I honestly believe they will. It also depends on the sales and how well received the connection series gets. But it would take a couple of years before they might be able to make them as there was an interview by tama palace with one of the developers I believe mentioned it takes around 2-3 years to complete making a tamagotchi and releasing it.
I feel like if this one is succesful they will release a Jinsei version that's a mashup of the v4 and Entama by giving it some of the extra features the Entama has but giving it more minigames, because Entama has very little of them (just 3 and the jobs feature no games at all unlike the v4 lol)
I don’t think so, their gimmicks are so espicific in comparison to v1 v2 and v3 that they would need to relaunch a whole other line under another name, and well, the fans just asked for connections back, not a specific line. Edit: Actually maybe they could do something like, Tamagotchi Connection: Familytchi or Tamagotchi Connection: Music Star, and wouldn’t need to specify their versions
Thanks so much for sharing this first look with us! I'm so excited for this! The connections were my most precious memories of Tamagotchi❤ I'll be buying lots of these!
@@Divadoll9000you dont really know! its not really a combo of ALL of them, just of the versions before the v3/ketai. given the v1s connection screen didnt have other versions, i wouldnt rule it out. maybe they will? but dont get your hopes high, especially now.
I was debating when I would watch your video as I really wanted to be surprised when I get my own... but my curiosity got the better of me and I am so glad I watched. Great review! I'm disappointed by the lack of a pause feature, but everything else about it looks so awesome. Thanks for checking on those old codes for us too!
I found the vendor on keitai to be frustrating because he brought me the same item like everyday. So I'm glad this has blended programming. But seriously no pause? Bandai should know that its adult audience has busy lives and really needs that.
Oh my God! I want this so bad! I have the original Connection, the one with no extra things, just the character, two games and two of each type of food. I still love it, though. The moment I saw this re-release I knew I wanted it, as I assumed it has newer options and extras. Now that I've seen you play with it I'm absolutely certain that I DO WANT THIS. A bummer, though: mine is in Spanish, and I checked Amazon Spain and there is NO Connection on preorder. I guess I'll have to use mine in English. I'd still love to have it, though. Thanks for sharing with us!
Oh my gosh, this is a huge moment! 🥳 And so cool that you got to have a first look at it and share it with us! 🤗 I’m SO excited for it to come out since Keitais especially are one of my favourite tamas. And so cool that the shopcodes work as well 🙌 Can’t wait for your interview with Bandai! Especially since they in your last interview said the programming for the connections “had been lost” or something and couldn’t as easily be re-made as the P1 and P2 😄
can you ask in the interview whether the japanese shells will be released in the west in some other wave? ik you can import but ofc it's a little more expensive
I remember coming home from school in like 99/00 to find my Tamagotchi had died. There was a little cross on the screen and it made me cry my eyes out! I felt so neglectful and guilty! Lol.
I asked you on Facebook too I will leave the question posted, so that more members can see it. Thank you so much!!!! I'm dying of happiness to have that feature! 😂😂😂
Cool!!! A V3 and Keitai hybrid. Nice to see the Connection make a comeback. I love the shell you got, and I see the Japanese ones have Melon Soda as a shell choice. I want that one, with the one you have as second choice. Definitely going to get this one. Nice to see the shop codes work. Too bad about the passwords not working though. I wonder if Walmart is selling them, since I work there. I got the R2D2, Hello Kitty, and PacMan Nanos from Walmart. Can't wait for July 9. (Jan Griffiths).
