I hate these things, and even though my mum and dad plagued me with them when I was a child because we used to go on long driving trips, I still found them boring and really repetitive. The latest version of this is Digimon and battling animals, where you train them like tamagotchis then fight them, nice huh?
Well no, they're so simple and don't have much imagination, I don't think they take long to make, Why are they so popular?

Interactive, thats one of my favourite words, Nintendo have done some good work on this, but it seems to be pointed at Pokemon! Transfer pak and Pikachu 2! sheesh.

I think tamogotchis were a good idea, but the craze went out and people were lead to other things, but now they have started to bring them back, I have grown up and don't like them.

I had about 3 tamagotchis, 2 rip offs (baby dinosaur(crap) + baby frog (crap) and one human baby, and although it never fully grew up it was my favourite, but it cried a lot.
I remeber when they were banned from my school because they kept on beeping through our classes and people couldn't stop feeding them! argh! a teachers nightmare, that and being chased by evil monsters.

Tamagotchi was genius! Growing your cool little monster or animal and then play with them. Then they made ones where you could battle and they were funny.

I actually used to like these things.

You could give them loads of injections then give them loads of food so they cr@ped all over the place. Lovely!

lol :)

The color on the tamagotchi (not the screen itself) rubbed off after a while! Although they were only Ł10, so it doesn't suprise me....
