This was the first Tama that i ever got. Honestly, probably because it was my first, this was my favorite one. I had a petithanatchi, but I wasn't able to pronounce it so I named her Patricia.
I completely missed out on the connections, so going from 90's virtual pets to these was impressive to me. I had a nano puppy as a kid and loved it, but not a tamagotchi. I now have the p1/p2 and connections re-issues, as well as many other modern and vintage tamas and other virtual pets. I love seeing how they have progressed over time.
Nice review, Ra. Thanks for sharing! I love how this one has a lot of different games. Can't wait to get mine. I'm sure it'll keep me entertained for a while :)
my friends and i literally all bought this at hot topic yesterday, and we havent been able to put it down! it's my first ever tamagotchi ;w;/ so its all so new to me
I also saw this on eBay and thought I had never seen it before and even thought about going on the Tama forums to ask people! Haha so funny that this is how everyone found out! Great review, I figured if anyone would know about these Tamas it would be you!
Honestly it's no surprise how poorly the tamagotchi does in america considering how AWFUL their marketing is. I think hot topic will be one of the best places to sell it because i feel like a lot of teens will buy it out of pure nostalgia.
RaTamaZone yeah I bought both of mine there. They also have the little toy figures. And I think it was either $8 or $14 for the dream town tamagotchi. Really good price I thought. It's by the dolls section... I've seen them on an end cap too :-D
It's wild to hear about how badly these were marketed! Especially with how successful the Uni and re-issue of the connections has been. I'm glad I grabbed a Friends and Friends Dream Town when they were first available. They are so expensive now! Like y'all, these are not on the same level as the Meets/Ons. Please don't pay that much for them. However, I do enjoy this series. I had a job that was wrecking my mental health in 2014, and my tama friends helped me deal with it. That, and actual mental health help, of course. Fast forward to now: I'm doing much better in a job I like, and I just reactivated my friends dream town for the first time in years!
I'm sorry you went through some rough times, but it's really cool to hear how much these helped you get through a difficult time in your life! I think it's awesome that you are running your Dream Town after all this time. :)
Hey Ra, I have the pup,e plaid design. Picked it up at Hot Topic for $15. I have a question. I filled the bff heart completely and it played the ending that I opened both locked games, but when I went into games, it only opened one of the locked games. Any ideas on this? Thanks
Ra, hun the one with the pets, you know the game.. Your not throwing rocks at them you are giving them treats haha the dogs eat them haha. Love the video! So what do you think about this version?
Omg I'm so confused both me and my friend have wave/version 1 but mine doesn't have a colour background round the icons OMGGGGGGGGG and mine is kinda wierd in a place it feels like it's been taken apart then put back together but mine was supposed to be brand new just without a box and my friends is in better condition than mine cause also the paint is coming off mine!! OMG PLEASE TELL ME WHATS HAPPENING
the paint coming off is normal, tamagotchi friends european version its kinda the worst tamagotchi... i have the "cat" desing one and now its all white lmao
the PS are SUPER expensive but the dream town isn't color, you should either get a dt or a 4u, they're $27-29 on amazon, get the DT for $15 if you want to save cash
While I'm happy that the tamagotchi brand has been revived, I'm sad that this is the form the reboot has taken. The poor quality product is going to lead to bad sales which will make future releases less likely.

Slightly off topic, that Tamagotchi holder in the background is absolutely amazing!
OpalSpring Thank you. :) It was custom designed and made for me by Coraluna from the facebook group.
Nice review, Ra. Thanks for sharing! I love how this one has a lot of different games. Can't wait to get mine. I'm sure it'll keep me entertained for a while :)
AtlanticRaven Thank you! Yes, definitely a much better upgrade from the previous version!
my friends and i literally all bought this at hot topic yesterday, and we havent been able to put it down! it's my first ever tamagotchi ;w;/ so its all so new to me
🎃 SweetPumpkin 🎃,
LOOOL , so did me and my friend ! XD #Adictive
I still don’t know what the “tag read “is for, the manual says feature coming soon but it’s been years and no one talks about it.
I also saw this on eBay and thought I had never seen it before and even thought about going on the Tama forums to ask people! Haha so funny that this is how everyone found out! Great review, I figured if anyone would know about these Tamas it would be you!

