Supreme version
About the original
The Tamagotchi Original is a handheld digital pet designed by Aki Maita and Akihiro Yokoi and released by Bandai in Japan in November 1996, reaching the US the following May. The egg-shaped keychain runs a monochrome LCD pet simulation: feed it, clean it, play with it, or it dies. It sold over 82 million units worldwide during the late-1990s craze. Bandai was founded in Tokyo in 1950 and merged with Namco in 2005 to form Bandai Namco. The SS23 Supreme collab runs the original Gen 1 programming and gameplay in a box-logo shell, offered in three colorways at $48 each.
