42903B2 Pix Blue, Single, Ages 6 +

Truly, I have one mainline Tamagotchi from every release, and while I like some better than others, the fact of the matter is, they're just too expensive to buy now. Currently on the market there are three feasible options for a new Tama collector. You can buy one of the original 1996 remakes that come in a variety of shells. Or you could buy a Tamagotchi Nano which is just as simple as the 1996 remakes but have some interesting license tie-in's such as Hello Kitty, Pac-man, Gudetama.... etc. But with either of these choice, they're ultimately very simple pets and won't offer much for their price. Then there are color Tamagotchis and you have two routes if you're buying what's currently being manufactured: The Tamagotchi Smart or the Tamagotchi Pix. The Smart is a Japanese release. Simple gameplay with a four-panel touch screen control. It's a cute device but there's not much to do on it and it's not future proof. With it's rechargeable battery, one day that device is going to have issues. And if you're not interested in an expensive import from Japan with Japanese text, then might I suggest the Pix? The pix is the bigger cousin to the Smart--charged with batteries (but you can buy rechargeable batteries, which is what I do) and also touts touch controls; except the controls this time are three touch sensitive buttons. It takes a bit of getting used to, and you're bound to have a few accidental inputs, but I would say that it's actually a lot more fun than the Tamagotchi Smart. You can grow/raise adorable characters (no gene mixing) every time. You can do cute activities like throw parties which have new activities each time you throw one. Invite friends over and explore places together. You can use the built-in camera for exploring, taking photos, collecting colors for painting items (red, blue, white and yellow), making all kinds of new food. You can take your Tama to the park, the arcade (with new games that rotate everyday), the store to buy goods and even do a daily raffle. At home you can order in pizza or furniture via the phone and decorate your home with said furniture. You can even update your Tamagotchi's social media with photos, captions and filters... lol. And after about a week you don't need to wrestle with the decision of marrying off your Tama, for in a weeks time, they ask you to put a photo album together so you have a keepsake once they journey back to their home planet. I really like this aspect because then it's not up to me to decide how long I keep my lil' friend and I know I have only a week to spend time with them and make the most of it! But I should note that with max care and friendship, your Tama can actually stay longer. I'd say the Pix really impressed with me with the amount of fun and changeable content. With the On/Meets line of Tamagotchis, I found myself a little bored after unlocking all locations. It boiled down to seeing what my Tamagotchi evolved into then marry it off soon after. Don't get me wrong, the Meets/On have their charm but I'm liking the break from the gene mixing and the new features the pix introduced. It's a big toy and fairly expensive but once they stop being manufactured that price will climb. The Pix maybe your thing, it may not. But you'll never know until you try it.

Been a fan of Tamagotchi since I was a little girl. As a collector, of course I had to get this one, since I missed my chance to get the On. I bought a used one that arrived in perfect condition. The previous owner even took care to make sure most of the packaging was in decent shape, even the instruction manual was inside. After having had mine for weeks, I love nearly everything about the Pix Party! The size, much bigger than previous Tamagotchis, is excellent for my no-longer-tiny hands. The shape is ergonomic, with the shell not being as shallow as old school Tamagotchis. It's surprisingly lightweight, the faceplate colors are prettier in real life than in the promo pictures, the touch buttons (I've had no issues with the touch buttons and I have clumsy fingers....) are responsive and sensitive. You do NOT need to press hard. The graphics are light-years ahead of the old digital-watch style that older Tamagotchis have. This one has full color graphics with adjustable backlight and smooth animation. The buttons follow the same user style (A=browse, B=choose, C=cancel/back). The interface is adorable. The clock screen is pastel and cute, the menu is easy to navigate and chock full of fun stuff to do with your Tama including Explore (meet new tamas) and the Park (also meet new or familiar tamas). The camera function is pretty neat! I've watched tons of YouTube reviews of this, so I recommend watching those before buying. You can take photos and even use some of the photos as part of the mini games! Using the camera more than twice will kill cheap batteries in 2 days. Rechargeable batteries are recommended. The camera has very poor color recognition. I notice it needs very bright colors or colors shown on digital screens like cellphones or laptops. It has extreme difficulty picking up the color green. These Tamas don't have their own babies or get married. Instead you raise and care for a random Tama that eventually returns to the Tamagotchi Planet once you fulfill your mission. They choose a career and go back home, then, they select an egg to leave behind for you to raise. This takes about one week, so have as much fun as you can with your baby! If your Tama dies, you can start over with a new egg without losing all your progress, however, the generations will start over at Gen 1. Being able to decorate and renovate the room is great, and the speech bubbles make interacting with the characters in the Tamagotchi world more immersive! Collect coupons to pay less for room renovations. Unlike previous Tamagotchi devices, you can hire a babysitter to watch your Tama while you're busy/at work/at school. You get 0 interruptions and don't lose progress inless a very long time goes by. The nanny only costs 100 gotchi points to hire. Games reward you 210 gotcha points tops. Arcade games change daily, and I've beaten all of the ones I've come across. Just be patient with getting used to the touch buttons. Changing the faceplate to a DIY one made from a sticky note made the buttons more responsive. Overall amazing purchase. I don't regret getting this for myself as an early Christmas gift. (If you're wondering, the Sanrio thing in the background of one of my review photos is the Loungefly Hello Kitty and Friends gacha machine backpack. Also from Amazon.)

