The fake one also can evolve. You have to buy the heart in the shop and then go to the top right heart and hit the yin yang to meditate. It can sleep if you leave it alone for 15 minutes. The time then goes wack and when you check it it shows 2 spinning clocks
Mahvelous 21 im looking for the codes to the treasure. I Just got this tamagotchi and theres a lot of things i dont know about it. Thanks for the info about evolving i would have never figured that out by myself
I wouldn't really call that evolving it just changes you character to something else that you could have chose before and wastes like 500-800 gold. The bear in the shop does the same thing. Also the codes are anything that equals out to 12.. so 444, 336 literally anything that ends up adding together to be 12
I’m guessing your off brand tamagotchi didn’t come with instructions because when it is “behind the computer screen” mine said I sent it to school and the thing after that is to connect with another tamagotchi. The star shows your “tamagotchi” telling you how good your taking care of it. The key is you have to guess a 2 digit code to unlock something and the chest is to see what you have bought
My mother wouldn't give me a real tamagotchi even if I wanted because she always said if it dies you will become too attached but the Chinese knockoff is perfect for me so that I can play tamagotchi without having to cry that he /she died.
I actually dont care about how fake this is. The only thing i wanted is having a pet and what i fear of this is maybe these things actually break and discolor very easily
Lmao thanks for the video. I saw these things on an ad on IG and knew something was off when I saw the price tag. Hahaha "mining for bitcoin". Now Ima go look for a real one. Cheers.
If ur the type of person thats busy or cant have fully attention to the tamagotchi the fake one is kinda good because it cant die and if you dont even clean the shit its ok so if you have the freen time u feed it and if u dont feed it it will not die anyways
My mom bought me a tamagotchi so I don’t keep using my phone and it’s really fun to play with I don’t even care if it’s fake or not as long as I have fun🙃✌️
@@rathisonani9773 you have to buy something from the shop which is 500 or more gold then go to the heart in the far right top corner and the ying yang is the third one down. Then you use your item from the shop and all it does is change your character randomly to one of the ones you could have chose in the beginning
6:39 , that one is like evolving, i tried it before and my fake tamagotchi (the only tamagotchi i have) turned to a bunny Edit : you can't do it because you have to take care of your fake tamagotchi first till it turns like 8 year or 10
They do. Bandai has re-released the p1 and p2 tamas that were sold in 1996-97. The mini was released in 2017, but it is a simplified version with no icons or game. You just feed it and clean up poop. It does have a clock though, and does sleep (you have to turn its light off).
Sorry if im not correct but .... My mom said when she was small she used to get the keychain ones soi think the keychain ones are the original :) as you see the keychain has less color and on one "real" has alot of color :/
I can't find it anywhere sadly. The one I used was called Koidachi. This reddit page lists an alternative called hatchi amp.reddit.com/r/pebble/comments/4outgf/tamagotchi_for_pebble/
Great video, but it could have been a little more informative, if you had explained how one could spot a fake one from an original one, when buying one of those online. Keep up the great work none the less. ♥
@@RetroGameCouch I tried that, it still didn’t work :/ It seemed very old anyway- some of the letters were worn off, and my mom’s coworker gave it to me sooo
@@RetroGameCouch i didn’t realize there was one, but I noticed that the batteries were in backwards and turned it on My chicken, joy, has eaten 12 loaves of bread
Totally_ Toads How do you make it turn off? Can you turn off the sound? Does it make sound? And finally how can you reset it if you unable the reset button ? Thanks for replying ^_^ (sorry for all these questions)
I would avoid buying these but sadly both my mum and dad have bought me about 4 or 5 of these knock offs (not clones) They are called knock offs or rip offs btw. All 5 of my newest tamas are exactly like this one and can be spotted a mile off! My mum keeps buying them from online and keeps getting the same ones and not proper real tamagotchis and I was so disappointed :/ I have a video of them if you'd care to take a look at it. It was a video of my very first knock offs like this one, given to me by my dad for christmas. th-cam.com/video/N0DykytrLqE/w-d-xo.html
Remember when these things weren't $100?
xDD
My thought also.. i come to this video because of $1 tamagotchi review, not $1 fake and real tamagotchi comparisson.. 😥😥
Sorry. But I don't control the prices of Tamagotchi s
Omg ikr
Were they cheaper or more expensive?

