How is one supposed to say tamagotchi. I say Tom-a-got-chi

[@LovelyLor]

ta-ma-gotch-i I say it more tam-a-gat-chi the first A i pronounce too harshly and the O I say more as an A. I had a lot of people complaining in my tama depa video that they couldn't watch it because of my pronunciation so I wanted to make a lil disclaimer. If you look up some american commercials and then japanese you will hear the difference :) I think the way you say it, is closer to the japanese way :3 It's hard to tell through type haha

[@meganlilyflower]

I tried to look up a commercial and I got a movie....O.o THERE'S A MOVIE?

[@thalia955]

meganlilyflower yea!!! It's actually kinda good lol

[@IvyVinez]

Well, the Japanese spelling is: たまごっち Lit. tamagocchi so I assume* in Japanese it is said ta ma (which both rhyme) go small space here and chi. As a kid I did always say it tamagotchi but my "ta" still rhymed with ma" then said the word got chi (like got you/chu but with an i at the end) Like you. :)

[@natalia8216]

meganlilyflower I say tom-uh-gotchi

[@Velqil]

The gudetama tamagotchi has a predator. The “predator” were chopsticks that would try to turn your egg into an egg dish

[@sayahhlicia]

Omg TamaTown was a lost memory for me! As soon as you played that music the hours on that site all came rushing back! I grew up with Connection v2 and v3 (loved the florals) and I'm binging your videos as I gear up for my first Tamagotchi On :)

[@tiffersome]

I had no idea Tamagotchis were still being made. Since you posted this video, I've bought a Tamagotchi V3 (Ice Cream Shell) off eBay and a Tamagotchi m!x in HobbyLink Japan's sale. You got me obsessed! Thanks, Lovely Lor!

[@bunnniel]

Hope you bought the new one too! :)

[@LunarNightLights]

background music too lloud, drowns you out :/

[@funwithimogen]

exactly

[@mintjaan]

I remember getting the McDonald's toy in '98 and I told everyone it was a real tamagotchi

[@drauc]

Awesome vid, I realized when you stopped at 2016 the video wasn't from this year lol. I'd love an updated version going into the features and what all you can do in depth for 2017-2021. There doesn't seem to be many videos like this on KZbin where they go in depth with the functions and what you can do and comparing different versions unfortunately.

[@1anre]

Exactly. Did you find any videos?

[@maeganh1169]

Thanks...now I'm impulse buying a tamagotchi xD I never had one as a kid but I did have a nano frog and a nano puppy. They were so much fun.

[@bunnniel]

There's a new one called Tamagotchi Meets! It's in Japanese but very easy to use. :)

[@crusadertwo239]

@@bunnniel now there's the on

[@parkerstack8989]

I remember my first tamagotchi was a v4.. I went on a trip with my family to Scotland and I left it on the plane. Such a sad moment for me

[@EBETZEN]

I had the angel one when I was a kid and I loved it. I was the only one in class who knew how to turn off the sound so mine didn't get taken up by the teacher. 😅

[@DieQuenn]

7:16 OMG THIS WARS MINE FIRST TAMAGOTCHI 😭😍😍 THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO I LOVE YOU

[@MimiMangetsu]

Omg I miss tamatown and gosupermodel so much, they were my fav websites when I was a kid but now they are gone ;___;

[@CallMeTheChickenLord]

I miss the music game in tamatown

[@GalladofBales]

Omg also I miss Tama Town when I used to go on with my v4 that clip you used was so nostalgic for me. I remember playing the game where Mametchi had to balance a sandwich a lot haha.

[@nintendoLove777]

GalladofBales i remember I loved that site and I went back to it a couple years ago and it's down now :c but then a couple years before that I think it was still up.

[@LauraTheLeopard]

I never had a tamgotchi but i played the ds games, and i missed them so much i bought them again as an adult. they are so relaxing!

