I recently purchased this electronic pet for my child and it has become her new favorite toy .As my tests showed the Tamagotchi is responsive and easy to use. It has a variety of features and mini-games that keep my child entertained for hours. Plus, it's a great way to teach responsibility without the mess of a real pet. The only downside is that it can be addictive, but thats just a testament to how enjoyable it is. Overall, I highly recommend this virtual pet for any young fan of toys and games..
