Hi hi!

I received tama mail today, which was my Christmas gift to myself. I received a used Tamagotchi P1 (from 1996/1997)! I did also buy a Digimon X2 and Sumikko Gurashi Mikke...! I may possibly log those too but Sumikko will not be here until next week

Quick backstory: I got into tamas again with the re-release of the originals in 2018, because I had never owned the originals myself! My first tama was a tamagotchi connection V1, but I remember some people still had the originals when connections were popular, and I was always fascinated by all the vintage tamas.

Anyways, I heard repeatedly that the programming was different on the tamagotchi original remakes, making them easier to kill. They are so easy to kill with snacks it's just crazy. So, I wanted to try the original ones for myself...

So that's why I finally caved in and bought one! Mostly because I fell in love with the shell, as purple is my favourite colour. :lol:
The first thing I noticed is that button presses and even the animations are more "laggy" and "choppy" but it makes it charming and helps me slow down instead of rushing through animations.

Anyway, we will see how much easier it is to raise a tama to adult! (I accidentally overfed snacks already and accidentally disciplined too as a baby stage... oops)

Here are pics, I got to Marutchi tonight!

(It's strange, because the writing on the back is in english, but the meal/snack buttons are text instead of icons, just like a Japanese tama. I wonder if it is a European release? I attatched 2 extra pics to show)

Tamatchi is here!
I love Tamatchi's derpy eyes (Marutchi too)

Look at dat face! It just makes you wanna squeeze it!

Before evolving into Tamatchi, Marutchi got to full disciplined! I'm surprised I managed since I kept my tama muted while working

Of course after evolving, we're back to halff now

I'm not entirely sure how discipline and care mistakes plays into evolution for P1 but I wonder who we're gonna get! (I almost always get bad or sometimes average care when I don't pause!)

I took a photo on the 15th but I didn't get around to posting it because I wasn't feeling too great BUT! Here's our adult evo...

Behold! Chunky Mametchi!

I must have gotten really lucky or something! But now I know without a doubt that the programming is more forgiving on the original tamagotchi P1 lol. I never get good characters on the connections either so I'm just... surprised!

But I guess I WAS taking this tama everywhere I went...
But now I've been neglecting poor Mametchi as I've been ill and busy and he just doesn't wanna die! I guess it's true the good care characters really are hardier. BUt who knows how long Mametchi can take this abuse. I'm a terrible tama mama sometimes...!
