The DEFINITIVE Original Tamagotchi (P1 & P2, 1997) Care Guide

[@beckbecca8902]

I don’t understand why this doesn’t have more views, I had a tamagotchi in the 90s and just got one this year for Christmas, this video helped refresh my memory, now I’m determined to get the secret character!

[@copyer9088]

You think that’s bad I used to think that skull was part of the tamagotchi house it was a light and all the poo at the side was the walls of the house. Then I woke up and saw that space ship and didn’t know realise what had happened.

As someone who's never had a tamagotchi and have recently just gotten one, I can now say I finally understand on how to take care of my new tamagotchi pet/friend.

[@DKCGamerGirl]

As someone who had the original Tamas back in the day, I love this video! We used to get in trouble for having them beeping in class, but we would just mute them so the teachers couldn't hear and take care of them under the desk. Want to point out that the baby Tamas are not the fastest at loosing hearts. When an adult Tama gets old it starts loosing hearts more often until its around 25 or so and then they loose hearts every minute or less, until its impossible to keep them alive any longer.

[@WhosHatch]

Oh yes! I feel silly for not mentioning that in the video, love getting corrections like this as it really makes me appreciate this little community, glad you enjoyed the video :D

[@puertoriconnect4611]

Yes! I had fun with my Tamagotchi as a kid but there were so many aspects I never truly understood. Great video and I love your animations.

[@zambachoo]

Yeah I’m pretty sure as a kid I didn’t get the game because I was clueless on this part.

[@VileStorms]

In 2005, I remember kids leaving them in their lockers and feeding them at lunch and on breaks. I wasn't allowed to have one, so now I have become obsessed in adulthood.

[@NonJohns]

What a vibe I have a similarish feeling, I was afraid of liking cartoons because I didn't want to seem childish but like nothing wrong with wanting to have fun

[@cfrost87]

I had one as a kid and now 20 some years later want to get another one.

[@toastgoats7545]

I'm honestly amazed with how high the production value is on these videos, despite not having that many views! Please keep making videos! I guarantee your channel will blow up, the editing is just REALLY charming

[@maybepolly_]

This is exactly what I needed! I just got my first tamagotchi, a gen 2 rerelease, and had no idea about the mechanics other than basic care. You explain everything so nicely! Subscribed 😊

[@Ardhamon5000]

I love the absolutely adorable artwork here! This is nicely done.

[@iloklok42]

Your guides are so well structured and adorable, love your animations and sounds!! Very fun to watch

[@13deathKISS]

Bless you so much for making this video! My coworker bought Tamagotchis in our department and I was so confused on what to do. I've always wanted one as a kid, but I was so paranoid and wasn't sure what to do. Thank you so much for making this video and informing people about Tamagotchis!

[@trevorflaps]

This video is almost 2 years old, so this might have already been said, but the "Left/Right" game isn't entirely random. You can hammer the left button at a constant rate after starting the game and the Tamagotchi will usually also go left. This also has the benefit of skipping the celebration/loss screen after each guess - continue pressing the left button all through any screen during the game. It might take a few tries to get the mashing timing right. I guess the Tamagotchi starts on left and then goes right after a fraction of a second before flipping back so that's why this works? Anyway, thought I'd drop a comment to share in case it hadn't been said before. Nice video!

[@PuffyRainbowCloud]

Fascinating! Now that we have access to the ROMs it would be interesting for someone explore that more in-depth.

[@angellynette8258]

I had my 1st Tama in 1997 and could never keep it alive. I’ve recently got a Tama Uni and Connection, but I think I may pick up the Tamagotchi gen2 for nostalgic reasons and see if I can keep it alive this time around. Thank you for the video.

[@Gadgeteer22]

@20:45 The commands for the number game on the P2 version are backwards. A is actually to guess lower and B is to guess higher. Other than that, this video has been very helpful. So far, it's the best guide I have found. I love the Tamagotchi background and animations!

[@scrungomcdungo]

This vid is amazing!! i just started up my P1&P2 again, and wanted to see if i could find any tamagotchi related content, and this was a pleasant surprise!! the little audio cues are so freaking cool & i love your art as well!

this has easily been, by far, the most helpful & informative video I’ve yet to see on pretty much anything you’d need to know about operating//caring for a new tamagotchi!!! 👾☺️👍🏻 I’m 29🧓🏻♿️👀😭😅; & I shamelessly have told everyone how thoroughly excited I am for the nostalgia & happiness my new Tama 👾 I ordered a few days ago, is going to bring me. I just opened it & my hubby (38) is chuckling at me bc I’m so stoked on it. like listen, I was born in feb of ‘93 (almost ‘92), so this was a staple toy for my generation as a kid. I’m just shy of 30 & I still adore cutesy “toys” like this, plushies🧸, Pokémon, pound puppies🐶 , beanie babies, vhs tapes (yes, I still own & enjoy a VHS player vhs📼 , & a regular ‘ol DVD player📀 …lol), & so many more truly wonderful items we were blessed with in the 90’s. I will never give up the silly little things that make my heart happy❣️🥹🤙🏼 ✨Anyway; super informative, easy to follow, well put together, & fun//cute video!! 👍🏻 thanks so much. 😌

[@geraltofrivia4651]

Commenting because youtube algorithm needs to start recommending this

[@metapod]

While this is very cute, funny, and thorough, there are some wrong informations in here. For example, not all adults minimum weight is 30. Sickly Nyorotchi's minimum weight is as low as 10. Maskutchi will always evolve into Bill/Oyajitchi as long as it lives to age 10 and was brought up with 0 discipline (regardless of how you care for it). Kuchipatchi has the same requirement as Mametchi in that the teenager must have come from a child with 75-100% discipline. Tamatchi can evolve into Tarakotchi if there are more than 2 care mistakes and discipline is 0-50%. Various other small mistakes and missing details in the video as well. Not bashing the video, I give it a like and will share it around, but just a note to people watching. I've been running 6 pets for months now to test and confirm the inner workings.

My childhood bff had an angelgotchi, so jealousss. I love them still to this day. Nostalgic moments I'll treasure of back in the 90s at toys r us or Walmart, or on spring break finally getting some quality time with my tamagotchi at grandmas n grandpas. I want this new one .. might cave and get it. So cute!
