To get a Real tama or a Fake tama? That is the question.

[Tacoburritotchi]

Hey guys!
I've been thinking of getting a tama for a long time now, and one time I just felt like getting a knockoff. Just to see how vpets are like.

But, speculations..

I mean, why not just get a real one? They're much better than the knockoffs anyway!

Can you guys please help me?

Thanks~

If you're talking about connection models, always go for a real tamagotchi, the fakes are disappointing. If you're talking about fake tamagotchis, rather than tamagotchi alternatives, I've heard that the Qpet/+color fake is decent.

I would DEFINITELY and easily recommend the Tama ON/Meets. I've had it for almost 4 months now and I am so in love with it! Plus it's got the added bonus of a live online community on the official App, so you could be part of the fun searching for marriage partners and even pass on your genes to others!

I would recommend the Tamagotchi On/Meets (since it's the current model, which, as @321Boom notes, has an active community), or the Tamagotchi Original (since it's a remake of the very first versions, making it the quintessential Tamagotchi experience).

If you're just getting into the hobby, I would avoid fakes at all costs. You may find that, when you've got more knowledge about and experience with these devices, you might want to add something bizarre to your collection, or you might not; Either way, I wouldn't recommend that approach to a beginner.
