    My boyfriend and I each bought one a year ago or so, he had a baby blue one, and I had a baby pink one. But it died a LONG time ago, but I remember having a spare battery so I plugged it in and now i'm..playing it LOL.
    Does anyone still have one of these lying around?

    I'm looking at my orange one on my nightstand right now. :D

    When they first came out I had a keyring of like ten of them. :p I had so many that I couldn't keep up with them and most of them died. :lol: I lost all but the one I have now though. I play it when I'm /super/ bored, like today. XD But then it starts to bore me and I just let it die. =]

    I usde to have one...I also remember there being a thread about these guys on here a while back, but can't find it...

    Anyway, it has been a long long long time...and ever since my battery died I just never replaced it. I don't know what ended up happening to it...maybe I threw it away :/

    When I was little I always wanted one, but my mom just said it was a waste of money. =(

    But, I remember at an ancient McDonald's kids meal giveaway the toy were these various fake tamogotchi things; they looked real but were actually just little lights or something.

    I remember getting like every V Connection and finally realizing it was a waste of time. 20 bucks and a whole lot of time was not worth it for some peice of plastic that needed constant care.

    I had one when i was younger, but I got bored of it really quickly, I think I just let it die and threw it away. My only vivd memory is waiting for the laundry to finish while I messed with it.

    Hahhahahah! I had a Tamagotchi when I was in 6th grade. I remember I was playing with it in class and my teacher saw and took it away. Before I had a chance to pause it. So of course, when she finally gave it back to me it was dead. Then I just gave up because I had gotten so far with the one that had died. xD

    I had one that was like, a longneck dinosaur (brontosaurus, I think. the kind that's like Littlefoot. :) ) and I lost it for the longest time. It took aaaages to die, and I heard it making that sad beeping noise for about 4 days straight, but I could never figure out where it was coming from.
    Found it right after it died between the cushions on my couch. (Y)

    Those were the days.

    I want a new one!
    Thanks for stirring me up. *crinkles nose*
    I'm going to have to go shopping now.

    Haha, I used to like playing with these way back in the days (actually only several years ago ^^;;;), but I enjoyed it...before the battery died.

    I remember how that was such a huge fad when I was a kid. My sister started going crazy because our mom wouldn't buy her one, saying it was a waste of time.

    I didn't know they still existed since I haven't encountered any in years. P:

    This reminds me of a pocket pikachu or something like that...it was essentially a step counter that increased the more you walked. That was cool because it promoted exercise and good health. It was a good idea.

    Everyone also just shook them a whole lot, but the walking was fun too. I remember giving it to my mom or something while I was at school so it would increase and I wouldn't have to take it to school with me :p
