The 4U is a Japan exclusive and when bought can only be viewed in Japanese, but this guide will help you understand what is being said in English.
There are some guides online that can be print out, and there are some guides on YouTube as well.
First, I'm going to give the icons and their options.
The first icon on the top.
-Status
- Profile
- Settings.
Status- has four different screens.
-1st screen is Hunger/Happiness.
-the meter of happiness will grow and eventually form a circle when your Tama is fully grown.
- the hunger meter goes up to six rice balls. If you see an empty space you need to feed your Tama.
-2nd screen is Information about your Tama.
-name of Tama
- Gender
- age
- weight
- $$$
-3rd screen shares the skill badges your Tama has/doesn't have.
-There are two sections to these skills.
1st skills- Basic Skills
- These include Potty Training, Cleaning, and Bathing
-these skills are achieved during the toddler stage of your Tama through proper prompting, praise, and scolding. Different icons will appear and you will need to be attentive if you want these badges. Poo icon when shown you need to have your Tama use the toilet, afterward, praise your Tama. Cleaning icon will show around 6pm. Your Tama will make a mess from blocks and it needs to vacuum. After Tama does action, make sure to praise it. Toothbrush icon happens before bedtime. After brushing teeth and taking bath make sure to praise Tama. These actions only need to be done a few times to earn the badge.
2nd skills-Special Skills
-These skills are learned when your Tama can attend school. After so many lessons your Tama will complete the class and receive a badge of said skill. There are five different classes your Tama can take, and up to five badges can be earned. Science, Fashion, Sports, Art, and Cooking.
-4th screen shows a clover.
-This clover represents friendship points.
-You need to learn what is your Tama's favorite foods or items it loves. There are three. My current Tama has a favorite meal, snack, and piece of clothing, for example. The last point appears after having your Tama for 72 hours. When you have all four the clover will be colored.

Here is some other information you might want to know.
Stages Of A Tamagotchi
-Baby
-Toddler
-Adult
(teenager is skipped)
- Another look? Your tamagotchi can evolve into another stage as an adult. I think it is referred to as a personality stage. I think this relates to the happiness meter and the likes of your tamagotchi.
Filling Happiness Meter
Make sure to find out your tama's favorite food and snack. Some food your tama will not like.
Make sure to play games with your tama.
Have your tama go to class when it is an adult.
Have your tama go to the park.
Have your tama play with toys, clothes, and accessories. Some toys your tama will not like.
You can interact with your tama not only through talking, but also by pressing © button (right button).
Backyard of Tama House
To visit the backyard of your Tama all you have to do is press the middle button (
when no icons are selected.
While in the backyard you will be able to see the weather conditions. Sometimes your tama may write a letter, chase a butterfly, or more.
During certain times a vendor will stop by and you can buy food.
During certain times, when your tama is an adult, other tamas will stop by and request something. Depending on what skill badges your tama has earned will determine how well your tama performs at the task given. Your tama could earn up to 2,000g. For example, if your tama has the science badge, and the visitor needs help with a rocket ship, you will be completely successful and earn 2,000g. Other tasks you can earn 1,000g.
Dowload?
Mr. Blinky has made an app for android phones. If you happen to have one, you will be able to download a restore patch (do this first,) and then an english patch. The english patch will change icon wording to english. This won't change when your tama or other tamas talk however, that will still be in Japanese.
The app also has toys, food, clothing, accessories, games (you can download only two), and other characters.
Hopefully this helps a little bit!!!! If you have anything else to add, please leave in the comments
