Bandai Japan Updates Tamagotchi Original Website with Character Bios
Looks like Bandai Japan is really jumping into the Tamagotchi Original! They’ve just updated their Tamagotchi Original website with pixel sprites of all 20 characters featured in the P1 and P2 and have included bios for each character! What a cute addition.
Tamagotchi Original Case Provides Additional Accessibility
The Tamagotchi community is truly amazing, and always innovating. Yeawrongperson on Reddit recently posted pictures of their prototype for a Tamagotchi Original case that allows them to easily hold their Tamagotchi in their hand due to challenges with their disability.
In the comments of the Reddit thread, Yeawrongperson elaborates that their one good hand is simply too big to comfortable hold the Tamagotchi, and this prototype makes it easier.
The case itself is made using a 3D printer. It case appears to snap onto the Tamagotchi Original and features a pop socket like handle in the back that rests between your fingers. This is an excellent idea that increases the accessibility of the product for those with a disability such as dexterity impairments, and even helpful for those without as it provides more of a grip on the Tamagotchi. You can order one here.
