Tamagotchi Connection Original

  

  • It’s typically $60 for a new unit, though now you can find it on sale since the recent announcement of the Tamagotchi Pix. It’s much bigger than the original Tamagotchi, requiring two AA.
  • But a lot of them are really nice to explore, it gives you Tamagotchi Connection a whole new dimension ^^. The Tamagotchi Connection has got more secret characters than the Plus version. I guess this has got to do with the Keitai Tamagotchi. The Keitai uses some of the characters that are hidden in the Connection, but not in the Plus.

How to debug you Tamagotchi Connection?

Tamagotchi Connection V2

Huh? What are you talking about, my tamagotchi is working just fine!

Well... I learned from Tamatalk and the Tamenagerie that you can perform a little trick on your Tamagotchi Connection. This enables you to choose any character you like and have it run in hyperspeed if you want to. The 'magic' trick only works for the American Connection or Japanese Plus tamagotchi, so don't bother to open up a Tamagotchi Connexion.

The next 'tutorial' will show you what to do. Please don't do this if you want to keep your (shop) guarantee or are afraid to screw anything up. It worked fine for me, but I can't guarantee you that this is without any risk.

The Surgery

Turn your Tamagotchi around so that your facing the back and unscrew it. Ah, that's not so difficult right?

Use a tiny screwdriver (like the one in the picture) to unscrew the four smaller screws. Take the battery out and open your tamagotchi.

Debugging
Connection

Put the battery in again and use a piece of tape to keep it in place. On the left bottom of the battery you will notice a word that says debug, keep your eye on that one.

Now take a regular pencil and rub over those two little silver semi-circles (under the word debug) a couple of times. I scratched them gently for about 8 times. The Japanese plus Tamagotchi uses two squares above the word debugging, rub those.

I guess this makes a lead between the two pieces. I also tried connecting them with a paperclip or aluminium foil, but this didn't work for me.

The final
Turn your tamagotchi around and make sure your battery doesn't fall out. Now press the reset button on the back and choose 'reset' on your screen. If your debugging worked out the right way you should be able to switch between characters with the A button (that's the first one). Now put your Tamagotchi back together (make sure the battery stays in place) and explore it some more ^_^.Tamagotchi

Don't worry if your egg just hatched like it normally would and you get to choose a name. Just scratch the debugging pieces a little more, don't scratch them off though! Just rubbing would do fine. It took me a while before I could debug my Tamagotchi plus, but the Connection debugged after one try.

So, what to do now? Just choose the character you like best and hit the B button to confirm this. After that you can just raise it like you would with a normal Tama. But you can also use the C button (that's the right button) to speed things up ^_^. This hypertime will automatically stop when your Tama has got to use the toilet or when he gets hungry and so on. After such an event you can press the C button again, untill you get dizzy from your hyper tama character.

Peek-a-Boo
These are some of the secret characters you can play with once you have debugged the tamagotchi:

They all eat different food, some of them drink something that looks like sake! It looks like not all animations are included. For instance you won't see them falling if you miss a hurdle in the hurdle game. Some of them aren't even showing any emotion at all (O_o). But a lot of them are really nice to explore, it gives you Tamagotchi Connection a whole new dimension ^_^.

Tamagotchi Connection Version 4.5

The Tamagotchi Connection has got more secret characters than the Plus version. I guess this has got to do with the Keitai Tamagotchi. The Keitai uses some of the characters that are hidden in the Connection, but not in the Plus.

Tamagotchi History: In an Egg Shell

The World's First Virtual Pet is Born
Tamagotchi, the original virtual pet, first made its impact in pop culture history when Bandai launched the product in 1996, selling more then 40 million units worldwide and 12 million units in the United States and Canada. The launch of Tamagotchi not only spurred the virtual pet phenomenon of the 90s, but it also created a brand new toy category and prompted countless virtual pet imitators. During its peak, 15 Tamagotchi units were sold every minute in the U.S. and Canada.

The originator of Tamagotchi is none other then Bandai employee, Aki Maita, who was searching for the perfect companion that worked with her busy lifestyle and small apartment, and that was tiny enough for her to tote around with her wherever she went. Thus born the world's first virtual pet.

The Next Generation of Tamagotchi - Tamagotchi Connection
Over the past five years, Tamagotchi fans have been clamoring for the return of this brand. According to recent Internet research conducted by Bandai, 100 percent of consumers were aware of Tamagotchi and 85 percent of respondents had played with Tamagotchi — even seven years after its original launch in Japan. Based on this market research and high consumer demand, Bandai decided to launch the advanced Tamagotchi Connection incorporating the elements of the original product with new advanced technology.

The egg-shaped toy simulates the life cycle of a pet, letting kids experience the fun and responsibility of feeding, tending to and caring for their virtual pet. The advanced Tamagotchi Connection features new infrared communication functions allowing the virtual pet to become friends with other Tamagotchi, visit its friends to give gifts or play games together, and eventually have a possible second, third and fourth generation virtual pet.

Tamagotchi Phenomenon, Revisited
The new Tamagotchi Connection is on track to replicate its original success staring in Japan where the first product on the shelf sold out in two days. Tamagotchi Connection is one of the first items to be released in time for the holidays that retailers are anticipating will reinvigorate toy sales. Stay tuned as the virtual pet craze resurfaces and more generations of Tamagotchi are born into this world!
