How Many People Out There Own Virtual Pets?

Monster Rancher Metropolis: The Cafe: Town Hall (Polls): Polls on Other Subjects: How Many People Out There Own Virtual Pets?
By Lisa Shock on Saturday, June 17, 2000 - 12:12 pm:

Just curious to see if anyone out there also owned any virtual pets like tamagatchi, furby, or the computer sort like fin-fin...


By Kurasu Soratobu on Saturday, June 17, 2000 - 02:16 pm:

Two out of three. I do have a Furby (though it needs some repairwork or replacement, after getting moist). I also own a Tamagochi, though it's long since disappeared somewhere into the house. One day, I'll find it again!

I also have Pocketstation, and some of the games that it plays (or sub-games, as the case may be) are very virtual pet-like.


By Lisa Shock on Saturday, June 17, 2000 - 03:48 pm:

I've got a Poo-Chi right now, but it's pretty disappointing. I adopted an abused Furby for a few months, but gave it to a needy household. I am interested in getting one of the Yoda Interactives that's supposed to be shipping in July. The Gamestop has a description; it looks like it's a lot more 'interactive' than some pets. On the PC side of things, I've seen Fin'Fin, Creatures and the Catz/Dogz/Oddballz series. Perhaps the weirdest there was one (from the creators of Catz) called Babyz. Lots of little babies running around, very strange, I played it at a trade show last year.


By torey_luvullo on Saturday, June 17, 2000 - 03:59 pm:

we have, or have had, furby, tamgotchi, finfin, creatures at our household. none of them have had staying power.


By Lisa Shock on Saturday, June 17, 2000 - 04:56 pm:

That Seaman game for Dreamcast looks interesting. Those fish appear to have attitude!

I also own an account on neopets. Only one though.


By Draconic Leader on Tuesday, January 8, 2002 - 03:23 pm:

I have a long neglected account at Neopets. Poor poor BahamutAPOCALYPSE.


By Nick Papageorge on Tuesday, January 8, 2002 - 05:54 pm:

I had a neopet. His name was Drackenfire, a fire Shoyru. God, did I love that thing. Until, they removed my prized amusement park, "Drackenfire Gardens" with the enormous "Drackenfire" rollercoaster. There goes my savings. I'm trying to catch back up, but its getting tiresome. Maybe someday I'll win the Neo Lottery and want to play again...

This is a reply to: "I have a Neopet! Phoenix Masta out" Me too! Call me Meekins_r_cute. Thats my username on neopets :) (one painted pet, 1 level 8 pet) I have, (or had, lost from inactivity) 12 accounts! I also own Kyruggi on one of 'em! I still have only 5, but I lost the kyruggi account pass! My other accounts are neonatu, poogle_p_guild, (guild account, im the leader, 1 painted pet) poogle_food (Guild food store) neonatu, (first account, 2 painted pets, first pet was Gallithia, who is painted.)

(And if u could, please Neomail (Neopets) or E-mail me the tablet pass on Monster Rancher Advance for ANY monster that knows Light aura? I would like more than one if you can. Any amount of letters, preferably 6 or less. The prize is passes for monsters that know Dark Aura. And, stump me if you can with a question about rabbits. Only one person has ever stumped me! It was my Art Teacher. She said, "Why do they wiggle their noses so much?" The other prize for tellin me light aura passes is a pass for a monster that knows Hi-Power and a monster for iron heart)

By Medjai on Wednesday, March 20, 2002 - 07:46 pm:

I've got 3 furbies(one being Gizamo). Used to have 3 tamogatchis. Still have my black digivice. Also have a Godzilla tamogatchi.

This might not count but a demo for a PC Game called Blupi. You get to play God with these little yellow creatures. Very fun to play.


By Tajiri on Thursday, March 21, 2002 - 08:48 am:

I had 4 digimon that are out of batterys and i lost 3 of them eccept my yellow one that turns itself on every other day and maes a loud beeping noise, i also had a tomagotchi, i raised it to be a Bill Clinton(the secret evoloution) but it fell out of my pocket on the bus and i left it theere not till the bus turned the corner did i notice...

TAMAGOTCHI-{DECEASED}-I 'accidentally' droped it in the shower 4 years ago


By InfiniteJoker on Wednesday, May 22, 2002 - 04:01 am:

u shower with ur tamagotchi? *sigh* j-k. I had two giga pets, A t-rex, and a pocket pikachu.


By Flare Reiketsu on Wednesday, May 22, 2002 - 04:47 am:

No, I just killed it there. In case you didn't guess, that wasn't an accident. YOU associated with Pokemon, so I wouldn't talk if I were you.


