I was so happy to watch this until you cut right through the package.

[lolohughes]

I love how he just says "wow it even has the original packaging" and then cuts right threw it

[Felix-nwod]

[gluv]

"Comes in original packaging" whilst cutting through

[TicTaxTT]

why did you cut the package like that that hurt my soul

[RetroDodo]

My god used to spent so much of my childhood playing this. Its like a pet but virtual pet. But when he died I was crying so much... Damn nostalgia hit me

[TheFlyingVyse]

Geeeez, that moment you called Alexa to set a timer on 4 minutes cracked me up! Ironically streaming this to see two 'technologies' from two different era face each, one helping the nostalgic owner to hatch a damn pixelated egg from 1997 while I get nastolgic vibes as if I'm hatching it myself! That short giggle already was worth the comment, Thanks for the nice video.

the very first thing i saved up for as a kid and paid for with my own money took me nearly 4 months and then accidentally left it in my shorts on holiday a week later and went in the sea with it i was gutted

This takes me back. I was obsessed with my tamagotchi when I was a kid, and I wanted to take it everywhere with me, but they were banned at my school (along with Pokemon cards and basically any other 90's toy), and so my mum had to feed mine while I was at school. Needless to say, she was happy once I grew out of it 😭

[Simicrop]

Holy hell, watching him eat that hamburger hit me with more nostalgia thank I expected even after seeking out this video.

I found an original black tamagotchi from 1997 at a yard sale last weekend with the tag still in it (but out of packaging) for only 50 cents! I am taking care of it now after all this time. :D

the blob is the default infant. Depending on how well you take care of it, the cuter it'll be when it grows up. When you play a game with it, it shows you a number between 1 and 9. A second number is hidden. You have to guess whether the hidden number is higher or if the shown number is higher. Keep it up, I'm anxious to see how well you do. Also, there is an official Tamagotchi app by Bandai that is basically the same thing. Lastly, that last icon you questioned is the scolding icon. You can yell at it when it doesn't listen to you. For example, you know it's hungry, but it won't eat. Scold it and then the discipline meter should go up and then it will probably eat.

oh yeah, one more thing. As a baby it'll require a lot of attention. It'll require less attention later, but then it'll go back to needing more attention as it ages and gets close to death.

"what is that, a chicken nugget? A blob?" LMAO I laughed!

[beep]

This video flooded me with forgotten, nostalgic memories of playing with this at school...

[HandCraftedDIY]

I know to most people born in 2000’s and up this might seem like a long time ago but to anyone who’s lived these eras. It really doesn’t feel that long ago at all

[kingd]

That totally takes me back to my child hood. good bit of nostalgia there. Cheers

Thanks for having my Alexa set a 4 minute timer. Sincerely, every Echo owner who watched this video.

Imagine they had a backlit mod for the tamagochi

[Booli......]

I remember when my moms friend brought one for a gift for me it will always hold a special place in my heart
