  • A Blast from the Past – Pure Joy in a Tiny Toy!
Color: Sakura
I got Tamagotchis for my adult children this Christmas, and I can honestly say it was the hit of the holiday! As soon as they opened them, their faces lit up with excitement—it brought back so many nostalgic memories from their childhood. They were laughing, comparing pets, and instantly fell back into the rhythm of caring for their little digital companions. They were so into it, they didn’t even bother opening their other gifts right away! It was amazing to see how something so simple could spark so much fun and connection. It turned into a whole family moment full of laughter and stories from when they were kids. If you’re looking for a unique, joy-filled gift that mixes nostalgia with simple fun, a Tamagotchi is a perfect choice. It was worth every penny just to see their reactions—and now they’re all still playing with them like it’s 1997 again. Highly recommend for kids at heart of any age! ... show more

  • Fun and keeps kids busy
Color: 90s (Updated Logo)
I got this for my son for his birthday and it is just as I remember it as a child. The size is small fitting perfectly in a childs hand, the batter life is super super long, the quality is great and the color options are so cute! This brings me right back to my childhood. Great value!

  • Such a fun and nostalgic gift for my daughter!
Color: Angel Sky
Such a fun and nostalgic gift for my daughter! I bought this Tamagotchi for my daughter, and she absolutely loves it! It's been so fun watching her take care of her little virtual pet — feeding it, playing with it, and learning responsibility in a really cute and engaging way. It brought back so many memories from my own childhood, and now I get to share that same joy with her. The device is simple to use, the animations are adorable, and it keeps her entertained without being overwhelming. It’s the perfect mix of old-school charm and modern fun. Highly recommend for any parent looking to give their kid something a little different (and super fun)! ... show more

  • So much fun—my daughter loves it!
Color: Sprinkles (Updated Logo)
I had one of these when I was a kid, so I picked one up for my daughter, and it’s been a hit! It’s just like I remember—feeding, cleaning up after it, giving it medicine, and even disciplining it when it gets a little out of hand. 😂 The pink sprinkles shell is super cute, and my daughter really enjoys the character guessing game. She’s obsessed with taking care of it and watching it grow from an egg to an adult. It comes with the battery and a keychain, so she can take it with her everywhere. It’s been so fun to share this little piece of my childhood with her, and she’s loving it just as much as I did! ... show more

  • 80s babies unite.
Color: Lightning
I feel like the 90s were peak civilization, at least for me as a teen. I bought this solely out of nostalgia. I wanted to show it off to my kids. They played it for a week and then moved on. Oh well, their loss. I’ll keep it for myself then

  • Very fun to play with BUT teaches responsibility harshly... 10+
Color: Starry Shower
So it was very fun to play with, it's like a little digital pet you have to take care of. It beeps when it needs something. SCROLL DOWN IF YOU WANT A SHORT HELPFUL GUIDE ON HOW TO CARE FOR IT :) vvv WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR/TIPS & TRICKS: - A button is the button on the left. B button is the button in the middle. C button is the button on the right. - If it isn't taken good care of, the pet will 'die' aka it flys back up to its home planet. You can get a new one if you reset but it isn't the same pet and if your kid is below 9 they will most likely become distraught over it dying - If you feed it too many snacks (the cake) it will die before it turns into a teenager! You can feed it the burger only. - If it isn't disciplined or played with enough or it's weight is too high it will grow up to become an unattractive bad mannered alien. - When it needs something, it beeps. You can silence it (although that is the #1 leading cause of tamagotchi deaths) but if your children go to school then you need to take care of it while they are at school, unless you want them to be checking their tamagotchi every 10 minutes or having it beep. If they are in middle school or higher, then they can put it on their backpack and check it between periods/at lunch time. - Discplining it is clicking the button with the little head that's speaking/yelling. If it beeps even though its hunger and happiness is full, you need to click that button to discipline it. The more you discipline, the less it will beep when not needed which is what we want. You also need to discipline it if it refuses to eat when hungry or play when unhappy. - HERE'S HOW TO PLAY THE GAME: When you click the play button, a number will appear on the left. If you think the number on the right (there is no number on the right YET) will be higher then it, click the B button. If you think the number that the number on the left will be higher then the number that will appear on the right, click the A button. - All the responsibilities might seem a little stressful, right? But as your tamagotchi grows up, it will become less maintenance. - It will eventually die of natural age LUCKILY things you can do to increase its lifespan are: - Keep in tiptop shape. My rule of thumb is even when it doesn't beep, check every 10-15 minutes. If a heart is gone for HUNGRY or HAPPINESS play with it or feed it! - Play with it. As much as possible. Not a lot but I'd recommend 30 minutes of play total a day. Playing with it also keeps its weight down, and the more it weighs the less it'll live :( - Only discipline when necessary! ... show more

  • Great toy!
Color: Ginjirotchi Comic Book
The kids love this toy! It takes me back to when 8 was little. The battery life is fantastic, it’s loads of fun to play and the small size is great for bringing it along anywhere.

  • No es lo que recordaba
Color: Lightning
Es muy pequeño y a veces difícil de ver la pantalla porque no tiene luz. El sonido de los botones y del juego a veces puede ser abrumador porque es demasiado fuerte. El juego es aburrido y se tarda mucho en completar una ronda. Adicionalmente, se moría siempre de repente al tercer día, por lo que tuve que investigar mucho hasta que me encontré un artículo que mencionaba el peso y la comida. Al parecer no se recomienda darle pastel y hay pesos recomendados para cada edad: bebé - 5Lb / Niño - 10Lb / Adolescente - 20Lb / Adulto - 30Lb Si ves que el peso comienza a sobrepasar esas cifras, debes jugar para que pierda el peso. Ninguna de estas instrucciones está en el manual ni es fácil encontrar esa información. Finalmente, creo que estas reediciones no son tan divertidas, no se puede “pausar” por lo que debes estar 100% pendiente, es demasiado pequeño y las opciones de actividades son muy pocas y aburridas, en general tenía un recuerdo muy diferente de lo que era. ... show more
