Tamagotchi Original P1/P2 Red Bandai 1997

Discover Vintage Tamagotchis P1 & P2 – The Original Classics

Step back into the nostalgic world of Vintage Tamagotchis P1 and P2, the true pioneers of virtual pets that defined an entire generation. Released by Bandai in 1996 and 1997, these charming electronic companions captured hearts worldwide with their simple yet addictive gameplay and iconic three-button design.
Our exclusive collection of original Tamagotchis features the two legendary generations: the P1, the groundbreaking first release that started it all, and the P2, its direct successor with enhanced features. While the differences between the two are subtle—mainly in design and the birth/death screen animations—each has its own unique personality and timeless charm.
