Gigapets - How long do they last?

[Eternal Mametchi Fan]

Surprisingly, I had a Gigapet several years before a Tamagotchi but I barely remember it. I got it brand new for Christmas. I think it had a dinosaur... Anyhow, all I know is I hated it and it soon broke. I don't know when. It could have been a week or a month, but are Giga Pets usually that junky? I didn't mistreat it or anything.

Gigapets are nice but they are REALLY needy and sensitive. Little things you do can make them die.

Giga Pets don't seem as well made as Tamas. I've heard way more stories of Gigas that no longer function correctly than I have vintage Tamas. And from all I've heard of them they are notoriously difficult to care for. I had a Jurassic Park Giga that wasn't so bad though.

All my giga pets work perfectly :x and they are vintage, some new in package some very VERY used

I guess I heard wrong then. I don't have much experience with Giga Pets. I only had a couple back in the day and the only one I really liked was the Jurassic Park one. The other two, Yoda and Small Soldiers, I could never figure out. I may get another Jurassic Park one someday.

I think the most common problem with Gigas were the speakers dying on them. I never had any problems with mine, though. But then again I take good care of all of my pets.