[@LovelyLor]

YES!!!! I love the first corner shop so much! I like the dentist shop haha the cavities are so cute

[@LauraTheLeopard]

i just love all the adorable sound effects

[@urbanmusiq]

Thanks so much for this awesome Video!! It was very informative :) The only thing id like to point out is that the Nano's do have a game, it's just a simple word catch game where you have to spell out the word tamagotchi as they letters fall down :) Again, Great video! :D

[@GalladofBales]

Okay so my introduction to Tamagotchi as a kid was another student in my elementary school class had one and I was so jealous. It was probably a p1/p2 but I can't remember. My younger sister got a v3 for christmas one year and I don't think my parents realized how much I had really wanted one, and assumed it was just for little kids. The first tamagotchi I owned myself was a v4, which is still one of my favorites honestly. When I was obsessed as a kid I researched all the previous releases so I knew all about the classic releases as well as the connections. In my current collection I have 11 tamas: 1 p2 1 v2 1 v3 1 v4 1 v4.5 1 uratama 2 v5 1 v6 2 4U Of the ones I have I enjoy the connections before v5 the most. I liked them better back when they were more simple. I did however really enjoy running the 4Us because they kinda went back to a more simple formula, although I dislike how they removed the teen growth stage (some of my fave characters are teens!) I might wanna get a M!X at some point though bc that's a really cool concept, and the design is so cute. I really would like to add an angelgotchi and tamagotchi ocean to my collection bc I think the classic themed ones are so cool and I love the shell designs.

[@skaisnotdead]

This was SOOO helpful. I just started collecting. I only had Nano pet and Giga pets as a kid but bought my first tama in college. Just getting back into it and this guide is AMAZING

[@xeokym223]

Tamagotchi Angel had predator, also. A bat would fly in and you had to tap the screen repeatedly to make it go away. Tamagotchi Ocean had USA release but the fad was dying by then and was very difficult to find. Tamagotchi "garden" was to be USA version of ForestGatchi, but got canceled. ForestGatchi is about bug life cycles and was extremely difficult to keep alive. I have a Japanese one and if you didn't keep close attentive watch, it would die very easily.

[@pixiebug_]

THE TAMATOWN MUSIC OH MY GOSH you just unlocked a long hidden memory of mine😭😭

[@LucielGhost]

I recently got a P1 rerelease tamagotchi! It's rainbow and sparkly! And I've been taking care of my little brother's gudetama tamagatchi for him. I love them.

[@Dollymayfrosty]

This video is such a lifesaver omg. I've been wanting to get back into tamagatci SO bad, but just haven't been able to sort through all the different releases.

[@evelynfeylore2563]

The Tamagotchi Angel does also have a predator (a bat). And the Tama Ocean was released in the US, I owned one of those and the Angel as well.

[@peter89013]

I was obsessed with tamagotchis. I still have all 7. My first was the blue V4 connection. I don't play with them anymore but They were a big chunk of my childhood next to Lego, Furby, and Matchbox cars. (pokemon cards too. Oh I also have a P1 too. I always loved Tamatown. I played it so much.

[@jodipearson567]

It's been a month since isolation was announced. Uni closed early so I used some of my student loan to buy a tamagotchi. It's coming on Monday and I cannot wait!

[@spectacularbear]

Tamagotchi Dream Friends was also sold at Overwaitea Foods group grocery stores in Canada. Yeah idk either

[@DanielRodFer]

You jumped version 4.5, with the star antenna. And the v5 in the US was called Familitchi.

[@floppybaconx3]

So much information in a video and this definitely makes me want to get some tamagotchi!!!

[@BlueberryOcha]

The first Tamagotchi I had was the one that came with the Happy Meal. The one that stands out to me the most is Tamagotchi Mix. My favorite Character that I really love was Mametchi. He was so cute and I played the DS games of Tamagotchi that I enjoyed a lot when I was young. And after that I really like Lovelitchi, I first found out about her in the anime adaption of Tamagotchi.

[@uncreativerabbit3160]

I had one in the early 2000s and was terrified of it when it died because of the high pitched noise! it was the yellow one with the red border, so the connect? I love the DS games though, flowers and laundry!

