Tamagotchi

Ok, this may be a little weird. I am 26 years old. An adult. And, I now own a Tamagotchi. Yep. As a child, I grew up with Tamagotchi's, Gigipets, and all the like. I was actually pretty obsessed with them, I probably had at least 10 on a single keyring, and spent all day taking care of each of them. I don't really remember what happened to them, or where they went to, but a few weeks ago, I was thinking about them again. And sadly, I kept thinking about them more and more. So I bought one.



It's pink, I love it. It's silly to admit, but I think this is the most amusing thing ever. I can sit and feed it, check on it, play with it, for hours on end, just as I did as a child. I wonder if I just never grew up? Hah. But seriously, the changes that Tamagotchi has been through is crazy. I remember them being small, taking little circular batteries, and the screen just being black and white. Now, its bigger than a large egg, you're able to play online with your Tamagotchi, it has interchangeable characters and face plates, you can play with friends, and now, they take 2 AAA batteries (I mean, really?).



Mine came with a Kuchipatchi character, which includes like a "catch the coin" type game, which is pretty amusing.
