What is a Tamagotchi? - List of Tamagotchi - Tamagotchi Accessories - Buying Tamagotchi - Other Digital Pets - My Collection - Wishlist

I started working on this site before I ever started collecting virtual pets. Boy, how things have changed. My collection is now going strong, with 13 Tamagotchi, two Digimon, four Pocket Neopets, and one Giga Pet. I purchased my first Tamagotchi secondhand once I had a job of my own, and my collection has only snowballed from there. Collection pictures are forthcoming! I'm in college, and most of my collection is not with me as I write this.

Tamagotchi

I am currently the proud owner of 14 Tamagotchi, from classic to color. Most of mine are Connection-era since that's the period I have the most nostalgia for, but I've picked up others as I see them. Currently I have:

I also have a handful of accessories, including a teal silicone case for one of my v3s and a hard glittery case for the Angel. Some of my eggs also have crochet cases, but I don't really count those as part of my collection because they weren't made by Bandai. Only a few of these have the packaging; the ON, Smart, and the two nanos are the only ones which I purchased new and as a result the only ones with boxes. I'm not a mint collector, I like my Tamagotchi to breathe!

Everything Else

I obviously emphasize on collecting Tamagotchi, but that doesn't mean I don't love other virtual pets. I just have a tendency to want to spend less on them. However, there are a few notable exceptions.

Pocket Neopets

I've loved Neopets for almost as long as I've loved Tamagotchi, and that means I am the proud owner of four Pocket Neopets. I'd love to have them all someday, but I don't really actively hunt for any v-pets and I just scoop them up as I see them. Currently I have:

These little guys have a ton of charm, and I love the Polly Pocket-esque playset feel. I've never actually had the chance to run one for more than a couple minutes for testing, but aesthetically they're one of my favorite v-pets for sure.

Digimon

I only have two Digimon: a yellow 20th Anniversary and a black/red Digimon X. Gameplay-wise, the DMX is probably my favorite pet I've ever run. I love the quest mechanic, it really makes it feel more like a game than just a pet. I love the interactivity, and the Digimon designs are all super cool. I'd love to collect more Digimon, but they seem to be a little more expensive than Tamagotchi across the board so it'll probably be a while until I get more. Unless I decide to pre-order the DMX2. Which I might.

Giga Pets

The only Giga Pet I have is the Looney Tunes one. I haven't run it yet, but I love the design of the later Giga Pets Plus toys with their little kickstand feet. Again, I'd love to have more Gigas but the price has to be right, you know?