[@TheMunchkin66]

Thank you for this video!!! As one of my favorite youtubers, and as a big collector myself, I'm so glad to see you do this

[@kawaiiikaty]

ahhh this video is all i ever wanted!!! Also i cant wait for special gudetama ones to be released!! ^^

[@alii9237]

Kawaiikaty SAME

[@nostop2046]

Are those going to be released in English?! 😯

[@joa6336]

The tamagotchi connections were a huge thing in my school xD everyone had one

[@SebastianSeanCrow]

How can anyone forget our little egg friends? When I was a boy, tamagotchi were still SOOO popular that lots of companies in the US were doing their own bootleg version and I had one of these copycats lol. I’d love to have an actual tamagotchi though.

[@SnapesHoney2800]

I own both the Tamagochi Angel and Ocean. I bought the Ocean one directly from the company.

[@Hansqueww]

6:50 Omg wasn't ready the hear the tamatown music... it breaks my heart that they took the site down ;_;

[@evildeed90s]

im 30 year old man and love my tamagotchi it goes everywhere with me

[@PhoenIXPhantasies]

You forgot the Kakeibo (connectable to Uratama and Entama) and the ID/L Station (connectable to the ID and IDL). But overall good compilation!

[@PhoenIXPhantasies]

And Genjitchi and TamaOch xD

[@Mintfaery]

I wanted the Mothra one sooooo badlyyyy. Still. Want.

[@Mintfaery]

Omg and I didn't know about Santa so now I NEED HIM. Looking forward to more toy vids!

[@maeganh1169]

Wait...there is a mothra?

[@evqa06]

@@maeganh1169 yeah. there are a ton of weird and obscure tamagotchi.

[@littlefairydreams350]

I had a Nano Puppy growing up. My first Tamagotchi was the V1 Connection. I am saving up for a Tamagotchi Mix. I would love to have an English version of the colour released here in Canada.

[@xsakisaki]

lol you weren't kidding when you said I'd learn a lot from this video! I had NO idea that there were that many! I wish I could remember which ones I had as a kid but I'm guessing it was somewhere between 1998-2000 something?? The Sanrio mix looks SO cute I wanna play it!

[@MilkiiPrincess]

Oooh it was so interesting to learn about all the different releases! I now really want to get the sanrio mix one *^* When I was a kid I was a tamagotchi fanatic, I had from the v3 through the last one they released in America (but my favorite was the v4~)

[@hollysadler-evans5406]

I think I had the first Tamagotchi Connection and one of the later versions with an antenna with a ball :P I saw it in the video and got excited! You should make a post talking about where to buy them :'3 I miss my ones so much now I want to get a new one!

[@VHeartOld]

I had no idea Tamagochi had evolved this much!! They're so expensive now, I so wish I could get the Sanrio collab one;;;

[@VHeartOld]

I'm actually totally considering getting the Sanrio mix one now! I'm not sure, anyone think it's worth it for a newbie?

[@sarahkate9060]

Sugarbon_Pop it's definitely worth it if you're willing to pay nearly $80

[@toastweek3745]

Such a good video, thanks for making this it must have been a big effort with all that information haha! So many Tamagotchis I didn't know about and want!!! Aaaahhhh... How do you go playing Japanese ones? Do you speak the language or is it easy enough without understanding?

[@ObjectSociety]

I have 10 tamagotchi and love them all

[@jerrypie1230]

i used to have a tamagotchi game on my nintendo ds and i didn't released up until this day that all the tamagotchi characters were in there wow

[@odditygrdn]

I had forgotten about tamatown, oh gosh! My childhood!

[@scientistservant]

I doubt this will ever happen, but I do hope that someday the Tamagotchi Mixes will get an English release, they're super cute and I love the idea of the babies getting both traits from their parents??

[@towhatdegree]

My first tamagotchi was the the rockstar one which I've since lost but will never forget rip.

