It's kind of funny to see some childhood memories again. Speaking of the past, I never had my own Tamagotchi and thus the joy of playing on one as I was mostly helping others out fixing theirs. So all that was left for me was running some emulator at times to toy around with, delivering a suboptimal userexperience. In short: it just wasn't fun.
Today I am the proud owner of such a little Tamagotchi. Enjoying it on the original v2 hardware. The bonus of being an adult.
