The Tamagotchi Connection (UK: Tamagotchi Connexion) is a virtual pet in the Tamagotchi line of digital toys from Bandai. The Tamagotchi Connection is unique from prior models in that it uses infrared technology to connect and interact with other devices and was first released in 2004, 8 years after the first Tamagotchi toy. Using the device's infrared port, the virtual pet (referred to as a Tamagotchi) can make friends with other Tamagotchis, in addition to playing games, giving and receiving presents and having a baby.

Connection v5. Connection v6. The original Tamagotchi was first introduced in Japan in 1996 and was a huge craze. It wasn't long before Bandai introduced it to Europe and North America where the craze grew further. By late 1998 and 1999, the fad has began to die out. Tamagotchi products became rarer to find until production was stopped. The Tamagotchi (たまごっち, IPA: tamaɡotꜜtɕi) is a handheld digital pet, created in Japan by Akihiro Yokoi of WiZ and Aki Maita of Bandai.It was released by Bandai on November 23, 1996 in Japan and May 1, 1997 in the rest of the world, quickly becoming one.

This applies to versions 1 to 4 and 6 only. Version 5 introduces a Dating Show game in which the user must play to gain a CPU partner.
Versions[edit]
All Tamagotchi Devices are capable of connecting with each other; however, a character from a newer Version will show on an older version as the mystery character known as Nazotchi.
Tamagotchi Connection v2 (2004)[edit]
The Tamagotchi Connection v2 introduces 'Gotchi Points', an in-game currency used to buy shop items. Also, more games are unlocked as the Tamagotchi ages. It has 6 stages of life:

- Senior - Much like previous versions, the Senior life stage can only be achieved by refusing the matchmaker every time it appears.
The Tamagotchi Connection makes additional changes to gameplay instead of simply changing the games and other minor details. For example, the child and teenager can go to school and play mini-games, where an adult can get a job. Also, the 'Lamp' menu item (allows the user to turn the 'light' on or off) is no longer present. Instead, it is replaced with a 'Mail' menu item where the player can check for any mail they will occasionally receive.
New to the Tamagotchi Connection with the v4 is the ability for a child or teenager Tamagotchi to go to school and an adult to go to work. The player can choose which teacher they want once the Tamagotchi reaches the Teenage stage, and will train either 'Funny Points', 'Gorgeous Points' and 'Spiritual Points' through mini-games. The player also chooses what job an adult Tamagotchi gets and will unlock mini-games based on this choice.
Tamagotchi Connection v4.5[edit]
The Connection v4.5 makes minimal changes to gameplay from the v4, short of adding new games; however, the Tamagotchi is now able to collect 'Life Points'.

Tamagotchi Connection v5 Familitchi (2008)[edit]
The Tamagotchi Connection v5 is the English version of the FamiTama and is the first Tamagotchi to be exactly the same (besides language) worldwide since the Tamagotchi Plus. It was released in Asia on January 6, 2008 in Australia on January 10, 2008 and was released worldwide later in February 2008. The v5 introduces the ability to raise families, with 3-5 parents and kids. It also has a new website that it shares with the Famitama, the 'Tama and Earth Expo'. According to the package, 'The Tamagotchis set up this expo to learn more about Earth.' It contains a central pavilion and 4 other pavilions representing each of the main areas of the Earth. It also included a TV option where the player can use Gotchi Points to shop on the Shopping Channel, find a mate with the Dating Show, or go travelling on the Travelling Show which replaces the pause function of previous generations. There is a design flaw with the v5 which prevents it from properly connecting to the other Tamagotchis in the series.
Differences from previous versions:
- Individual Tamagotchis cannot be named. Instead, a family name is selected and individuals are identified by their character type.
- There is a family bond percentage
- The Discipline is replaced with a Play option.
- The Medicine chest is expanded to contain general items as well.
Life stages and games[edit]

Tamagotchi Connection v6 Music Star[edit]
The Tamagotchi Connection v6 is the final release in the Connection series and allows the Tamagotchi to become a pop star. As the Tamagotchi ages, it will learn a musical instrument and a band manager will come once the Tamagotchi reaches 5 in-game years of age.

The Tamagotchi v5 was the first connection toy to have more than 1 character being raised at once. This version is more family-centered, hence the slogan, 'We Are Familitchi!'
Most of the characters in the Tamagotchi! anime originated from the v5.
The v5 can only connect to v5s, v5.5s, Music Stars, and Tama-Gos.
The v5.5 was a continuation of the v5. It's family-centered as well, but has a celebrity touch to it. Characters on the v5.5 are celebrity-based. The games are celebrity based, as well.
The v5.5 can connect to v5s, Music Stars, and Tama-Gos.

♥Families!♥
As you probably know, the v5 and v5.5 have different types of families. The type of family you will have depends on your bond percentage and the type of characters you marry together.
Every 1st generation family is a blended family.
Types of Families
These are the type of families that you can have. There are nine in all.
Pure Families
There are four families that are referred to as 'Pure Families.' They are the Mame Family, the Meme Family, the Kuchipa Family, and the Violet Family. They are 'pure' because the mother and father of the family are the same type of character (for example, if a Mametchi and a Chantotchi get married (with 100% bondage level), they will become a Mame Family, since they are both Mame characters.)
Only Pure Families have pets. Pure Families also do something funny when you press the C Button!
Note: Marriages for Pure Families don't work backwards. For example, if you marry a Yonepatchi to a Kuchipatchi, you won't get a Kuchipa Family. You will get a Blended Family.

Tamagotchi Connection V5 Mame Family
Blended Family
Tamagotchi Connection V5 Mametchi
A blended family is a family in which the parents are either different types of characters, or you married the same type of characters wrong. Blended families are a great way to get a variety of characters that you can marry into Pure Families.
Ninja Family
Gozarutchi, Kunoitchi, Okugatatchi (Mother), Kasiratchi (Father)
If you have a Ninja Family, that means that the tama you raised was neglected (unhappy most of the time, missed attention calls.)
Large Family
Osumotchi (Son and Daughter), Metaboritchi (Mother and Father)
If you have a Large Family, that means that the tama you raised was fed too much food (bloated.)
Petite Family
Tamagotchi Website
Puchiputchi (Son and Daughter), Puchioyatchi (Mother and Father)
