Bandai America Puts the Future in Kids’ Hands with New Tamagotchi
Tamagotchi® Connection® V4 'Virtual Pet' Allows Fans to Now Dictate Their Characters’ Education, Lifestyle and Career
(Cypress, CA - December 21, 2006) - Bandai America Incorporated, a leader in introducing hot Japanese toy trends to the U.S. marketplace, is calling on fans to 'live the Tamagotchi life' 24/7 with the new Tamagotchi Connection V4. As the most technologically advanced version of the world’s first and top selling 'virtual pet' tech toy, kids can now control the destiny of their Tamagotchi characters by choosing which classes to take in school and eventually the career and lifestyle they’ll enjoy in the future. Fans can experience firsthand, alongside their character, what it’s like to be a fashion designer, rock star, florist or doctor as they mold their character into an upstanding citizen of Tamagotchi Town.
'Tamagotchi Connection V4 empowers fans like never before as they choose what kind of lives their virtual pets will lead - responsibilities far beyond feeding and providing basic care,' said Michael Riley, vice president of marketing for Bandai America Inc. 'Kids can share in the excitement as characters get praise for being a star student or land their first job, and even live out their own fantasies for the future. The depth of play and hours of endless entertainment reaffirm the notion of living the Tamagotchi life.'

The original Tamagotchi was first introduced in Japan in 1996 and was a huge craze. It wasn't long before Bandai introduced it to Europe and North America where the craze grew further. By late 1998 and 1999, the fad has began to die out. Tamagotchi products became rarer to find until production was stopped altogether.
Kids help determine their characters’ future careers and fate by playing the fun mini games in their Tamagotchi to earn Intellectual, Beauty or Social 'Skill Points.' Depending on the accumulation of these points, owners can choose from a variety of 15 different professions as well as change careers later when openings become available. And, just like in the real world, characters must prove that they’re qualified for certain jobs - in this case, by having enough of the right Skill Points for their coveted profession.
Meanwhile, since everyone loves receiving goodies in the mail, the new 'Gotchi Post' feature includes good and bad fortunes, letters and news that add even more anticipation and adventure to life’s journey. It also guides the characters with invitations on when to attend preschool, elementary school and then to apply for a job once they’re ready.
V4 introduces even more fans to the magical world of TamagotchiTown.com with new games, activities and locales. While using 'Gotchi Points' and special passwords, visitors can go online to shop in the mall, visit with their virtual pet’s parents, watch movies at the theater, play in the arcade, grab a bite in the food court and even visit the revered Tamagotchi King at his castle. Fans can also continue to travel the world, but to new exotic destinations like Paris, Africa and Tokyo. V4 even expands upon the site by letting kids see their character interacting online as it goes to school, plays in the various games and partakes in life’s other daily adventures. Log on to see the new official TamaTown.com driver’s license, as well as the Shopping Bag which conveniently lists all the recent items purchased or won from the site.
The 'Great Tamagotchi Fan Shell-ection'
The thrilling arrival of V4 is even more Tama-rrific since the winning design of last summer’s first-ever 'Great Tamagotchi Fan Shell-ection' will be one of the first new V4 styles produced. Tamagotchi fans fervently made their voices heard by voting to determine a new Tamagotchi design and, after a tight race to the finish line, fans overwhelmingly chose 'Glow-in-the-Dark' as the eventual winner and this season’s 'must-have' look. Watch for the special, limited time offer of 'Glow-in-the-Dark' to Tama-takeoff from shelves soon!
Tamagotchi Connection V4 includes an ever-expanding assortment of new design styles, the most games ever (20 games), 21 new characters (for a total of 53), and even more collectible items and souvenirs than before (144 total). V4 builds on the play pattern of the very first virtual pet by letting owners still 'connect' their Tamagotchi with others - regardless of which version they have - via the awesome infrared technology feature. The toys also have a snazzy new look, with a colorful ball on the antenna’s end, and come in a redesigned package. Tamagotchi Connection V4 debuts in January at all major retailers nationwide with a SRP of $14.99. Gotchi GearTM lanyards, charms, and Pet Pouches also debut with a SRP of $4.99 - $7.99.

It is the sequel to Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop, also released for the Nintendo DS. It was followed by Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 3.
Gameplay[edit]
The player once again partners up with the same Tamagotchi characters from the first game and must try to make all shops royal. After all shops become royal, Princess Tamako is unlocked as a partner, but the game will not be saved. The currency used in the game is called gotchi.
The game begins with the player choosing a four-letter name, with the suffix '-tchi' automatically added to the end to define the player as a Tamagotchi, like the rest of the characters. After choosing one of three potential partners, a short scene is featured in with the player's chosen partner reveals that they have won the Tamagotchi Lottery, with prize money of 10,000 gotchi which are used to purchase shops.
In this game, many of the Tamagotchis from the first game return, while some do not. Many of the new ones are from Tamagotchi Connection V4, Tamagotchi School, and Uratama. At the beginning of the game, the player must choose a name and a partner. There are three potential partners: Memetchi, Kuchipatchi, and Mametchi.
Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 2 features twelve playable shops that are played through screen interaction. After serving a customer at each shop, the player is paid an amount of gotchi and is given a review. The possible reviews are Try Harder, meaning that the service was inadequate, Great Job, meaning that the service was satisfactory yet not perfect, and Awesome Job, meaning that the service was completed completely towards the customer's standards. Each time the player serves a customer and is paid, the shop's reputation rises depending on their review. When the reputation rises to a certain level, Princess Tamako pays a visit, and once she is served she offers to renovate the shop. There are four shop levels: The first level is Puchi, which is the stage the shop is in when it is first bought, whereas the following levels are Metchi, Gotchi, and Royal.
When the player first purchases a shop, only four of the twelve are available: Cake Shop, Burger Shop, Flower Shop and Gas Station. After boosting one or numerous shops to certain stages, an additional six shops are made available: Flight, Concert Hall, Clinic, Boutique, Bowling, and Sushi Bar. The final two shops are Sushi-Bowl and Music Clinic; the Sushi-Bowl can only be unlocked by boosting both the Sushi Bar and the Bowling shop to the Royal Stage, whereas the Music Clinic can only be unlocked through boosting both the Concert Hall and Clinic to royal. The combined Sushi-Bowl and Music Clinic do not require going through the Metchi and Gotchi stages in order to become royal; after the first visit from Princess Tamako, she renovates the shop from putchi to royal.
