Of course we didn’t have iPhones then. We had a pet in a small box and it died if you didn’t press the buttons the right number of times every day.

I've recently been feeling nostalgic for Tamagochi. The Minigames were kind of fun, I think. At least I remember them positively, but that might be rose tinted, I was a primary schooler then haha.

And if you didn't have this tiny chirping pet, you were uncool! Very uncool and boring.

You could get one from KFC, but it was a GigaPet or something.

I was extremely extremely uncool, my parents hated going to fast food!

So did mine. They wouldn't buy a digipet thing for me, either. I had a beta named Frank. RIP Frank, you finally beat your reflection.
