Gameplay[edit]
GameVortex's review of Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 3. Imitation is truly the sincerest form of flattery. I could end the review right there and pretty much leave you with the overriding sentiment you'll garner from a play session with Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 3. It isn't evident immediately, so we'll come back to this. The Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop series debuted on the DS back in 2006. Now in its third installment, appropriately named Corner Shop 3 allows players to venture back into TamaTown.
The players can choose between Mametchi, Memetchi, Kuchipatchi and Violetchi to become a partner, and work together to keep their customers happy. The game is similar to the previous games, the main difference being a new variety of shops. The shops have been included in the following table:
- Daycare
- Bakery
- Gardening
- Card Shop
- Day Spa
- Decoration Day Spa
- Decoration Shop
- Event Coordinator
- Treasure Hunters
- Piano Studio
- Recycling Center
- Ice Cream Parlor
The shops also expand in the same way they did before in the other Tamagotchi Connection games. Except that the Mayor is the one doing the expanding and not the Princess, although once there can be no more expansions available the Princess does come and present you with a Royal Flag therefore making the shop the Royal Bakery, Day Care Center, etc.
Reception[edit]
Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 3 debuted on the Japanese sales charts at number four, selling 54,000 units in its first week.[1] The game managed to sell 204,744 units in the country by the end of 2007 right after Bandai and Namco Bandai Games called it 'GO-GO Tamagotchi!' .[2]