So great

El Tamagotchi Pix es mucho más que un simple juguete, es una experiencia de cuidado virtual que combina lo clásico con la modernidad de una manera emocionante. Como fanático de los Tamagotchis de toda la vida, no podía esperar para probar esta nueva versión y debo decir que no me ha decepcionado en absoluto. Una de las primeras cosas que noté fue su pantalla a color. Esto le da vida a tu mascota virtual de una manera que nunca antes habíamos experimentado en un Tamagotchi. Los colores son brillantes y vibrantes, lo que hace que la interacción sea aún más divertida y visualmente atractiva. Además, la cámara incorporada agrega un elemento completamente nuevo al juego. Puedes tomar fotos de tu mascota virtual y ver cómo interactúa con el entorno que lo rodea, lo que es un toque realmente genial. La jugabilidad del Tamagotchi Pix es tan adictiva como siempre. Debes cuidar de tu mascota virtual alimentándola, jugando con ella y asegurándote de que esté feliz y saludable. Lo que me gusta de esta versión es que hay más actividades y minijuegos para disfrutar. Esto mantiene las cosas interesantes y te da la oportunidad de ganar monedas virtuales que puedes usar para comprar artículos para tu mascota. El diseño de los botones táctiles es un avance agradable. Son suaves al tacto y responden de manera precisa, lo que facilita la navegación por los menús y la selección de actividades. La facilidad de uso es una de las razones por las que los Tamagotchis siempre han sido tan populares, y esta versión no es una excepción. Otro aspecto emocionante del Tamagotchi Pix es la posibilidad de conectarlo con otros Tamagotchis Pix. Esto te permite interactuar y jugar con amigos, lo que agrega una dimensión social a la experiencia. Es divertido ver cómo tus mascotas virtuales interactúan entre sí y cómo se desarrollan diferentes amistades y personalidades. En cuanto a la duración de la batería, es bastante decente. Aunque la pantalla a color consume más energía que las versiones anteriores en blanco y negro, aún obtienes varias semanas de juego antes de que sea necesario cambiar las baterías. En resumen, el Tamagotchi Pix es una evolución emocionante de un clásico atemporal. Combina la nostalgia con las características modernas de manera brillante. Si alguna vez fuiste fanático de los Tamagotchis o si estás buscando una forma divertida de cuidar a una mascota virtual, esta es una excelente elección. Te sumergirás en la diversión y la emoción de criar y cuidar a tu propio amigo virtual. ¡Altamente recomendado para niños y adultos por igual! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Perfetto

Completamente perfeito, tenho outros tamagochis coloridos (paradise e uni) mas esse se tornou meu favorito: • muitos personagens, e vc pode influenciar qual vai ter de acordo com o cuidado que dá e as comidas que ele come antes de virar adulto • a função de câmera é muito divertida e interativa, e vc pode baixar acessórios e comidas para seu tama de graça, cozinhar pra ele com cores, além de convidar outros Tamas para virem na sua casa • Não usa wifi como o Uni, mas a câmera para se "comunicar": ele tem muitos qrcodes pré salvos e que você encontra facilmente na Internet, e que quando lidos pela câmera causam que algo aconteça ou apareça para seu Tama. Você pode usar os códigos quantas vezes quiser, sempre que quiser! • precisa de 2 pilhas AAA, e elas acabam bem rápido, sugiro comprar um kit de pilhas recarregáveis e carregador para poder ir trocando. As minhas duram cerca de uma semana a 10 dias por carga. • existem várias capinhas de silicone, mas você pode improvisar uma de crochê. Ele é feito de plástico e risca fácil. Precisa desparafusar toda vez que for trocar as pilhas, mas com a capinha eu deixo ele sem o parafuso para praticidade. • você encontra muitos qrcodes de tamas de outras pessoas para virem te visitar no Pinterest. • os botões são apenas táteis, e causam estranheza de começo, mas sinceramente prefiro eles aos botões travados dos nano e originais. A função de fazer carinho é adorável, e utiliza muito bem os botões. Alguns joguinhos ficam mais complicados do que o necessário por conta dos botões, mas é possível jogar tudo apenas usando uma mão. • ele é mais gordinho e redondo do que outros tamas, e o topo onde apertamos para a câmera as vezes pode ser apertado sem querer por conta do formato de ovo, mas isso não atrapalha em nada, e o tamanho é ótimo para mãozinhas menores. E para mãos adultas tbm!
