Tamagotchi, the virtual game of the 90s, is back in fashion

Tamagotchis, created by the Japanese company Bandai in 1996, are portable games that became a global phenomenon in the late 1990s.

On the eve of their 30th anniversary in 2026, Tamagotchi continue to be popular and are returning to the attention of people of all ages through relaunches, events, and special products.

From January 7 to February 2, 2026, the Roppongi Museum in Tokyo is hosting the official Tamagotchi 30th Anniversary Exhibition, where visitors can experience the history and evolution of this iconic virtual toy.

The exhibition displays not only classic devices, but also immersive installations that immerse visitors inside the world of Tamagotchi, exploring why these "digital friends" have created emotional connections with people.

Tamagotchis have surpassed 100 million units sold worldwide by 2025, showing that despite technological changes, these digital pets remain beloved by fans.

New launches include modern models with Wi-Fi and advanced features, such as Tamagotchi Uni or Tamagotchi Paradise, which offer a richer experience and online interactions between users and devices.
