TamagotchiOriginal - Retro Flowers

I loved these when I was small. I remember taking care of my pet and playing games to keep it happy. I was so happy to be able to buy one for my kids and for them to experience how fun it is. The battery has lasted long and the sound is perfect . The image is great as well.

Very cute and iconic. My tamogotchi lasted about 3 days before it left for space though… lol

I look for Tamagotchi for long time.come fast and work as expected.

(This review is for the 25th Anniversary version, but for whatever reason it shows it as for the Black color shell I bought previously)It wouldn't let me review the 25th Anniversary version without deleting my old review, but this is for the new one. It's identical to the first Tamagotchis that came out in the US other than some minor additions (like battery low indicator). Similar to the other rereleases, the speaker connection uses a spring. This is what causes the sound to be obnoxiously loud at times. Anyone who is wondering if it's louder than you remember--yes it is. I have a few vintage Tamagotchis from that time and they are much quieter. I modified one of my other shells so that the connection between the speaker and the contacts on the PCB is via two wires instead and it was MUCH quieter. Unfortunately it is a design flaw that has persisted in all remake models. The sound can be distorted and extremely loud as a result. Thankfully it can be muted by pressing the right button and then the left button at the same time. You can do this while on the time screen to pause it as well in case you are busy (it will say SET, and freeze your progress until you set the time again).Other than that mostly it is exactly the same. There is a new logo on this version, and if you're buying it for pure nostalgia you may not like that. Personally for me the jury's out on whether it's better or not, I'm mostly neutral on the change with a slight preference to the old one since...well, it's how it originally looked.Do note if you get anything other than a plain color or clear plain colored shell (like if you get a shell with a fancy printed design) that the designs can wear off on these as I've found with one of my others. Also, they are kind of grainy/have a low resolution look to the print on them if that makes any sense.As for the 25th anniversary shell, it's kind of a pearlescent purple color--the pictures don't really look anywhere near as nice as it does in person. These types of simple color shells tend to hold up to wear the best when it comes to these remake Tamagotchis.The oldest I've seen anyone raise the new ones is, coincidentally, 25 years. It seems giving your Tamagotchi snacks in this one will possibly lower its lifespan compared to the older ones.Overall it's a pretty faithful reproduction, the battery change is nice as CR2032s are easier to get than LR44s, but the speaker issue is a major flaw preventing me from giving five stars.

I got a couple to gift and they were well loved. They are very small and very fun. There are a few different possible outcomes for the characters: you can get a normal one, a special one, a selfish one, and a mean one. There may even be more. They evolve 3 times. They beep very loudly when they need attention (more often when they hatch and less often on the following days). It is easy to understand, but I wouldn't let a kid take it to school (it could disrupt the class). Overall, very cute and fun! :)

Love the throwback of these!

My Grandchild really likes it and it is pretty neat. Good price for it also!

I had great memories of this toy as a child, but I don't know if I would repurchase for my daughter. It doesn't have any way to turn it off or pause it. I know that's probably how it always has been, but with technology now, it would be better to have a "pet" that you can at least tell what hours to be active in. It is active at all times...even when my child is at school. She obviously can't take care of it then and then it tends to die quickly. She gets very frustrated. Not sure I would rebuy even though the nostalgia is fun for me.

Great little toy for our daughter. Its interactive and she loves taking care of her digital pet. The sound can be turned off which is appreciated sometimes.

Bought it for my 11 years old child. Is a smart way to teach kids the importance to take care of someone else. As well as the consequences of neglect. My only remark is about the screen which is not bright enough and is difficult to see the character.

Es el cuarto que adquiero para mis hijos,buena calidad,original,llego 2 días antes de la fecha indicada,bien empacado para su protección.

I purchased this as a gift for my niece so I don't have a picture but she loves it! It takes me back to when I was younger and had them myself! Of course now both of my girls have asked for them from the Easter bunny so we will be getting 2 more!
