Tamagotchi & Virtual Pet Collection 2021

[@nono-gw7qm]

watching other adults who are as enthusiastic about their virtual pets as i am makes me feel less like a weirdo. the pix is really marketed towards kids. great video

[@JillGrygas]

Thank you! We're all weirdos together! :D

yeah, its funny to see reviews talking about how our kids gonna use the functions of a specific tama when we all know that they are for adults. :D

[@blackpink._.blinkeu384]

Oh my goshhh I love the Gudetama case Jill!

[@JillGrygas]

I do toooooooo!

[@_The_Worst_]

This is a pretty super frickin'🔥dope collection, Jill...🤘🏼💯✔️ I enjoyed watching you showcasing your collection...❤️

[@JillGrygas]

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@completetechheads]

Just bought my dream Tamagotchi, it's a V3 with the green snake pattern! Can't wait for it to arrive and get that sweet hit of nostalgia haha i had a few as a kid but not sure what happened to them :( Might have to start a little collection of my own, great video! :)

[@JillGrygas]

My friend was looking at buying that one! I hope it gives you all those nostalgia feels!

[@completetechheads]

@@JillGrygas Got mine in the UK so hopefully i didn't snipe it from your friend lol! "interestingly" i noticed the US version says "Tamagotchi connection" above the screen while the EU version just says "Tamagotchi", also i think the buttons are slightly different colors :P Makes me wonder what other subtle variations there are :P

[@JillGrygas]

@@completetechheads Haha no worries my friend hasn't tried to purchase one yet. She was looking at it a few weeks ago. Its amazing how different the EU and US versions of Tamagotchis are!

I just got the original Tamagotchi Gen 1 for Christmas of 2022 and thenI got in the mail today I got the Tamagotchi balloon party pix and I was just thinking about getting some more a little later and I like the pix because it’s a little bigger and the screen size is amazing and the picture is beautiful

[@JillGrygas]

The Pix is honestly the best you can get right now, IMO. The screen is so nice. The old screens on the Tamagotchi ON would scratch so easily and the animation lagged a bit.

[@khasinan]

Hello Jill, Great video ☺️ I have two Ons (wonder garden and magical). The red Sanrio Meets, the white Hello Kitty nano and the English Gudetama. I also just pre-ordered the mint green Tamagotchi Smart. I’d like to learn more about the Twisted Wonderland. Cheers

[@JillGrygas]

Thank you! That's a nice collection! I will have a video up about the Twisted Wonderland at some point. This month I plan to focus on the Smart since it's coming out so soon!!

[@Marxnchill]

I started getting obsessed around 2018 as well! Probably spurred on by seeing them in the store again.

[@JillGrygas]

It was a good time to get back into it. The Tamagotchi brand has just exploded since!

[@anisuoo9322]

I know I’m very late, but thank you so much for your content! Please don’t ever quit! New subscriber!

[@JillGrygas]

Thank you for the subscription!

[@southerndolllady]

Hi! New subscriber here! I'm in my forties and definitely remember the huge Tamagotchi craze in the late 90s! I really wanted one but my Mom got me the compukitty gigapet instead (they were all the same to her). I am a gamer and anime/manga enthusiast and saw someone talking about Tamagotchis in one of my Nintendo groups...and I couldn't believe they never went away!!! I did some research, watched some videos, subscribed to your channel and now I have a detailed list of all the Tamagotchis that I want to collect that I missed out on, as well as have a few on the way for my daughter and I to play together. This is my favorite video of yours, and I can't wait to learn and explore more about Tamagotchi with you. Btw...gigapets are really fun (I loved mine)...and they rereleased a compukitty one for preorder for this month...I'm definitely planning on getting it for nostalgia's sake. You just weren't a "cool kid" if you didn't have the actual Tamagotchi back then, lol. Looking forward to seeing more content from you... especially once the Pix Party releases!!!

[@JillGrygas]

Hi! Thank you SO much for subscribing! I'm so happy to have you here :) I was hoping to find more 30/40 year olds to discuss tamagotchis and video games with! Which Tamagotchis are you going to start your collection with? I'm dying to know! I don't talk about it much on this channel but I have started to collect GigaPets too! I saw the compukitty is coming back and was really excited, but the preorders weren't up when I saw the news. Are they available now? I'm going to have to look. My friend has the Sabrina kitty from the 90's and I'm wondering if the magic cat is going to be like that one. I can't wait to get my hands on this! Thank you so much for your comment I love chatting about this stuff :D

[@southerndolllady]

@@JillGrygas yes... it's available for preorder now last I checked. I just received the nano hello kitty and a mini yesterday...we preordered the Pix Party (both designs) and two of the originals being released this month. You should have heard my excitement when I realized that they are still releasing PREORDERS for Tamagotchis!!! Lol... that's when I knew that I had no choice but to get into this hobby. I am really sad that the ON is losing the app and future support because they look like sooo much fun...but I still plan on getting one. I don't have too much interest in any of the Japan exclusive releases...yet lol. The Smart looks soooo cool but I'm really hoping they'll come out with a US/English version for us. They're really pushing the Pix for us here in the States. I plan on getting several of the gigapets and Digimon...they have new Digimon up for preorders as well. I've been on a virtual pet high for the past few weeks...and my poor switch has been neglected a bit because of it. Thank you again for replying and I'm always open to chatting about any of this stuff!!! I feel like I'm still such a newbie though because like I said... I had no IDEA this stuff was still around and still so amazingly popular!!!

