Are they the same? Where can I order?
You'll be happy to know that these new Tamagotchis will function exactly like your original Tamagotchis did in their heyday. While the newer eggs being released next month are slightly smaller in size compared to the originals, the aliens that hatch out of them will be every bit as cute (and needy) as the ones you took care of in 1997.
Cost and Pre-Orders
We were also elated to learn that Bandai won't be charging an arm and a leg for these things, banking on their nostalgia to drive sales. The new Tamagotchis can be yours for about $15, and you can go ahead and pre-order one now ahead of the November 5 launch. They're still in stock and available at Amazon (link here).
We have a feeling that these are going to get harder to find as word spreads of the Tamagotchi's return. Come holiday season these will be the perfect affordable stocking-stuffer, so grab yours while you still can!
