Hello! It’s KidRetro64 here. Back in the day, I used to spend every second of my spare time on this site. As a naive 10 year old, TamaTalk gave me a space to show off my passion of Tamagotchis and it was really the perfect environment for my young self to get to know others who also had a...

Since I’m a huge Vocaloid fan I feel like it’s obligatory of me to Pre-Order the new Hatsune Miku themed Nanos. Only problem is that Bandai’s Japanese website is currently shipping to Asia and the USA only. Does anyone know how I could have one ordered to Scotland? And is there a chance that...

Thanks for letting me know about this!  :lol: I never knew that they sold these in the UK, I assumed that they were only a US and Canada release. There’s actually an Entertainer shop opening near me in a few weeks so I might pop in once it’s open and get one for myself!

Personally I’ve bought vintage Tamagotchis NIB and with batteries still in them, and I have never had a problem with them. This does vary from the climate that they have been stored in though. Obviously if it’s been exposed to water or moisture the battery most likely will have defects, but this...

Realistically, scams and fakes are unavoidable. Even for people like me and you who know their Fakes from their legitimate items, there will be people who false advertise. I have definitely been scammed before, and also overcharged. Ebay is full of people like this.

I never knew this existed! I’ll definitely try this when I’m next buying anything on there. Honestly there are quite a lot of Tamagotchi ‘resellers’ even to this day. I think Etsy has the most, and some of them even sell fakes along with genuine items? I’m not sure why. The amount of videos on...

It’s been a while since I’ve posted on this forum (also, 20,000 views! Thank you all!) so I thought I would get your guys input on this. Has anyone else been seeing less bootleg/fake Tamagotchis on eBay recently? It might just be me, but as I was scrolling through the ‘Tamagotchi’ search...

Pretty much every bootleg V-Pet to ever exist has the same shell mould, poorly designed and cheaply made. There's no originality or uniqueness, just a carbon copy of something it isn't.

Have you ever dropped your Tamagotchi or exposed it to water? If you have it could have damaged some of the internals. My only other guess to the problem would maybe be the brand of batteries? If you can, try a different kind.

My 1 and 2 storey houses used to do this all the time! What I used to do is take the batteries out and put them back in. Works for me, but if it doesn’t for you; try a different brand.

I bought them 2 days ago from Sainsbury’s, so I would hope so!  :P It’s been in a drawer for 6 months without use with all my other Bandai Tamagotchis. I’ve played with them on and off with no trouble.

Hello, folks!  :) In spite of easter, I decided a few days ago to run my Usatama in celebration. I went ahead today and removed the old batteries, and popped in the new. I’d done this numerous times before, so I didn’t think anything of it. As soon as I put the new ones in, the screen was...

It really looks like it! The illustrations are rather.. bizarre. I suppose you can understand up to the Milk Carton and Apple.. but they just get stranger from there. Whoever decided on those needs to be fired  :P

Name: ‘Hey Kitty’ Virtual Pet Type: Fake Notes: It has an identical shell to the Bandai Hello Kitty Tamagotchi; as well as saying ‘Hey Kitty’ on the bottom of the shell. It runs the Bunny ROM and the internals are identical to the 150-In 1 Tamagotchis.

Hi everyone! Haven’t used this forum in a while.. but I do have something pretty great to share. It’s another generic VPet with the Bunny ROM, but it has a really similar shell to the Hello Kitty Tamagotchi? I’ll let you see for yourself.. it’s pretty accurate. The thing that surprised me the...
