I've had my tamagotchi nano for a very long time but over the years, due to a few mishandlings, I've dropped it a few times and it's not functioning as it should be.
I can get it to start after putting in the batteries and restarting it - hearing the beep sound and then it loads the clock...
My parents and friends both know. Whilst my family doesn't object to my collection my friends know i'm weird so I try not to show them often.