If you don’t live in one of the countries mentioned try ordering or pre ordering through GameStop it it’s availible just pre ordered the translucent one the screen size looks smaller as far as the display pixels
I am so excited about my new Connection but holy cow is the display hard to see! The pixels aren’t nearly as clear and crisp as they were on my original Connections
My cheeks hurt from smiling!! I do have a question! Id like to know if they are thniking of making a tamagotchi corner shop gang for the switch that connects to the tama in the future ❤ thank you!
does the new shell plastic feels like a good quality like the ilder connection or do you think it feel cheaper/flimsy? Is the design print easily scratchable? 😄
When the character roster was leaked, it took a me awhile to notice that Kurokotchi was missing…I was like “why wooltchi but not kurokotchi (same character I’m sure you know 😅) but I like how Ichigotchi and Ringotchi were added to this one. Also I immediately noticed the shop code on the manual is the same as the original V3 so I had a huge feeling that they’d work in the new connection
Out of curiosity: Is the screen the same size as the old Tamagotchi Connection V3? I'd like to get a crystal shield screen protect film for the new Tamagotchi Connection V3 20th anniversary.
Maybe it’s the recording but I find it interesting that the sounds are a bit different but that might also just be my dodgy memory lol Definitely picking one up as soon as I can either in store or through Amazon because I’d love to have a “new” tamagotchi connection!
thank you for the look into this one Ra!! I'm so excited for this one, thinking of all the time I spent logging my V3s on T-Z years ago 😭 I was really happy to see that my biggest concerns (the shell quality + speaker volume/quality) both seem to look pretty good in this video. I'm excited to get my hands on them next month too!
Did the pause feature work? I didn't see it in the video if you tried. 😭 Awesome that you got it early! It looks just like the originals, and I'm so excited to get mine next month!
Hey I have a question in the tamagotchi gen 1&2 u can silence it by pressing the right and left button at the same time to mute it can u do that to the tamagotchi connection 20th anniversary??
can you please help me with something? The thing is, I’m planning to buy this Tamagotchi on Amazon. but my main language is Spanish so I don’t know why the box shows up in English and French so my question is, is there any chance the Tamagotchi comes in Spanish English Japanese and French?
Have you seen any interesting shop items / foods yet? I think they’re probably mostly the same as the V3 but there seems to be a few from some of the other versions
Do they have the weight and feel as the original? My sister used to have one when we were little so I can’t compare the two, but this one feels lighter?
Don’t worry Europe is gonna have the same types of designs as the American release although most likely alittle later and they will be releasing 4 shells each season so expect more choices by the end of the year.
I was born in 2007 but I own multiple v-pets from digimon to evangelion, and I never got to experience the connection hayday, so I'm really exited that Bandai is re-releasing the connection and the v3 programing at that, I only ever got to experience the gen 1 reboot and the Nanos. Bandai has answered our prayers.
If you don’t live in one of the countries mentioned try ordering or pre ordering through GameStop it it’s availible just pre ordered the translucent one
Hi Ra! A few questions if you don't mind: 1. is there a C click reaction? 2. is there a light-switch? 3. is there mail? 4. what are the items in the connection menu? Thanks!
Yes, there are C click animations. Yes, there is a light switch. No, there is no mail. That is a V4 function. Connection menu options are: Game, Present, Visit. It cannot connect with original connections though.
I find it really odd that bandai is releasing the Ketai V3 in the states since this isn't what most of us are used to on V3 connections. The pause feature alone will be very missed along with the jobs not being a thing. I wonder why they chose to do such a broad release for this particular model and not releasing the American V3 connection in the states.
i want this one and i reaaaally hope they bring the japanese shells here so i can get the melon soda shell as well! so exciting! i'm glad you got it early, i'm so jealous! i wish either the connections or the angel/monster uni came out this month and the other next not at the same time
I'm so excited for this! I have a question (anyone reading this can answer!) but do you recommend getting two instead of one? I'm the only one who collects tamas so I play alone. If I get one connection, will I miss out on a lot?
