Tamagotchi for Game Boy Color

Pros: Can raise 3 Tamas at once, can turn it off at anytime and play later
Cons: Wasn't made for color game boy :-)

The craze came and went a few years ago. Tamagotchi, created by Bandai Japan (original idea by Akai Mata), which exploded in popularity spread like wild fire to the US and other countries.

In my review I'll touch a bit on the Virtual Pet as...

Pros: teach kids some responsibility, cute, small/portable, interactive
Cons: hard to find batteries for, may distract children in school

I purchased my first tamagotchi baby in seventh grade. They were cute! I couldn't resist. Even as a highschooler now, I still admit that they're adorable. Tamagotchis are little keychains with an LED display of a "creature" (i'm not sure what...

Pros: cute, interactive
Cons: expensive, nowhere near as convenient as keychain version

Tamagotchi...

Pros: None I can think of.
Cons: Annoying, games are not fun, Tamagotchis are hard to raise, even if caring for one.

Tamagotchi pets were really cool and in this game they're not. You can care for three of them at a time, but every one of them will wine and cry forever. You can never please them. Also, the Tamagotchi sport games are boring and hard and they will always die somehow. STAY AWAY FROM THIS GAME! Its not worth your money.
