Interestingly, seeing this made me Google Tamagotchi, thinking my daughter might like an old school Tamagotchi. Apparently, a new “Tamagotchi Pix”[0] product is releasing July 1st. It’s $60 and has a camera for some reason.

Was the original Tamagotchi only marketed towards girls? It looks like the new one will be available only in purple and pink.

They've got blue and green as well on that website. $60 and it's got a camera though? Hell no.

Blue and green are right under those colors.

Ah the Amazon US page is only showing the preorders for Pink and Purple.

Right, my mistake, I looked at the Amazon page which has preorders for pink and purple, but didn’t want to link that so I instead linked to the official page.

Try the Tamagotchi On instead, which that site calls the “original.” It’s not, but it looks like it’s better for you. See: https://tamaon.tamagotchi.com/products/

Edit: I also see the "original" for $20 on Amazon, which looks like it's actually the original? See: https://smile.amazon.com/Tamagotchi-42873-Original-Sky/dp/B0...

other than a curious find for anthropologists in 200 years when these plastic door stops are exhumed, i fail to see anything endearing about burying a collection of batteries, lead, and plastic into the earth to contaminate groundwater.

IIRC, the boy version was Digimon. Basically the same toy, but you could battle them.

This is so nostalgic. As a child, my Tamagotchi felt like a real pet to me, and it really was heart wrenching when they passed away.
