The Tamagotchi is a small electronic egg, in the you have to feed and care for a virtual pet. What initially a simple chick was supplemented at the end with a lot of news.

It came on 12 May 1997 the German market and for a few months, it beeped at every corner - then suddenly it was gone. gathering dust in drawers ... Forget ... and gone - almost overnight.


What is it now?

long was it simply not even mentioned, but since 2004 lives every now and again a new version of "Tamagotchi Connexion Familitchi" on. There it is now possible, a whole family of Tamagotchi have to have children to marry, to unite with other Tamagotschis etc