Thank youuu
Aaroni Peperoni for the key code put in any numbers that add up to 12. ie, 444, 246, 084 are all codes you can use
how can you turn 2 spinning clocks back to normal? pls help me

I like how he just up and front says ‘shit’ without beating around the bush lmao 🤣
That's weird, i had a clone tamagotchi back in the days, and it evolved, slept, and didn't have that reset button. Good vid.
+PvtMadnage I guess better close es do exist then.
If by back in the day you mean during the 90s then yeah there was still very good clones going around at the time.
I have a good ish clone and got mine from the early 2000s. I actually just started playing with it again 2 days ago.
Awesome!
Me2
Can't expect much for 20 cents. Picturing them all in landfill. "But we must save the planet"....
I won the fake version on a arcade game but it still good and its fun
Can you turn the volume off when using the fake one?
Golden Hoops nope
My mother wouldn't give me a real tamagotchi even if I wanted because she always said if it dies you will become too attached but the Chinese knockoff is perfect for me so that I can play tamagotchi without having to cry that he /she died.
I had one too
Where we can buy that tamagotchi watch?
Tamagotchi ON is worth its price.
Remember when Tamagotchi had a cartoon with minute-long episodes so cute it made you laugh? 2013 was the days.
When u drop it it's like Ur dropping a loin from a very high hight and it dies and resets
How did you get tamagotchi on your pebble!? I need this!!!
I've seen this fake version around recently!
Yes, they're still available.
In my dollar store is came with a band but it was 6 DOLLARS nuuuu
@@lovechuu222 yeah but the original is 100$
I actually dont care about how fake this is. The only thing i wanted is having a pet and what i fear of this is maybe these things actually break and discolor very easily
Drop it from more then 5cm and it resets. Watch the video :)
RetroGameCouch if you drop your dog it will be sad also
True. But I don't have a dog.
ohhhhh the era of tamagotchi and ps one, wonderful memories !
5:14 “to clean up the shit” lol
I was looking forward to getting mine from wish until I watched this video
And the instructions are completely different from the icons on the screen. Haha
I hate to admit that I paid more than $1 for this ... 😑
+Laura Kelly how much did you pay?
Well I bought it in a shop in Ottawa and I paid ............ 10 dollars .... 😝 *cries*
I paid €10 for it and it sucks
Get a real one. They are awesome.
I paid 2 euros
i wonder how many tamagotchis fell in the shitter
He can evolve
Love the vid 😊❤
I cant close the falr one can you help me pls :"(
Anyone found a solution so that it does not reset when you drop it??
Lmao thanks for the video. I saw these things on an ad on IG and knew something was off when I saw the price tag. Hahaha "mining for bitcoin". Now Ima go look for a real one. Cheers.
Good luck, the real ones are a lot of fun.
The real ones are much better.
Sadly I have ordered it. I had no idea it was fake. :(
Hilarious review, very nice 👍
Was all about the Digimon digivices I remember everyone either had one of those or a tamagotchi in elementary school
Digimon is fine. My wife has a few of those too.
Shit I just ordered that knock off one out of nostalgia and it was 3 dollars. Waiting for it to arrive.
where I can find the tamagochi youre playing on your smatch watch
I think it was called takoshi.
What’s is blue one called? Can u send me link. Can’t find the blue on everywhere plz
Tamagotchi v3 Sky blue
Dose anyone know if digimon sprites are used in it because I want one just for them because the actual ones are 100$ to 300$ now
And the fact that they don’t die is a plus to me
The one I tested in this video as you can see does not use the original tamagotchi sprites.
