I recently revived my old Tamagotchi Connection V1 toy (which I was certain had died from so many drops on its early years) by plucking the battery out of the Tamagotchi mini (which I still don’t like) but plan to revive anyway. Not only was it alive and kicking, it had retained its data since the last time it stopped working. As mentioned in a previous post, my tamagotchi never made it.

The Tamagotchi Connection (known as Tamagotchi Connexion in Europe and Tamagotchi Plus in Japan) was the first in a line of updated devices that featured an infrared port that allowed two units to communicate so that the characters could interact with one another. The V1 can be identified by a lack of any sort of antenna, however it is physically indistiguishable from the V2 aside from shell coloration. The Japanese Tamagotchi Plus was virtually identical to the English-language Connection/Connexion, so its shells are also featured on this page (denoted with a ). |

The Tamagotchi Connection V2 built upon the original Connection (Connexion/Plus) with the additional of the Gotchi Point system allowing you to purchase items in-game. Like the V1, the V2 lacks the antenna featured on the V3 through V5.5, so telling them apart at a glance can be tricky. |
