Digimon handheld...or tamagachi???

I'm sure thousands of you remember back in the late 90's when the birth of handheld gaming came out... the tamagachi handheld device. Another item came out at nearly the same time.... The first digimon handheld game (based on adventure 01) released. Which did you buy, tamagachi or game? ( I'm not talking about the v-pet, I'm talking about the little device you had to shake endlessly for your digimon to "walk" around to defeat different enemy digimon as they came.)

I got a digimon device, since it made no special difference to me. Plus it turned out as an added bonus for me when all of my friends' pets died because they sucked at taking care of them, while mine was close to finishing off the game.:D:D

I had one of the original v-pets when they first came out. Then I got the Digivice when it was released (and another v-pet on clearance, since the first got lost somewhere). I like the originals better; the Digivice got a little boring for me but the originals have the added challenge of trying to raise every Digimon in the game, which is a little more involved than the Digivice was.

me and my brothers got a different color of all the digivices. Mine were always the red ones 'cause i'm obsessed with the color :rolleyes:

I got a tamagachi before anybody had heard of digimon (well, perhaps those with internet and if Youtube etc was around then) but later I got one of the digivices (blue I think).

I got a Tamagotchi and a few other Tama ripoffs about 4 months before my dad died in 1998, and then 1999 I got a Digimon V-Pet v1....it died and I threw it against the wall ;P It broke because of that, but umm...then I got a Digivice and it drove my mom crazy with the "Click-click-click"...then I got a D-3, and it also drove her crazy. Now I lost my D-3, but I have my Digivice. The Digivices bore me now though, I like the V-Pets a lot more.

Could your mom have been responsible for that?

I ended up buying both, when they were released. And I still buy the US releases of both Tamagotchi and Digimon, even though both lines' Japanese releases are far superior. I sometimes (Read - Most of the time) import Japanese Digivices, and have also imported a Japan only Tamagotchi School.

Wha...?
I wanted a digimon so much... it looked BAD ASS, but I already had a Giga Pet... and if I remember right, mom didn't want to deal with any more beeping, shrieking little virtual creatures that she had to feed while I was at school because they were banned.

I remember seeing it by the register at Family Toy Warehouse. It looked so cool... but I was never able to obtain one.

Ouch. The Giga Pets were, in my opinion, the worst of the three "major" brands of v-pets (Tamagotchi, Nano Pets, and the Giga Pets) from that time. >.<;; The Digimon pets are just more fun.
