Nano x Star Wars: R2-D2 Tamagotchi, Hologram | Star Wars Tamagotchi 1.5 Inch Accessory Nano - R2-D2

For the people that might be reading reviews about the tiny size, or if you should spend $20 on this thing, I got to clear this up the informative way!! I'm a virtual pets nerd, so read on! Also the picture is boring I took, but you can see it from an angle. R2 is currently sleeping as I write this review. Ok here we go! I got mine recently and opened it up today. Unfortunately there seems to be a little scratch on the screen which I guess I'll return this and get another one. So far, it's been day one, and as a fan of virtual pets, I think any Star wars dork, and person that just likes virtual pets would absolutely love this because they already know it is a tamagotchi nano version. They already know what they're getting into. Tamagotchi nano series has smaller buttons, lower frequency of care needed, an egg-shaped design, and it's just smaller in general. It seems that when tamagotchi merges with another big company they tend to do it with the nano devices. The regular tamagotchi is what people are used to. But when you look into it, the nano series is also its own thing entirely. Nintendo collaborated with Pikachu and Eevee, obviously Star wars, Pac-Man, and I'm sure there's like some Japanese one that I forgot. I hope it clears up any frustration from other reviewers that say this thing is too small. Tamagotchi just has a much more diverse ecosystem that you might have never known of. If you want to check it out, there's at least the tamagotchi mini, the tamagotchi nano, the regular tamagotchi, that most retro people will know. The nano series has a special place in most people's hearts that love virtual pets. Which if you are a dork like me, and you don't have the Pac-Man one, I HIGHLY recommend it. It was really fun! So far this R2 is worth $20 to me. The sounds are a big sell to me. The bleeps and bloops make it adorable. You just have to understand that there is a whole different series of various models of tamagotchi. If you think the nano is small, check out the mini series. Even smaller. And I love the mini. It's very simple. Think Ages 4-7? The nano is the in between series. 7-12. The regular tamagotchi is 13 and up to understand them. The newer ones with color screens and cameras are intense to say the least with what you can do. If you have a busy life as an adult and can't take care of the demands of a regular tamagotchi, have a kid who's like 6 and up, and / or obviously love the Star wars series, it will add a smile to your day, and that's what matters most to me. I hope that helps clear up confusion on size, expectation, and general feel for the software experience. 👍🏻

Despite its small size, this little virtual pet game system is filled with fun! R2-D2 grows and changes based on how you take care of him. Not too much care is needed and taking care of R2 isn't annoying. The chirps, beeps, and whistles that R2 makes are cute but don't sound quite like the R2-D2 from the movies. The buttons are a little hard to press and the screen can be hard to see at times, but once you get the hang of the buttons and view the screen under a decent amount of light, it isn't too bad. The screen does NOT have its own backlight, meaning the screen itself does not light up, but as long as the screen is under enough light, the play experience can be enjoyable. This system cannot be turned off without removing the batteries, but you can mute it at any time by holding down the first and third button (buttons A and C) at the same time, which is quite nice to prevent random unwanted beeping from R2. The little game will sometimes surprise you with unexpected character appearances, which is fun. Great for kids, teens, and even adults! Can be enjoyed by men and women, boys and girls who love Star Wars and virtual pets. Wonderful gift! Thanks for reading. May God bless you. Jesus Christ loves you! You are precious and you matter! Have a great day.

He is my new son. And when the Jawas took him away I had to do it all again. My heart has been torn from my chest. I yearn for my R2 unit to return, but the new one will never be the same :,,,( I thoroughly enjoy this toy, the price is a tad steep when I consider the technology it must actually take to work, but I love the beeping sounds it makes, sounds like a gentle ringtone, and the minigames are kind of fun once you learn them. The Key Unlock minigame was the hardest I played and took about a dozen tries to finally get 5 in a row. Love this.

If you're a fan of Star Wars and the classic Tamagotchi, then you'll love Bandai America's R2-D2 Tamagotchi. This little device will steal your heart and keep you entertained for hours on end. First off, the design of this Tamagotchi is absolutely adorable. The R2-D2 figure is a perfect representation of the beloved droid from the Star Wars franchise. The attention to detail is impressive, from the blue and white color scheme to the intricate buttons and screen. The gameplay is simple and straightforward. Your task is to take care of your R2-D2 Tamagotchi by feeding it, playing games with it, and keeping it clean. You'll also need to monitor its health and happiness levels, and give it occasional maintenance check-ups to ensure it stays in tip-top shape. One of the best parts about this Tamagotchi is the variety of mini-games available. You can play games like asteroid blasting, racing, and memory matching. These games are a fun way to bond with your R2-D2 and earn points to unlock new features and items. Another great feature is the ability to connect with other Tamagotchi devices. You can exchange gifts, play games together, and even breed your Tamagotchis to create new generations. The social aspect of this Tamagotchi adds a whole new level of fun and interaction. Overall, I highly recommend the Bandai America R2-D2 Tamagotchi to any Star Wars or Tamagotchi fan. It's a perfect combination of two beloved franchises that will provide hours of entertainment and companionship. May the force be with you and your new digital droid friend!

