Tamagotchi finally goes colour

Yes, for some godforsaken reason these things are still around, and it looks like they still poop a bit too much, However, this time it is all done it beautiful colour, as Bandai have announced they are releasing colour version of the now 12 year old virtual pet. This time round it will have a 1.52-inch TFT screen, hitting the highs of 128×128 resolution which could burn your eyes from your face if you’re not careful

The exterior of the product will look a little bit different than you remembered as well, and will now boast a snazzy two-tone case. There will be more locations for your pet to visit as well, with nice colourful backgrounds popping up should you go to the shop or playgrounds. Toilets have seen an update to, and your pet will now go to the bathroom instead of just pooing magically on the right of the screen in a pixelated smelly lump

If you are all excited now, the please settle down as the product has only been confirmed for Japan as of yet, and no Euro or US date is known. If you can’t contain yourself, then you can probably import one for around £35 when it hits Japan in November in the seven colours shown above. Yes, it costs that much!
