RETRO FIND: Tamagotchis became the ultimate ‘90s toy obsession
Move over Beanie Babies! Tamagotchis were the 90s toy that everyone had to have.
Attention toys. R US shoppers just arrived and located at the end of aisle six *** is the virtual pet Tamagotchi move over beanie babies. There's *** new toy in town called Tamagotchi. I thought it would be fun for my son. But then I decided to keep it for myself. It's like *** fad at school. Now. *** lot of people have them. Tamagotchi is *** tiny pet from cyberspace in the shape of an egg and stores are having *** hard time keeping them in stock. You feed it, play with it, discipline it and even clean up after it. You're taking care of it like *** regular child and after it goes and does what it has to do, you actually have to flush so it doesn't get sick. Here's how it works. First, you have to wake it up from its million light years sleep. Then there's the egg. It will take about five minutes to hatch periodically. The tama got, you will have four hearts flash on the screen. They represent happiness and hunger. Now the more of those hearts are filled, the more satisfied the time got. Oh, I had my store director told me but she was gonna outlaw me from bringing it because it's addicting. If you keep Tamagotchi full and happy, it will grow into *** cute cyber creature if not be prepared for an unattractive alien on your hands. Christine ST News eight.
