Bandai Tamagotchi Uni

Tamagotchi is a world-renowned handheld digital pet created by Bandai, first launched in Japan in 1996. The brand quickly became a global cultural phenomenon, representing one of the most successful toy trends of the late 1990s and early 2000s. The 'Tamagotchi Uni' is a modern iteration that includes Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing users to connect to a global metaverse known as the Tamaverse.

While the brand originated in Japan, the manufacturing of these electronic devices primarily takes place in China to leverage large-scale electronics manufacturing hubs. The brand is owned and managed by Bandai Namco Holdings, which was formed through the 2005 merger of Bandai and Namco. Bandai Namco remains the ultimate owner and is headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, Japan. The company continues to evolve the brand for new generations while maintaining its nostalgic appeal for older fans.
