Tamagotchi: Tamagotchi Planet
built 644 days ago
The strong attachment that children often feel towards their pet Tamagotchi has lead to the creation of an Internet cemetery which allows the Tamagotchi to be buried when it 'dies'. This according to several psychologists is dangerous since it often means that children have to deal with the concept of death at a very young age. So serious is the situation that the manufacturers, Bandai, have had to change the illustration appearing on the Tamagotchi liquid crystal display screen when 'death' occurs. The initial Tamagotchi model showed a tomb followed by ghosts and angels. This has now been changed to a starry setting with an angel. Bandai plans to produce a third model in which the Tamagotchi character is seen flying back to its planet in a spaceship-like vehicle.

The Tamagotchi is just one way in which people are entering the world of virtual reality. Recently the japanese company Fujitsu, released a computer program called "Fin Fin on Teo the magic planet". This virtual reality game was a result of 8 years research into virtual reality computer programming costing approximately 30 million dollars. Such games allow players to enter new worlds and have experiences that are not possible in the real world perhaps providing the player with a means of escaping modern day problems. The appeal of such virtual reality games has increased with the introduction of human characters into virtual reality scenarios . Tomb Raider I, a virtual reality adventure game released by Eidos Interactive, uses a female heroine called Lara Croft to entice players. Lara Croft's appeal is based on a number of factors. Firstly, and perhaps most importantly, many virtual reality game enthusiasts find her physically attractive.

The video on the other hand feature the various minigames including: rock, paper, scissors; score a goal; UFO memory; meatball maker; and catch Blobtchi.
