From Tamagochi To Pet Society, latest craze of virtual pets that took loners and couch potatoes by storm. I was hooked by these two fads in the late 90's and 2008. Tamagochi and the Pet Society has the same purpose...
*** To be a virtual friend and companion
*** To feed them with food or snack
*** Playing games
*** Cleaning and bathing
*** Cuddling and loving
*** Connecting and visiting friends
History of these virtual pets...
The Tamagotchi (たまごっち) is a handheld digital pet created in 1996 by Aki Maita and sold by Bandai. Over 70 million Tamagotchis have been sold as of 2008.[1] The Tamagotchi is housed in a small and simple egg-shaped computer. And now, Tamagochi has been reinvented by colored LCD monitors and more.
The Pet Society is a Playfish London studio production that lets you create your own pet and interact with your friends via Playfish website or Facebook whether your in the airport waiting for your flight or just sitting at home.
The metamorphosis of these two virtual pets came along way, certainly you will not bring a live cat, dog or rabbit in your bag and do these messy stuff for it to be happy and to survive right? Now portability and virtuality came to reality.
Are you hooked already...I am... and I called my pet... Megawati...