[@Angie-me7gi]

Thank you this was awesome! Ive always loved tamagotchis but didnt know that much about them... *goes shopping for a mix*

[@geekyfreakyartist718]

I can't remember what tamagotchi I had as a kid I know it was one of the first kinds out. And I just recently ordered a tamagotchi 4u plus in blue.

[@milkteaful]

those were the exact reactions all my friends had when i bought my new tamagotchi mix on my snapchat story last week LOL but now three of my friends also bought a mix

[@lanoraphillips4298]

This video was super detailed and helpful, thank you for going over some of the gameplay details as well!! I'm doing a redesign project of tamagotchi rn and this video has been super helpful!!

[@AnimeFan6969]

I had the connection v1 in orange, as did some of my classmates around grade 6 and we always connected our tamagotchis and had a good time :) I often got "Kuchipatchi" so whenever I see him I get kinda excited lol

[@muunarexia]

Omg you have an IDL milky !!! So rare and expensive !! Also I really want to see your collection ^^ ! I have 2 plus color, a p's and 3 mix (anniversary, sanrio and dream) I also so yesterday they gonna release a new one in november with some christmas character I'm so exciting !!! Also I want more plus color they are my favorite :)

[@m__6930]

Now I really want to collect tamagotchi's!!!! I feel so bad about all the tamagotchi's that have apps and websites and things you had to connect with that don't exist anymore. I wonder if those in-store stations and things where ever sold off online?

[@GWYNZILLAAA]

Livvvvingg for this video 🙌🏻 I have an angelgotchi but I really want the devil also! Also really would love the mothra. I have a ton of the connection releases. Tamatown was so fun! The most recent one I have bought was the tama-go and I haaaated it. Maybe hate is strong but I stopped buying them after that but I've drooled over the Japan releases and haven't sold my soul for one yet but I know I will! Really excited to buy the tamagotchi mix!

[@mahoupanda2639]

I got so invested in the tamagotchi corner shop DS games, and I am curious - have you ever played them? What's your opinion? :)

[@frankielagoona1]

Growing up in my little closed up city, EVERYONE had a tamagotchi connect, and people would be friends with you based on how good you was at it 😂😂

[@Leedsboi86]

You missed the TamaOtch out which was released in April 1998 in Japan

[@aoeurika88]

I have always thought that Tamagotchi came from the combination of Tamago(egg) and Tomodachi(friend)

[@UltraPoyoColt]

Glad to see a fellow tamagotchi fan! I have several led tamagotchis and 2 Color ones, the pix and ON, which I use regularly. Also, I LOVE YOUR OUTFITS!

[@LittleAmyHe]

My first Tamagotchi was whatever released right before V1 where it was basically the original Tamagotchi with plain color eggshells. I had a purple one and dad threw it and broke it at one point. It was devastating to 10-year-old me, but because he still feels bad about it, he actually paid for my Sanrio M!X! After that, I had at least one of every collection up to V5. I rediscovered Tamagotchi around 2014 when the Ps were (and I guess still are) super popular. I wanted one sooooo badly because they're so pretty and cute! I never got one because they were so expensive to buy, not to mention the prices of the pierces. I just kept putting it off. Then in 2016, I searched Tamagotchi P for fun on KZbin and discovered the M!X had just come out! I didn't like the eggshells, so I kind of put it off. I liked the Anniversary one, but didn't bite the bullet and buy a M!X until the Sanrio one was released. I bought the Sanrio M!X the day of release! XD I still plan on getting the white Anniversary one, maybe a Dream one, and according to the comments there's a Gudetama one coming out??? :o

[@LittleAmyHe]

That TamaTown music shocked me with nostalgia. I also remember playing 2 of the DS games. I also have the Wii board game XD

[@pokepumpkin9376]

OMG when I was 10-12 years old I was a huuuuge Tamagotchi fan! I had like 6 Tamagotchis at the same time: My V1 Tamagotchi, my 2 V4s (one was the limited gold edition), 2 V5s and one Tamagotchi Color (orange). In 2014 I bought a Tamagotchi Friends, and I was like "OMG THEY'RE BACK!! :D" I recently got my V4.5 with the design I always wanted (which I originally wanted back then instead of the gold one) and I'm thinking about getting myself a Music Star (V6) or a newer Tamagotchi. Any recommandations?

