Tamagotchi Connection is an award winning virtual pet from Bandai. It features cute pets called Tamagotchi's which have to be cared for and looked after in order to remain healthy and thrive. This is a nice way for children to learn some responsibility while caring for their virtual pet, although one cannot replace reality with this virtual world!