[@ossumopossum]

Yooo, thx for outright calling this a hobby. I feel like vpets may be a rush of nostalgia for most ppl, but then there are those ppl who ran a pet on and off over the years fondly. as a 30-something in the states who didnt know that these things were still in production until very recently, i sorta jumped in as well. I love these collection videos from longtime collectors. I only have one of my original collection, but it is still working and has a mostly visible lcd (gigapet onigiri trex 97') Can anyone shine some light on the gigapets pixie and why its resolution and gameplay arent getting praised?? I havent seen a review pointing out the removal of the seconds digits on the clock screen of the GigaPets relaunch devices, perhaps its a fringe use case, but tamagatchi wins for calculating bpm/heartrate/rpm/flowrate or any sample/time measurement. Just ordered my first digimon 🤞 lets gooo

[@PhoenIXPhantasies]

A tip for the Tamagotchi Friends: Take out the plastic lens on the front. This makes them way easier to see. I take it you carry them in cases, so it's not needed that much. It made me like mine a bit more now that it was way easier to see. I also swapped their faceplates and now they look much cuter, lol. They are easy to open up and put back together! ♡

[@JillGrygas]

Love the tip! Thank you for suggesting!

[@nono-gw7qm]

You can do this?? Wish I had known that when it first came out and I ran it for months hahahaha

[@bottega4638]

Ahhhh (screams) I remembered now I founded your channel times the first lockdown but I had another account on KZbin. I've missed this video with your wonderful collection. I was really curious about it 😁 my favorites are the mix Sanrio and Wonder Garden because I love Hello Kitty and Alice in Wonderland. Thanks for sharing it with us 💖 Edit: OMG the Tamagotchi Wonderland in this black and gold box Wow 😍 I will Google it right now

[@JillGrygas]

Hi BOTTEGA! I'm so glad you found this video. Did you ever comment on your previous account? I still need to make a video with that Twisted Wonderland Tamagotchi! Thank you so much for the comment!

[@bottega4638]

@@JillGrygas It's a pleaser. 😊Yes, I did, my other account was "Tô Bélgica" but I don't have this account anymore. Maybe you will not remember but I've commented that you should be my English teacher coz I love your accent 😍 Edit: yes, please do a video with the Twisted Tamagotchi 🤩

[@JillGrygas]

@@bottega4638 I remember your other account! Thank you for the support I really appreciate it. :)

[@bottega4638]

@@JillGrygas The pleasure is mine 🤩

finally a tama collector with a digivice! :>

[@JillGrygas]

Is that rare? 😅 You should check out BentoBuff here on KZbin. She also has digimon and Tamagtochi videos.

[@chinabluewho]

This might be my go to Xmas gifts for the kiddos.

[@JillGrygas]

A virtual pet is a great Christmas gift for the kids!!

[@akiarwg]

I only have 3. The Purple Pix, an On and a digimon

[@JillGrygas]

That’s a nice collection!

[@spaceyrat]

I had them as a kid but don't have any now. I am hoping to get a Pix Party soon.

[@JillGrygas]

Which version are you planning to get?

[@jubug2213]

Love them. They are all so cute.

[@JillGrygas]

Thank you! I love them all too!

[@kelliebaker2102]

I love tamagotchi

[@ziyal0vee725]

I feel like the tamagotchi pix goes through batteries quick

[@JillGrygas]

Yes it does faster than any other Tamagotchi. I have a video with tips on how to get them to last longer :)

[@CabbagePatch8090]

I love Tamagotchi as well. I have sooo many of them. I am thinking about starting a Digimon. So. What would you say about them? Are they as enjoyable as the Tamagotchi? What about the Digimon Msart watch? Is it similar to the tamagotchi smart. I have a smart and alot of cards for it. My favorite Tamas are the meets and the v3 lol

[@JillGrygas]

I have a few videos around my channel about digimon. I haven't done a ton of videos, but I personally love them. The Digimon Vital Hero/Bracelet are very different from the Smart.

"wait for the prices to go down"... aint gonna happen... :,,D

[@JillGrygas]

We can keep hoping! 😅

[@jubug2213]

You the best

[@JillGrygas]

You're the best!!

[@KittyGirl9903]

I have the first one you showed

[@JillGrygas]

What do you think of it?

[@khiclark31]

How do you store your collection?

[@JillGrygas]

I don’t have the best systems yet for storage but I do a few things. I have bins for things I don’t want exposed to light and dust. Some things I like to look at do those are on a shelf in my office. I also have a little cabinet with a glass door to display things too but I haven’t fully set that up yet.

[@JuliaW-hw9nw]

Hi,sorry to bother you,how can you keep them all alive? I thought it was hard to keep one Alive so Um please can you do a video or text back to me? 🙏 thank you ps i subscribed

[@JillGrygas]

Hi! I'm sorry I missed your comment for some reason it was flagged as possible spam! I usually do not run more than one or two at a time because they are hard to keep alive. What I showed you here in my video is my collection, but I definitely do not run them all at the same time! That would be a disaster! :)
