I didn't forget, I was entirely unaware! Hahaha It makes sense though, given the V5.5 is version 36.0 in all regions. I guess the character-related integers in the password are to do with the character's ID and gender? Looking at the image above, a male futabatchi would have ID 05 and...

This is all incredible work! Also, can confirm that there's (probably) only four regional releases - they seem to correspond with the region codes: 0 - Japan - ROM versions 28.2, 28.3 1 - Asia / Oceania - ROM version 30.1 2 - US - ROM version 32.1 3 - Europe - ROM version 34.1 Not sure if...

This is really impressive! I was aware of the fact that a lot of the V5 swfs were archived but without being able to get past the initial loading screen I had no idea it was actually this complete and functional. I also really appreciate that you've collected the files in a google drive for...

Recovering Tamatown is a popular topic, so let's go over all the most popular queries in one: Preserved Tamatown Files I've got a spreadsheet here containing all that's currently known about what files have been preserved and which are missing. So far, the Wayback Machine has been our only...

A couple pages back I posted a link to a document I've been working on where I'd listed all the known Tamagotchi firmware versions. Previously, the document had basically just copied the version list post I made, but since this turned out looking like a bit of a mess, I've completely remade this...

Interesting, I'd not seen the arrows screen before!

Press and hold the two circular buttons, and while they're held down, press the reset button. Release the circular buttons after releasing the reset button. This should take you to the test mode. Once you're there I'm not sure which buttons you have to use to navigate past the screen test to...

The congratulations screen has been changed from the vertical banner we're familiar with on Japanese versions to a horizontal banner with "CONGRATS!" written on it. The hidden horoscope screen has changed too - it's a lot simpler, simply displaying the name of the star sign instead of "my star...

Do keep us updated on what you find.

Indeed, I've not really heard it being mentioned much around here but I believe display units are already playable in some Korean stores.

Lately I've been looking more into the version numbers of recent releases. This was probably triggered by the realisation that the Tamagotchi Meets is already available in at least 9 different variants, likely with more to come in the future depending on the success of the Tamagotchi On and...

On top of all this, they don't take fan ideas for Tamagotchis... there is a tonne of legal legwork in doing so, so they certainly wouldn't see one Pokémon fan's idea and go "oh yeah let's do that". Furthermore, the lisencing issues involved in making an Eevee Tamagotchi in the first place would...

I highly doubt that. See my post in the other topic.

The majority of Tamagotchi devices have a ROM test mode but the activation methods differ between versions. On vintage devices, a screen test can be activated by pressing A+Reset. This mode does not display a version number or test the ROM functionality, however. For most Japanese devices...

Sadly the answer is no. Items don't stick around after each generation on the V1. The V1 times are as follows, unless I'm mistaken: Mametchi, Mimitchi: Bow Tie, Bow, Pencil Kuchipatchi, Memetchi: Cap, Maracas Tarakotchi: Boots, Skateboard Hanatchi, Androtchi: Wig, Bubbles Masktchi...

So! One more gap filled in - a user in the Collectors Discord just tested their Tamatama Market Deka, revealing that its version is 15.0! I guess this position makes the most sense considering the Entama corresponds to 14 - it seems like the first Deka corresponding to each main release takes...

That has nothing to do with it. Rainfall, as I understand some of the growth charts for the V4.5 are a bit misleading. On the V4 the parent character family was uniquely determined by what your character was during the teenage stage (with the exception of the universal family which could be...

Someone just dropped this amusing picture in the collectors Discord: Name: Ucla Virtual Pet ("TOYS") Type: Generic Notes: Looks like it's the same shell design as some of the other fakes, but it says "Ucla" for some reason, lol. Looking forward to the MIT Tamagotchi  :P

Yeah, this isn't something that really depends what model of iPod / iPhone you have, it's just that it released around that time, around 2008 or so. If you want to play it today you'd need the iOS app file for it (which wouldn't be easy to get) as well as an iPod or iPhone running a version of...

- Vintage Tamagotchis do have a test mode, activated with A+Reset. However, only the screen is tested in this mode - no version numbers. - I'd not heard of Watchlin before, but yes it probably does have a test mode. I don't think any device so far has been found to not have a test mode. -...