By Flare Reiketsu on Wednesday, May 22, 2002 - 07:56 am:

Maybe this thread should stay down so it doesn't turn into a flame war


By ShadowFusion on Wednesday, May 22, 2002 - 02:02 pm:

I didn't notice this thread until now...and i can't help but laugh when i think of those tamagachi things. Mainly because my sister has/had literally like 30 of the things, and none of them work. When she got tired of one she would go out and get another, simply abandoning her previous one.

As for me, i had one like 5 years ago, but i found it boring, and i hated the noise it made. I gave it to my sister, and it undoubtedly is abandoned under a pile of clothes in her room.

Perhaps there should be electronic tamagachi shelters for stray and abandoned electronic pets...


By InfiniteJoker on Thursday, May 23, 2002 - 03:18 am:

I was only jokin, FR. Ahhhhh.... i remember my pokemon craze, its nothing to be ashamed of, I was only like 9 to 11 years old.


By Hare Raiser on Thursday, May 23, 2002 - 04:40 am:

I used to collect keychain pets. That's kind of how I got into MR. I don't really play with them anymore, but recently I found that my pet rabbits had gotten into my old collection and eaten all the buttons off them. (That's something rabbits do -- they like rubber buttons, like the kinds on remote controls -- who knows why?) I'm pretty bummed out about that. I had a Digimon (my husband did too), a Nano Bunny, several varieties of Tamagotchi, a Giga Pound (it's got several different dogs in it), and a bunch of weird cheap import stuff that appeared all over the stores when the fad was at its peak. It's all fun and colorful. I used to go buy a new one every couple weeks. :)


By terance on Thursday, May 23, 2002 - 06:28 am:

i have millons!?!?!?!?!?!(one time i got 10 in one day because big lots was having a blowout sale 2 4 a dolla!


By Plastic on Friday, May 24, 2002 - 06:48 pm:

One original digimon, plus the three games for PSX, I have a Furby I stole of the back of a truck, just to mutilate. I skinned it, and replaced it to look like an evil, uh, thing for fun. I had pokemon for gameboy (Not gameboy, color, not advance, not even pocket. I have a big grey original). I have an annoying ••• RoboDino thing that is somewhere, dead. I had an alien from AlienAA.com. Hell, I think thats it...

-Plastic


By Gizmo the Lemur on Sunday, December 29, 2002 - 02:44 pm:

I had a couple myself:
1 Dinky Dino
1 Digimon (The one based on the anime. Not the VP game)
1 Japanese virtual pet based on the 2 or 3 Mothra movies Toho made.

Sorry for the late post


By Mewger on Monday, December 30, 2002 - 10:29 am:

talking about neopets? I've got some, my account is arrlstop.
My favorite pet is aztenai.
And for virtual pets, I have Dogz 1-4
and Catz 2 and 4
I also had a Furby, but one of my friends threw it against the wall for revenge on me for something stupid...
It's dead now.
My favorite ones (the ones I still play with)
are the robot things from Sharper Image, I forgot what they were called, but they're cute!


By Travilin' Breeder on Sunday, February 16, 2003 - 08:20 am:

I had a Pikachu Pocket 1&2, a Tomagachi that i looked for all over Denver, Colorado to buy it (i have no clue where it is, and i think that some one had reset it before loosing it!) i have an original, square, purple Digimon thing that i look at periodically but don't touch. I have an account on Neopets, my name is either zach_lechler or centaur_king, i love getting neo mail!


By Coburn on Saturday, March 8, 2003 - 08:36 am:

I had one of those fish Tamagotchis, a Furby and my Pokemon craze lasted from ages 9 - 13. I still like the GameBoy games and would probably still like it if it wasn't for all the cheap hype that came out (and the TV series).


By Fir Dragon on Friday, June 20, 2003 - 09:05 am:

I had tamagotchies and sumpin that started with an n and neo sumpin or other. furbies too


By That Naga Chick on Sunday, July 20, 2003 - 12:45 am:

Dear lord, I'm a junkie. o.o;


By ChetFlavin on Sunday, July 20, 2003 - 02:14 pm:

Impossible Creatures (Beware the Insect Invasion), MonsterSeed, Jade Cocoon, Pokemon yellow and silver, and I guess I could count a chocobo from Final Fantasy 8 since I have the Pocket Station.


By CHB on Sunday, July 20, 2003 - 02:48 pm:

The only one I really enjoyed outside MR was Dragon Warrior Monster...


By Dragon Trainer on Monday, July 21, 2003 - 05:06 am:

Dragon Warrior Monster rocks.....
