Version 3 (V3)

This was the version that got me back onto tamagotchis after a break of about 5 years. I woke up one morning with that urge that only tamagotchi owners have and looked on Amazon and saw that the V3 was the cheapest. The first one I got was red with blue stars, and is often referred to as just "red V3" in my logs. This V3 is also my tamagotchi connection that I refuse to use the matchmaker with. Instead, I'm always pausing it to raise a mate for it on my other tamas. Here's a photo!

Shortly after I ordered my red V3, I decided that I would need a mate, and I ordered this one!. These are currently the only V3's I own.

The V3's were the first tamagotchis to be able to visit tamatown rather primitively. They're also the first tamagotchis to feature an antenna, which I think looks a bit lame, but not as lame as in later generations. The V3 has a lot of character from the older, vintage tamas. Here's a link to a growth chart I DID NOT MAKE. One day, I'll get around to making my own, hopefully with full animations, but that would take A LOT of work. Here's the growth chart.