Cool. A new vid.
Lol my mom had a tamagotchi when she was my age.
The star indicate how satisfied the pet is
I have a whole instruction of it and it seem easy but i do have to say it does get boring for a while
Other people : *talking about other stuff*
Me: YO ANYA IS THAT U??
(the kid that moves around)
Though the v3 has the ‘user name’ feature, the v1 or 2 doesn’t have it.
If ur the type of person thats busy or cant have fully attention to the tamagotchi the fake one is kinda good because it cant die and if you dont even clean the shit its ok so if you have the freen time u feed it and if u dont feed it it will not die anyways
How cut sound ?
2:09 real tamagotchi: yeah ima take a shit while this guy talks about the fake
Your original Tamagotchi have such a pretty painting ^^
Also v3 is my favorite version
Thank you. And I agree.
I prefer the v4 over the v3 :)
i want a tamagotchi conectoin so bad
The ocean is really hard to take care of that's why I want one but thd fake one I also had
My mom bought me a tamagotchi so I don’t keep using my phone and it’s really fun to play with I don’t even care if it’s fake or not as long as I have fun🙃✌️
Whatever
Thanks
0:39 link?
can the fake one connect with friend? can you made a video about the tutoriol? im from malaysia anud im your new subcriber❤❤
No, they can not connect.
@@RetroGameCouch oh thank you❤️❤️
I have a fake one. _. I think they are fun
I told my parents to order a knock-off tamagotchi cuz i really want one and i never knew it is a knock-off, so i agree with you
@@tapisarielb3696 samee
Cool vid
Thanks.
Where u get the blue one
Picked it up locally. But the real ones should be on ebay as well. Usually from Japan and around 20-30€
How to purchase
Search for the word tamagotchi on eBay
That tamogachi doe's evolve when you go to the ying and yang screen if you're lucky enough when you interact with it it evolve's and it sleep's
JustAri pls tell me how to go to the ring and yang screen
@@rathisonani9773 you have to buy something from the shop which is 500 or more gold then go to the heart in the far right top corner and the ying yang is the third one down.

The real onemis Minecraft...
The game is the baseball and ball one, there is 2 games, it is really fun
Where do u buy this
Fake or real? Ebay, just search for Tamagotchi. Cheap is fake.
The code fot the key is 444 i think. It was right to me
6:39 , that one is like evolving, i tried it before and my fake tamagotchi (the only tamagotchi i have) turned to a bunny
Edit : you can't do it because you have to take care of your fake tamagotchi first till it turns like 8 year or 10
They should start selling them again
They do. Bandai has re-released the p1 and p2 tamas that were sold in 1996-97. The mini was released in 2017, but it is a simplified version with no icons or game. You just feed it and clean up poop. It does have a clock though, and does sleep (you have to turn its light off).
Thay do
They areeee and have beeeen dudeee
Tbh you forgot to put the link for the app on you PEBEL
Sadly it has disappeared from the internet. 😔
Sorry if im not correct but .... My mom said when she was small she used to get the keychain ones soi think the keychain ones are the original :) as you see the keychain has less color and on one "real" has alot of color :/
They are all Keychain toys. Trust me, watch my entire video.
Pfft you must be like 7 because they came out in like 1996 or 1997 😂
did you know the orange fake one
WILL NEVER DIE YESs! I have one ok bye
What use does nursering a pet have when your actions have no consequences?
I got some for all my friends D;
oof
I don’t really care if it’s not the real one because it’s still works 😂 lol
I actually would like this cause it wouldn't be sad when it dies
Nor will it be challenging to raise.
@@RetroGameCouchyeah good point
RetroGameCouch could you please drop the link for the watch app ? 🙏🏼
@@tobiasminaj4127 Try searching for it or comment it so he can see it
I can't find it anywhere sadly. The one I used was called Koidachi. This reddit page lists an alternative called hatchi amp.reddit.com/r/pebble/comments/4outgf/tamagotchi_for_pebble/
There is everything, sound button screen. They just drop an algorithme full of shit.
