Tamagotchi on Phones

 

Do you remember people with those little pocket-sized virtual pets called Tamagotchi? Or maybe you were a proud owner of one. Well back in 1996, they were the hot new toys for kids and teenagers that sold more than 40 million units worldwide, with more than 12 million in the U.S. and Canada. Not only did the original toy spur a pop culture phenomenon, but also created a new toy category and prompted countless imitations. During its peak, 15 Tamagotchi units were sold every minute in the U.S. and Canada.

Now you can relive that good old years with your Tamagotchi pets on your cell phone. Yes, you heard right, Bandai America, Inc. decided to reintroduce their popular virtual pets to cell phone users. Masao Ohata (VP) said that "the Tamagotchi virtual pet for the mobile phone gives a whole new dimension to pet ownership, users will be amazed at how Tamagotchi will rekindle the close relationship many once had with their mobile phones."

The Tamagotchi virtual pet is available through most major U.S. mobile phone carrier networks. If you like this, find out more info at bandaiwireless.com. I think it is a attempt at appealing to the inner child in people, but I do not think it will take off as a hit, unless more younger kids get cell phones of their own.
