Asiangotchi 34 Posted February 8, 2009 Every Tamagotchi I had, the instructions have series of typos, and they aren't specific enough for the complicated features and games...... They need to check before they actually print these out. Most of the time, little kids that play with these will have no idea how it works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kuchipatchi rulz 0 Posted February 8, 2009 I have spotted a few typo's also. I got the hang of my Tama by playing it, i didn't actually read the instructions. In some parts the Instructions are specific, but in others, the instructions are not. Most 'little kids' i know who played with Tama's knew how to use them, but that was V1/V2, the Music Star Tamagotchi is one of the more complicated Tama's. Cya!

The Script. ‹3 0 Posted February 8, 2009 Yeah, sometimes I don't understand their descriptions of how to play the games. :S I need to work it out myself a lot of the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chloe1503 0 Posted February 8, 2009 I think the instructions could use a bit more care and detail. However, I like being able to figure things out about them for myself, kind of like the Music Star. I like that it's complex enough that I'll have to work a few things out on my own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asiangotchi 34 Posted February 8, 2009 Yeah, but I thought they had an editor to watch out. Yesterday, I found another typo in the Music Star instructions: The instructions given at the door, the icon next to it is a TOILET instead of the door. -.-' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dancinkayley 7 Posted February 10, 2009 I've noticed that I see a lot of the same questions asked on Tamagotchi chat sites because of lack of information in the manual. I think that the Japanese Tamagotchi actually have a booklet for instructions while we just get a sheet of paper that sort of expects you to know a lot already. Like in the v5 instructions it says that the travel show acts like the pause function from previous versions. What if you've never used a previous version of Tamagotchi?

Ornithorynque 0 Posted February 11, 2009 I agree. I've never noticed typo's allthough for alot of the game instructions I can never understand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asiangotchi 34 Posted February 13, 2009 Well, I'm hoping they hire an editor for this. Typos basically mean that they're unprofessional. Even those lame virtual pet manuals have NO typos... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marierock13 4 Posted February 14, 2009 I think they just don't have time to check the manuals thourghly because their is such pressure on Bandai to realease such a large quantity of virtual pets in such a short time frame. The editors are rushed and there are so many deadlines that things just slip under the radar! Don't blame Bandai, blame the populus that is pressuring them so much, they have no TIME to edit!

Ornithorynque 0 Posted February 21, 2009 It's ridiculous that they don't have time to edit! They are professionals, and all professional's should edit their work. If you're not going to edit it, don't bother writing it. Not having enough time to edit is a terrible excuse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
petz578 0 Posted February 22, 2009 especially since there's such things as spell check, they should be able to check their work in just a click of a button. they also spelled the word "shop" wrong on page 5. they spelled it "shopt" in capitals. gee... what's with Bandai anyways, with all the typos and stuff?

Yeah, I saw that. I'm pretty sure the program they use to type these out have spell check. They should be able to catch these >_> -Asiangotchi- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mametchifan28 0 Posted February 25, 2009 Yeah,i don't really undertand those typos.They have to tell what it means,how to play the game etc... All we want is a understandable instructions about the game etc. If they don't have enough time to edit those typos.How about their enough time to made a tama versions....Making those spells correct is quicker/easier to do than making a tama version...

tamagotchi411 0 Posted March 2, 2009 I useally dont see Any typeos but I could be wrong. I'll take another look at my v6 directions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asiangotchi 34 Posted March 4, 2009 (edited) I useally dont see Any typeos but I could be wrong. I'll take another look at my v6 directions. Do you ever read the instructions? The typos are very clear. ALSO!! Look at Music City. There are several typos there too: 1. Logout Passwoed 2. Other band your join And on the music city help page, the website they tell you for more information reads Tamaotchi.com.

Icy Storm 0 Posted March 21, 2009 The V6 instructions have improved. They aren't as detailed as they should be but they are better than the other versions. If you have trouble just try to ask a friend who has tama's and knows how to use them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miracle 2 Posted April 18, 2009 The V6 instructions have improved. They aren't as detailed as they should be but they are better than the other versions. If you have trouble just try to ask a friend who has tama's and knows how to use them I agree with Icy here because the v6 instructions are better then some other versions. Although I did find some typos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
