There is also a 'v4.5' which is the same as the v4, but with different characters, games, and jobs. Tamagotchi is a word coming from the Japanese 'tamago' for egg and 'chi' meaning friend. It is a name given to an electronic device created for entertainment. It was developed in the early 1990s in Japan by two people from Bandai and quickly became a popular toy throughout the world in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
