The Squid V5 Log: Entry 131

Posted 03 March 2008 - 08:20 PM ( #131 )
Some of my thoughts on the Tama versions:

Quote
I remember just a few years ago, all the characters depended on care on the V1 and that's how you got your characters. I liked it how I got the really nice characters by just taking the time to work on my Tama's exercise. That was very easy. I just did two sets of "Dance" (I was never good at "Jump"), then I fail and my Tama had already lost about three pounds. Also, at that time, I had studied character charts and learned a few new strategies of the Tamagotchi. It was quite cool being a little 4th Grade Tama Wiseman (or wisewoman). People would always come up to me in the Fourth Grade and ask me questions like "How do you do this?", "What's my character?", "What's this?", "How do you get this character?", ect.

The V2 was cool. I never thought that at the beginning because the Tamagotchi fad just passed completely passed a few months ago. But I reactivated it when I was in the 5th grade and I enjoyed carrying around just that thing for a day. It was fun. It was also cool having an old guy at the age of 60-something on it. I find that very rewarding. I am also very careful around him because I want my V1 to marry him and he shall move on. But today, my V1 has had enough batteries so I figure I should just leave the V2 and V1 alone.

The V3 was a favorite of mine. I liked it very much and right next to the V1. I actually liked it a little better than the V1. But, yeah. It was always fun and it always was there in my 5th Grade Recess life. If we had recess indoors, I'd take it to TamaTown. If we had to go outside, no problem. The spring wind on my face and the Tama around my neck always felt good. And me and my two friends who had a V3 also would connect with me. It was always fun. Thinking about it, I wish I was back there. Light layers, Tama around my neck, recess, it all feels good.

Now the V4. Oh boy. After Kiki died, this was an automatic "least favorite version." I found this one difficult. I always hated the games. It was very hard to get my Tama to lose weight. I was also only able to get Social Points because I was only good at "Flag." The V4 was very stressful. But that doesn't stop me from liking it. I still like it. But next generation, if I don't get a girl, I AIN'T GETTING ANY SKILL POINTS! I WANNA UNIVERSAL CHARACTER! (Same thing about characters for 4.5 only opposite.)

Now for the V5. I like the V5. I love raising virtual pet families. Plus, I also get an extra week to say good-bye to the parents. I like it how it's back to the care gets you nice characters. And it's more of a surprise. My Tamas Selena and Miley became beautiful adults. They were a Watatchi and a Violetchi. They were very cute. I also liked Teenage Selena and the current Suki (Ichigotchis). I am going to try to get my friends hooked but there is possibly no future of that. Ah well. Next week I'll get my Lil' Bro a V5 for his B-Day on the 26th and HE'LL get hooked! Yay!

Well, those are my thoughts of the versions, but none will beat the V3. It will always be my favorite!
