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. The Tamagotchi Connection V2 was released in the US in 2005 as a sequel to the Tamagotchi Connection V1. It had the same basic features as the V1, but included more characters, different games, and a newly added shop.

​The original Tamagotchi was first introduced in Japan in 1996 and was a huge craze. It wasn't long before Bandai introduced it to Europe and North America where the craze grew further. By late 1998 and 1999, the fad has began to die out. Tamagotchi products became rarer to find until production was stopped altogether. Despite many fans pleading for Bandai to create a new Tamagotchi, they refused for years, until 2004 when they were reintroduced with many new features. They created hundreds of new characters as well as bringing some of the older ones back. These new and improved Tamagotchi were called 'The Tamagotchi Connection' in America, 'Tamagotchi Plus' in Japan and 'Tamagotchi Connexion' in the United Kingdom, and Europe. On this page you can find out all about the many different versions that have been released over the years. Even more information can be found on the Japaneses page of this site.

The Tamagotchi Connection Version 1 was first released on 15th August 2004, in North America and shortly after, in Europe as the Tamagotchi Connexion. It's known as the Tamagotchi Plus in Japan. It was the first modern Tamagotchi to include the concept of marriage and mating, which itself come from the Japanese language Osutchi and Mesutchi.
The V1 as it's commonly known is also the first Tamagotchi to use Infrared to connect to other Tamagotchi's in order to play games, and to build up friendships which can eventually lead into marriage and offspring. It was released with 9 adult characters, 4 teenagers, 2 toddlers and 2 babies, depending on the Tamagotchi's gender for a total of 17 characters.
The new Tamagotchi V1 has a larger screen than the vintages (pre 2004) releases before it, 32x30 rather than 32x16 pixels. It also has 10 icons instead of 8. The new icons that are included are:

• Communication - This icon is used to connect your Tamagotchi to others using the infrared. This is also how you can build up a relationship with a second Tamagotchi. You Tamagotchi can also receive gifts, which your Tamagotchi may then play with, or eat depending on what it is.
• Friends list - The ninth icon is how you view your friends list. Each Tamagotchi that you connect to will be recorded here, as will how close of friends you are.