In Germany the pre Order isnt even available…. Lets find out what the device is capable of and Not wait and find out myself because bandai doesnt want me to
I can't wait to get this, I have two on pre-order. I noticed you said the month is July the month is actually June I'm guessing this is a slight error anyway I have loads of tamagotchis myself and can't wait to get these ❤❤❤
Tamagotchis can not connect with the DS Corner Shop games. They only exchange codes. On the DS Corner Shop game, if you reach a certain level, you will see some codes. There are two codes. You can enter these codes into the V3 to receive a pen and a clone. However, in the video I already tried these codes and they didn't work sadly.
i'm so excited!! these are my favourites ❤️ such a shame they're not backwards compatible... but i love the new content! i hope jyw has preorders soon, i'd love the iconic pink heart shell
@@RaTamaZone Thanks so much for letting us know! I've only ever had the Tamagotchi Connection V2 so I'm really excited about all the news I can get for the re-releases! Already pre-ordered the true friends 2 pack! 😄
@@RyosukeTakahashiRX7 this workaround is so insanely antiquated in 2024, especially when the US connection release addressed it 20 years ago. why, 20 years after the solution to this was introduced, am i expected to go to the clock screen, wait for the clock to scroll over (not exactly quick), and then pause the clock so when i "unpause," i have to reset the clock all over again so it's at the correct time? having a workaround is good, but saying that the absence of this extremely low-effort QOL feature introduced 2 decades ago is "no big deal" is silly if you want the manufacturer to fix things in later waves.
@nico-wj1mh They don't want it to be pausable, it's that simple. They never wanted Tamagotchis to be paused. In all modern Tamas where it exists, it's a hidden feature as well. Just look at the Uni. It was added through an update, but never mentioned in the update notes or anywhere. A fan discovered it by chance and that's why the Uni can be paused at all.
@@RyosukeTakahashiRX7 first of all, you're describing things as they are, not how they ought to be. the market decides how products, especially ones as niche as this, get made and revised. every single person that knows about the workaround is a potential customer that could be lost by the absence of the feature. this is a niche product for a niche demographic; bandai will 100% be watching this comment section for pointers on the next wave, like the shells people have been complaining about since the instagram announcement, otherwise they wouldn't have reached out to people in the community in the first place, giving their time for interviews, etc. being like "they don't want to lol" is self-defeating. second, it probably took some development and QA effort to add it to the uni. do you think they would've done that if people didn't keep asking for it? do you think they would willingly burn employee hours on a feature nobody wants? and third, "never wanted tamagotchis to be paused" is an extremely weird thing to say when, again, this is a feature from 20 years ago. they clearly excluded it because their desire to not have it and the money saved implementing it was greater than the market demand. if you want it, then just...say that it's a feature you want.
@nico-wj1mh Ever thought about how the Pause feature might be a thing they've added to make their own development and troubleshooting so much easier? I fail to see how customers would be in the picture at all given it was never mentioned anywhere and Bandai keeps insisting you can't pause the Uni. Try it yourself, ask their customer support. I did and their reply was that it's impossible to pause. Also, you genuinely think they've saved any money at all by not including a native pause feature? That's at most two lines of code lmao. You're making up so many excuses with your mental gymnastics because you can't accept the simplest and most obvious answer: it's done deliberately. They do not want you to pause. That's it. Ask the customer support yourself instead of wasting your time here making things up! Btw, the interview is uploaded now! They explicitly state they don't want you to pause because it's a real pet like any other cat or dog where you can't pause your responsibility either. That is Bandai's position!
That is super interesting that the Shop codes work! I’m pleasantly surprised by that. Thank you so much for showing us, Ra!
I wonder if they plan to release future revamps of the V4, V4,5, V5, etc. Great to see a review from you, im excited for this release ♥️🎉
I honestly believe they will. It also depends on the sales and how well received the connection series gets. But it would take a couple of years before they might be able to make them as there was an interview by tama palace with one of the developers I believe mentioned it takes around 2-3 years to complete making a tamagotchi and releasing it.
I would love a remake of the V5, since they had the wider screen.
Praying for a re release of the Music Star but I think I'll drive the price of the og music stars down. They're still my favorite to this day.
I feel like if this one is succesful they will release a Jinsei version that's a mashup of the v4 and Entama by giving it some of the extra features the Entama has but giving it more minigames, because Entama has very little of them (just 3 and the jobs feature no games at all unlike the v4 lol)

They really should've given us a pause button
I know, it's a bummer. But you can still pause it by leaving it on the clock set screen. :)
So much nostalgia and I never owned a Keitai so I can't wait to see how it will be!
