Does the screen stay on the Tamagotchi always? I notice I can switch the display to show my pet or the time clock but the screen never goes blank

yes! the screen stays on constantly, even when your tamagotchi dies the screen will stay on the dead pet until revived, leading you back to the egg screen and so forth. theres no real way to turn the screen “off”.

What type of batteries does it take?

Hello, These Tamagotchi's use a single 3v battery (CR2032). Thanks!

my tamagotchi came with no sound. waht i need to do? click a and c buttons don’t help me

孫のクリスマスプレゼントに買いました。取説が英語だったので最初驚きました。少なくとも購入する国の言語の取説は入れるべきだと思います。翻訳アプリで問題解決しましたが、これは残念でした。昔子供に買って今孫に買っているのを考えると凄いロング商品だと思いました。孫も楽しく遊んでいます。

I love my Tamagotchi so much!! I've been using this tama for about a week now and it's so good!! I am far from disappointed with this product and will definitely buy it again. It does require quite a bit of attention but it can be paused by going to change the time and leaving it there.

The Tamagotchi I got for my 6-year-old niece has been a huge hit! It's fun, easy for her to use, and teaches responsibility in a playful way. Highly recommended for young kids who love interactive toys!
