I thought this little toy was really fun and I have no earthly idea why it only has a one star rating. When I first tried the toy it was a little boring, but then I started getting the hang of things and I was always trying to get my hands on another one. I think you should try the Tamagotchi virtual pet and enjoy it as much as I did.

Plenty of fun if you're Patient!

I don't know why this toy is getting such bad reviews. The Gameboy version is much better than the original toy! If you're patient enough to nurture your little pets, they'll grow into creatures that are energetic and willing to please. Once they mature, they don't become sick as easily, and become better at the games. In short, this game is not for those who like lots of action. If you have lots of time on your hands and don't mind having to wait, (there's a speed time option, to wake your pets early if you like) this game is a great way to pass the time.

Tamagotchi is a great game , You can play sports maths and guessing games and your tamagothi can turn into loadsa different stuff depending on how you look after it. You can enter them in races and beauty contests nd also look after 3 at a time. they can be vegetarians or they could love meat! your tamagotchi can get sick or die but it can also lay an egg and you can start all over. Buy it.

My daughter was extremely upset when her tomagotchi died after being sick. In the virtual pet and desktop computer versions of this game, a sick or slightly ignored tomagotchi would return to its home planet. In the gameboy version you just find them dead! As a result, I'm sure that my daughter will never play with this game again.

Tamagotchis can be fun, entertaining toys. But they can also be annoying, beeping at all hours. You should only get this product if you can take responsibility for it. I don't like it too much, but I don't hate it either.

I think it's fun because you learn how to take care the Tamagotchi. If you want a pet you'll just learn how to take care of thing. I have 2 of them and their fun to me. Learn how to take care of a Tamagotchi!

This is a very fun game!

My mom got me the gameboy version and it was very fun! You have to take care of a tamagotchi by feeding it and playing games with it. It isn't exactly like a real pet but it acts like one.

I got this game for Christmas a while back, during the Tamagotchi craze. Even though I liked Tamagotchi's at the time, this game was extremely boring. All you do is leave your Game Boy on and wait for it to get hungry or bored so you can do something. There are only two good things about this game.

1) You can have up to three Tamagotchis at once. 2) There are lots of Tamagotchis, so you never know what it will grow up to be.

A cute game!

Tamagotchi for Gameboy is a cute game for younger kids. It's very similar to the keychain-egg toys but have a few additional features. You can adopt up to 3 tamagotchis at a time. Your tamagotchis have to be fed, washed, and played with. You can play sports games to build strength or mind games to raise IQ. You can enter your tamagotchis in three different competitions, one for mind, one for body, and one for cuteness. When your tamagotchis get older, they will "evolve" into different shapes. You can even potty-train them!

However, the game, like most digital/virtual pets, can get boring. If your tamagotchis' levels are high, you really have nothing to do until it beeps. This game has very few sounds, and since it is for regular gameboy and not gameboy color, the graphics are not very good. I recommend this game to all kids who liked the keychain tamagotchis. For other virtual pet games for gameboy, try Catz and Dogz.

I think that the Tamagotchie is a great, virtual game for kids, like me to have. People who are allergic to animals, can experience having pets with a Tamagotchie. There are loads of fun. You can feed them, and bathe them when they go "do their work" You can scold them when they do something wrong, and watch them go through stages. You'll notice they'll begin to grow, when they change form, or shape. They can die, when you don't look after them, and when you look in their profile, it will tell you how old they are, when they were born, how much they weigh, and what their status is.
