Second proxy shopping order is in!! Maybe once my other Tamagotchi arrives later today (hopefully) I'll take a photo of all of my virtual pets. The Doritos shakers were a lot smaller than I expected and they do sort of sound like a bag of chips when I shake them.
Game Boy Color for scale. Also my cat is here? Cat for scale too.
@NovaSquirrel Gosh I wish those tiny pocket game consoles had taken off (Pokémon Mini, Sony Pocket Station, Dreamcast VMU). I love the form factor, and the interoperability with consoles, and the simplicity. And I just realized that's a Pocket Pikachu and not a Pokemon Mini lol.
You're making me want to get a virtual pet again. They're so cute.
@bunny_jane Yeah I love cute little devices with monochrome screens! I miss them, though I'm glad they're still around in the form of virtual pets.
I like the Pokémon Mini a lot! I really wanted one as a kid, but now that I have money they're expensive enough that I'm not sure I'd want to pay that much to play games that simple. Thankfully the Pocket Station and VMU are still really affordable if I wanna get those eventually!
And yeah I encourage playing around virtual pets hehe. I've found it kind of nice to have something I can idly watch and take care of during work, like a little plant but cuter.