Hello Ra,
I have a question. I am new to the tama's in color. I can't decide if I want to invest in the 4u, P's or IDL. Which do you recommend?
The game where you're suppose to match fruits that are falling is also available as a job in music star. Just played it while watching this video ;D
There also are a few available on Amazon if anyone is looking for one and ebay is to pricy!
I've been waiting this video all the time! Thanks❤
Great video ! I didn't see all the comments but I have found these at Tuesday Morning stores in the US. They are a good price too.
skyetrance I have heard that, too. I'll need to drop by my local Tuesday Morning store and have a look around.
RaTamaZone yeah I bought both of mine there. They also have the little toy figures. And I think it was either $8 or $14 for the dream town tamagotchi. Really good price I thought. It's by the dolls section... I've seen them on an end cap too :-D
Hi Ra! Do you have an ani-pod? I have the dog one, but i don't really know how to use it 😅. If you have one could you do a review of it?
By any chance Ra do you know when they will be available at hot topic ?
PokemonMijumaru1 I'm afraid not. Soon I should imagine.
I contacted my Hot topic and he was unsure if Hot topic would be carrying this tama. But he did say to call back often and check :)
Just bought one today from Hot Topic!
I was able to get a one today from hot topic so happy :)
I think the chef game was on a tama go figure? could be wrong
I want one but it would turn out as $40 if I ship to australia :(
the price is bound to go way up like the

They have these at Hot Topic lol
Hey Ra,
I have the pup,e plaid design. Picked it up at Hot Topic for $15. I have a question. I filled the bff heart completely and it played the ending that I opened both locked games, but when I went into games, it only opened one of the locked games. Any ideas on this? Thanks
You have to buy 30 pieces of jewelery to unlock the other game sadly but yeah
Ra, hun the one with the pets, you know the game.. Your not throwing rocks at them you are giving them treats haha the dogs eat them haha. Love the video! So what do you think about this version?
oddsandendswithlove Ah, are they treats? Gotcha. But they aren't dogs, they're the little hermit crab pets from the P's.
how do you turn down the contrast?...
just recently saw them at hot topic lol kinda weird seeing it there :3
Have you heard about the 4u+?
It comes in lime green :)
***** Yes, of course I have. Trust me, if there's news of a new version coming out, I find out about it the moment it happens lol.
i bought one on hot topic i found it in the deepest corner of the store.
Omg I'm so confused both me and my friend have wave/version 1 but mine doesn't have a colour background round the icons OMGGGGGGGGG and mine is kinda wierd in a place it feels like it's been taken apart then put back together but mine was supposed to be brand new just without a box and my friends is in better condition than mine cause also the paint is coming off mine!!

The Dream Town was sweet
Are the buttons plastic??
This game was from the tama go
Goof up is an understatement. Great review!
Mandie Taylor Indeed! Haha. Thanks! :)
Great video Ra !!
PokemonMijumaru1 Thanks!
On tamagotchi friends do u have to bump to text each other?
yes you do and for recieving texts too!
Do you think I should get a dream town or a p's?
the PS are SUPER expensive but the dream town isn't color, you should either get a dt or a 4u, they're $27-29 on amazon, get the DT for $15 if you want to save cash
But thay do sell blind boxes
Ra, would you recommend Tamagotchi Friends : Dream Town, or P?
MrToyEater Can't really fairly compare the two as one is in color and the other is not.
RaTamaZone What do you think is the best greyscale tamagotchi?
MrToyEater, this is one of the best I'd say.
thanks for the review! ^^
On Tamagotchi Friends, do they just leave or can they die too?
They can do both. It depends on the age.
I might get it next week if they have it at hot topic 💖😃
Emma's Animations did you end up getting it? I had to get it second hand from Mercari but it’s coming

+enzyme20056 Tamagotchi 4u+ is wonderful. I don't know why do people get this Tamagotchi Friends. It is not colorful.
Which knowing Bandai, is their intention. Bandai doesn't seem to want English fans
+Ilkin Santak because I don't speak Japanese lol. If there were English colored ones available, I would get those instead.
Ohthatsnathan u can get that u can get the P'S and English patch it or u can buy an English patched one off ebay
This one blows the original Friends out of the tamawater.
I loo
is this one more fun than the tamago. cuz the tamago is just flat out boring :/
I think so, but I'm getting one. I might make a review too, so if you have any questions you can ask xD
