realize that there is a door for a mix up in their typical marketing of the device. (although it has almost solely gone to kids and female, as opposed to being a little more open). Anyway, I'll stop, because I could talk about this kind of stuff forever.