[@MerlinPrismriver100]

Tamagotchi Mix sounds great with its genetics play. PF Magic Petz series has genetic play too, even with hexed (modded) breeds

[@Cbear11205]

I have 2 v4 connections, a music star, a (lost) Go, and a 4u, but I'm looking into getting a mix

[@lilygleason9804]

I've literally been binge watching your videos all day!

[@LovelyLor]

OH MY ! Thank you!!! That makes me so happy

[@jacq6873]

Alongside my real ones I came to collect many faux tamagotchis too, by accident. An early glow in the dark one, and even a touchscreen, along with several board games. Unsure if the board games are official or not.

[@Catherinebroski]

It makes me feel so bad when I think back and remember when I got my tamagotchi and the battery died so I THREW IT AWAY . I WOULD DO ANYTHING to some how find the same one again :'(

[@Catherinebroski]

I think as a kid I had a tamagotchi connection :)

[@sarahkate9060]

Catherine B my heart broke a little just hearing that I would say "how dare you" as I imagine a tamagotchi buried in a landfill but I know you didn't know better

[@andreazahuranec9850]

I remeber I received a gold tamagotchi for Christmas 1997, 9th grade. It was so cool back then. .......well now I feel old.

[@Trippy_Space_Bunny]

If you haven't heard, we're supposedly getting angel and devil/monster Uni this year as well as a Sanrio one. I'm definitely going to get the angel one.

[@EllenorFish]

I played the tamogotchi connection DS games as a kiddo. I looooved them I actually rebought the first once recetly for nostalgia purposes alone...lol. My mom didn't like to get us the actual tamogotchi's for some reason. She probably thought we'd lose them too easily or something.

[@magicmoonart]

I've been in love with tamagotchis since I was very young but they weren't these. They were virtual pets but weren't the brand tamagotchi, just cyberpets as we used to call them. It was my grandad who used to call them tamagotchis, so he must have known more than me back then!

[@majinburaisu9596]

I got a dinosaur one as a kid and I swear it was branded tamagotchi but I can’t find it anywhere.

[@SpookyDeerArt]

i wanted to play tamatown so much!! i got the tree and set it up on my slow computer but... no internet ffff

[@allisarcadia]

OMFGODS SO READYYYY!

[@DKCGamerGirl]

Great video! I'm mostly familiar with the original '90s versions, since that was my era, so this video helped me learn about some of the releases since then. :) Ocean was released in North America (I have the blue bubbles shell English one), but it didn't sell as well in the US (I think, as you say, due to the by then fading popularity of the original Tama era and also because of how difficult they are to raise), so was only available for a short time, which is why they are so rare and valuable now. They sold much longer in Japan. Side note: I love the style you having going on with the green hair and bow. Most people don't pull off green hair very well, but it actully looks very good on you. And I love those earnings!

[@alextheclown2497]

i love tamagotchis so much :D i found 2 tamagothis in a garage saleit wqs a original one (p1) and a tamagotchi connection one (v4) and and when j sall them i INSTANTLY granned them the sales person had more but they could not find them -3- so dang it i still have the v4 one but i cant open the p1 one ;(

Im 12 and i have been asking my mom for a tomogotchi I remember when i was about 6 i got one in a happy meal I also love your fashion style

[@chelsiemalfoy]

My mom got one in the late 90s. And then my older brother got one. But for some reason I wasn't allowed one. And then I think they stopped being popular for awhile.

The Japanese ones are cute but a lot of them are in a different language (which I don’t speak) I’m new to tamagotchi so far I just have the little 20 anniversary and I have a tamagotchi friends on the way! (I ordered it online) I went with regular friends because you can pause it and I like the characters and the reviews said it was good for tamagotchi new bees