Uh oh I just bought a $1 one on ebay 😨😨😨
Its okay lol i have the 3$ one.. its fake but idc! I love them
Lol it arrived yesterday and it's actually pretty cool I love it.😀😀😀😀😀
logan Kelly Me too!
When tamas have 4 buttons on the front you KNOW its a fake.
I have one of the fakes
2:39 , mines don't😃
Great video, but it could have been a little more informative, if you had explained how one could spot a fake one from an original one, when buying one of those online. Keep up the great work none the less. ♥
+SilverCobra the only way is the absurd low price.
As mentioned in the video, the original has 3 buttons and the fake one has 4 buttons
+puntje013 yes, plus they're produced in China.
I had one I was the worst one ever so I switched to three real ones and a digimon
are you kiddin me i littally got the fake one
Drop to reset 😁
I remember
I'd be happy with 15 bitcoins too!!
OMG it was so funny hearing you say shit just me or?
Thank you for your review! I almost bought this one from China last week!
.....
Wow I go back into the good old days. I was 10 or even youger then. I loved it
You should buy one (non fake).
SURE
Me who got one of these and was excited but couldn’t turn it on:
Get new batteries!! 😁
@@RetroGameCouch I tried that, it still didn’t work :/
It seemed very old anyway- some of the letters were worn off, and my mom’s coworker gave it to me sooo
Did you press the reset button inside the battery compartment?
@@RetroGameCouch i didn’t realize there was one, but I noticed that the batteries were in backwards and turned it on
My chicken, joy, has eaten 12 loaves of bread
Am I the only one who noticed he could have help the tama not poop on the floor? Or no??
+Jessa Dudics I wasn't paying enough attention
Sorry that wasn't meant to sound rude lol. I just noticed and I was like, "awh darn, he coulda caught it" lol
+Jessa Dudics no worries, looking back at the recording it was so obvious :)
Theres a reset because your pet can die
Mine never dies.
Code 444
Tamagotchi are still so fun and the colour ones are even better. The knock offs can go straight to the bin lol.
Take batteries and screws out. They can be used for real tamagotchis. Then throw it in the bin.
It was a things of 90s why are x her
does it turn off?
+Totally_ Toads mine doesn't.
RetroGameCouch that’s weird i have the fake one and it turns off.
+Totally_ Toads perhaps there are different versions
Totally_ Toads How do you make it turn off? Can you turn off the sound? Does it make sound? And finally how can you reset it if you unable the reset button ? Thanks for replying ^_^ (sorry for all these questions)
I gave a Gen 1 original tamogatchi , and I pause it by pressing in the middle so that I can sleep.
That is pasword is "3 4 5"
525 also works
The passwords are anything that equals to 12 when you add them together 444, 336, 732 literally anything that adds up to be 12
its 444
I have the fake one
Good luck keeping it alive. Oh wait, it doesn't die. :P
I'm sorry. Buy a real tamagotchi.
@@RetroGameCouch it does.. mine die
When you drop it on the floor you mean?
@@RetroGameCouch nope..when i'm not give my tamagochi food
discipline on a fake one = education
also i have a gen 2 2023 tamagotchi
Sorteia o tamagotchi

Is it on amazon

That sucks. Maybe you should go and guide your parents rather than just telling them what you want. My mom would do that
I did and it worked! Got a new good tamagotchi for a new years present ^.^ yay. It's a little tiny purple one which is much better quality then these
stop complaining its just a dollar what do u except for?Lol
The message I putting across is: you get what you pay for.
@@RetroGameCouch ok sorry☺️
noooo i got one of the ripoffs D:
who ever liked this i hate you
Me too
its still fun tho
The fake Tamagotchi That I have can die. the plastic is transparent
+Smokey Quartz did it cost $1?
RetroGameCouch Yeah, on AliExpress
RetroGameCouch it also doesn't reset if u drop it. But the reset button is on the front still
