Legacy
Although not as widely recognized as its handheld counterpart, this CD-ROM release contributed to the Tamagotchi legacy by bringing virtual pets to desktop computers. Reflecting the era’s technological limits and capacities, the game remains a nostalgic memory for players who experienced digital pet care during its heyday in the late 1990s.