Keitai is fun but simpler than our v3, though it has some features I really love like the connection games.
@@Jhud69yep! ketai is a much more dumbed down version of the v3 it feels, but still has a lot of charm!
Is it just me or the screen actually seems much darker in this new one? 9:58
yes. lol
Oh my gosh it's here! This is historical.
Great review! Please ask Bandai if they would consider re-releasing the V4, V5 and V6 if the V3 does really well.
They won’t, because this is a mix of pretty much all of them.
Probably wont*

@@annie_122 Hmmm... well, maybe I should wait and see then. Hope they're not limited edition, though
Guys it's not a v3. They stated it's a merge programming of the connections...
I hope to see the growth chart

do the shells seem similar enough that you could do a shell swap of the board from the new tama connection into a shell from an old tama connection?
It seems so from the outside. I haven't opened it up to check the inside.
The print quality is better than the gen 1 and gen 2? 😮 I might want to get more than I originally anticipated if that’s the case!

You kinda ate by having the exclusive on this lol 😆😘
Is the Japanese version can be in English ??
Yes.
Is it just me or is the apple sprite different?
Not going to lie, the lack of pause is kind of disappointing, especially as it's one of the big things that put me off getting any original rereleases
You can pause every single tamagotchi by simply entering the change clock time option and leaving ot there. It's not a big deal.
@@RyosukeTakahashiRX7 this workaround is so insanely antiquated in 2024, especially when the US connection release addressed it 20 years ago. why, 20 years after the solution to this was introduced, am i expected to go to the clock screen, wait for the clock to scroll over (not exactly quick), and then pause the clock so when i "unpause," i have to reset the clock all over again so it's at the correct time?
having a workaround is good, but saying that the absence of this extremely low-effort QOL feature introduced 2 decades ago is "no big deal" is silly if you want the manufacturer to fix things in later waves.
@nico-wj1mh They don't want it to be pausable, it's that simple. They never wanted Tamagotchis to be paused.
In all modern Tamas where it exists, it's a hidden feature as well. Just look at the Uni. It was added through an update, but never mentioned in the update notes or anywhere. A fan discovered it by chance and that's why the Uni can be paused at all.
@@RyosukeTakahashiRX7 first of all, you're describing things as they are, not how they ought to be. the market decides how products, especially ones as niche as this, get made and revised. every single person that knows about the workaround is a potential customer that could be lost by the absence of the feature. this is a niche product for a niche demographic; bandai will 100% be watching this comment section for pointers on the next wave, like the shells people have been complaining about since the instagram announcement, otherwise they wouldn't have reached out to people in the community in the first place, giving their time for interviews, etc. being like "they don't want to lol" is self-defeating.
second, it probably took some development and QA effort to add it to the uni. do you think they would've done that if people didn't keep asking for it? do you think they would willingly burn employee hours on a feature nobody wants?
and third, "never wanted tamagotchis to be paused" is an extremely weird thing to say when, again, this is a feature from 20 years ago. they clearly excluded it because their desire to not have it and the money saved implementing it was greater than the market demand. if you want it, then just...say that it's a feature you want.
@nico-wj1mh Ever thought about how the Pause feature might be a thing they've added to make their own development and troubleshooting so much easier? I fail to see how customers would be in the picture at all given it was never mentioned anywhere and Bandai keeps insisting you can't pause the Uni. Try it yourself, ask their customer support. I did and their reply was that it's impossible to pause.
Also, you genuinely think they've saved any money at all by not including a native pause feature? That's at most two lines of code lmao. You're making up so many excuses with your mental gymnastics because you can't accept the simplest and most obvious answer: it's done deliberately.
They do not want you to pause. That's it. Ask the customer support yourself instead of wasting your time here making things up!
Btw, the interview is uploaded now! They explicitly state they don't want you to pause because it's a real pet like any other cat or dog where you can't pause your responsibility either. That is Bandai's position!
