The Morning After: A Tamagotchi made with real egg
It's Labor Day, so tech news typically slows down. We've still got some intriguing headlines to share, though, like, er, a new Tamagotchi. Bandai's newest digital pet is made with recycled eggshells. The Original Tamagotchi Celebration digital pet is even colored like a tan/brown egg, with green and white designs with pink accents and buttons.
In ways, it's a bit of a throwback compared to the recently released Tamagotchis. In May, the company re-released Tamagotchi Connection, the model with a faux antenna, to celebrate its 20th anniversary. Last year's Tamagotchi Uni had WiFi connectivity and gave users access to the Tamaverse.
This one is a little more basic, and it's available at Amazon, currently on pre-order for $30.