I bought it for my nephew for his birthday. He loves if thinks it great. When I opened it to wrap it I was in shock when I seen how small it was. As someone who was a kid when tamagotchi was super big I know the right size for them. This R2-D2 tamagotchi is so tiny. That’s what I didn’t like. The size to small and for the price was not a fan but like I said it was a gift. My nephew enjoys it. Shows me how far it’s got with it. Just the size coulda been a little bigger for it. The screen is way to small I think even for a kid.

This is super great and our littles love it. When do we get a C3P0 or BB-8?!

I was recently feeling nostalgic for my old '90s Tamagotchi, and when I went looking online for one, I discovered new Tamas exist and promptly ordered a few (in addition to replacing my old one with another original of the same color for nostalgia's sake). I got R2 a few days ago and took good care of R2 for his life cycle (3 days), and I was pretty happy with him, but I am really annoyed that it just reset itself at the end. It was only a few minutes after the last time I tended to R2, and I was at my desk with my headphones on while working. As soon as I realized he was beeping, I looked at him and saw the screen fading from black, and a new/unevolved R2 appeared on my screen. So my R2 ended and reset without me even getting a chance to see the ending screen or getting a choice about whether I was ready to begin again. (At least I assume that is what happened since it was about time for his life cycle to end.) I wanted to take a break between life cycles. I'm not sure if this was a fluke/a glitch or if this is really how these new Tamas are designed to end, but I am annoyed that I was deprived of seeing an ending and that I had no way to just leave it alone for a while on an ending screen to take a break before resetting him. (I'm going to see if it works to take a break by leaving him in clock-set mode.) Maybe it's possible he got kidnapped and carried away by Jawas or something, but again, it should have some sort of ending screen remain on the screen until I reset it. I got zero indication of what had happened. Now for my review other than the annoying ending (or lack thereof). R2 and his little beeps are quite cute. The mini-games are pretty fun, especially playing chess with Chewie. You'll unlock additional games a couple of times when he evolves throughout his life cycle. R2 doesn't seem to require much care compared to some other virtual pets. There's no meter to check on how charged he is or how happy he is, so it's unclear how often you should play with him. I played with him often to be safe. He often said no to me charging him, so he doesn't need charging particularly often. It does indicate visually when he needs to be cleaned. I sort of wish there was a little more to it, but he's still a fun little Tama and enjoyable for Star Wars fans. It's fun to see the various Star Wars characters and scenes that pop up at different times of the day. It's also nice that you can alternate between playing a few games with him instead of only getting one game like with classic Tamas. Lots of people comment about the size. It should be obvious before purchasing that this isn't a classic-style Tamagotchi. This is a nano (my first nano). Do a little reading, folks! Takes a few minutes to research Tamagotchi types. I do prefer the classic size and shape, but I don't mind this one. It's pretty cute. It's not quite as tall or wide as original Tamas, but it is rounder/thicker. I'm including a photo for size comparison. Two stars subtracted mainly due to the ending issue, plus I wish there was some sort of status meter to see what he needs and to have an idea of how often you should play games with him. Editing to add later: can confirm after running him multiple times that he simply resets himself every time his life cycle ends. No ending screen, nothing.

Cutest thing ever for that teen that’s hard to shop for, if you’re a Starwars family (and if not, you low key- might need to look into that lol) Works well simple buttons to learn but can do a lot. Good long lasting battery and fits in everything.

Mesmo sendo da franquia Star Wars, chato e com poucas funções.

Offert il y a 6 mois à mon fils de 8 ans qui voulait un Tamagotchi. Ce modèle est plus petit qu'un Tamagotchi normal. La description dit qu'il y a plusieurs jeux, la plupart de ceux auxquels on a eu accès ne sont vraiment pas terribles : appuyer 15 fois d'affilée sur 1 des boutons pour voir une image changer. Le personnage de r2d2 est censé évoluer de beaucoup de différentes manières et donner accès à plusieurs jeux selon la façon dont on s'en occupe mais en réalité on tourne sur 2 évolutions seulement depuis le début et 6 jeux différents. Sur ces 6 jeux, 2 seulement peuvent vaguement porter le nom de "jeux". Soit ce Tamagotchi est défectueux et ne fonctionne pas comme prévu sur la notice, soit c'est juste un jouet pas terrible dans l'ensemble.

He’s pretty awesome! He beeps to let you know he needs you but if you want you can turn off his sounds. He shifts and “evolves” changing forms and sometimes joining a fighter! You get to take care of him and there are a couple games you can play with him. He’s honestly more entertaining than I thought he would be.

My Young nephew loves it, apparently Tamagotchi are back in vogue:)

かわいい。 ぶら下げておくだけでも周りから気にされる(笑) ミニゲームも好き。
