Chou Jinsei Enjoi Tamagotchi Plus
From Tamagotchi Wikia
The Chou Jinsei Enjoi Tamagotchi Plus (or simply the Entama) is a Tamagotchi release that debuted in Japan on November 25, 2005. It was the first Tamagotchi release to include Internet functions, and includes a new shell design that features an antenna with a ball at the tip.
The Entama introduced the Skill Points (or GUTS Points) and Family (or Zoku) concepts, and included four character families: Mamezoku, Memezoku, Kuchizoku, and Hatenazoku. There are a total of 58 characters (42 basic characters; 3 secret characters; 3 oldies (plus Oyajitchi); and 10 Hatenazoku, also known as Call Dating Service characters).

[edit] New Features
One of the new features of the Entama is the "Cooking" Function (third option in the second icon). The food items are separate from the Meals and the Snacks. Also, the food items are separated into three groups, Intelligence or Mamezoku, Style or Memezoku and Kindness or Kuchizoku (In which Mamezoku can only cook Mamezoku items and so forth). Since there are no Hatenazoku food items, Hatenazoku are not able to cook.
The Entama has a somewhat different "ageing time" than the Connexion/Connection Tamagotchis. The Entamas take much longer to age to give time to raise Skill points (GUTS Points).
Unlike the Ver.1-3, the Entama is life-like. At age 1 after evolving into a toddler, the character gets into Pre-school (Ms. Frill (フリルせんせい). Then after graduating (after evolving again), the character will get a teacher (Mr. Turtlepedia, Ms. Flower (フラワせんせい)or Mr. Canvas (カンパスせんせい) for Elementary School. Unlike the Ver. 4 you are not able to choose the teacher. The teacher you get depends on your highest Skill point category. Everyday, the teacher will come and let the character choose one of three boxes that contains an icon (pencil for intelligence, Star for Style, and Flower for Kindness). If successful, the character will get 10 points for the icon category. Two days after the character evolves into an adult, it graduates and receives a mail for a job interview. If rejected, the character would then be given more chances.
There are 3 games on the Entama, each belonging to the groups. The first game is a card matching game, which increases the Intelligence category. The second game is a clothes-catching game (very similar to "Get ♫" on the Version 3). Playing this will increase your Style points. The third and last game is a hammer game, where you hit the triangle with a hammer to get the baby down which is stuck at the top.
There is also the CYOI Entama. It has all the functions as any Entama, the only difference is that it has three different games (Book Balancing, Eye glass matching, and Healing a Flower) and has "CYOI" on its beads rather than "TMGC".
Unlike the Connexion/Connection Tamagotchis, the Entama does not have a "Shop" feature. Instead a Street Vendor (Ojitchi) brings items for the character to buy. The Street Vendor only brings one item at a time and visits twice a day (11am and 5pm). The user is given a choice if he wants to buy the item that the Street Vendor brought or not. Alternatively, one can buy a Street Vendor Calling Item, which can be purchased in the TamaTama Market on E-Tamago.
[edit] Removed Functions
The Entama is the first ever Tamagotchi to remove two of the original primary functions: the discipline and the light switch. The Entama will turn the lights off itself at the appropriate times. The standard discipline was changed to three disciplines- Intelligence, Style and Kindness.
[edit] Seasonal Animations
Sometimes the Entama shows the user's character next to an object or scenery. These are called Seasonal Animations. These happen every once in a while when the character is idle. When the user presses the (A) button on the Entama, the animation disappears but occurs again at another time.
List of Seasonal Animation:
- January 1 to 3- New Year Rice Cake Festival
- March 1 to 3- Doll Festival
- April 1 to 7- Cherry Blossom Viewing (Oyajitchi has a slightly different one)

[edit] List of Careers
The Entama characters are able to get jobs when they have graduated from their school. A letter comes in the mail and you are given a list of jobs and you may also see question marks (you will have to purchase certain job coupons to have these question marks become jobs). After selecting the job you wish to have, the Tamagotchi King's servants will interview the character, if the character passes, the Tamagotchi King will give the Tamagotchi an item related to the selected job. If the Tamagotchi was rejected, another letter with jobs will appear after a while. The jobs you are offered are GUTS points related, it means that whatever is the highest GUTS Points category you have; the jobs you are offered would be in that same category. Although the Entama has a job feature, it does not have a mini-game unlike the Ver. 4.

When the Tamagotchi first starts its job, it is ranked as a 1 star worker ( the rank can be viewed at the third status screen). Stars (ranks) affect how much you get for your salary. The Tamagotchi is able to have 3 stars maximum. To have 2 stars, the Tamagotchi must have done its job 100 times. To get 3 stars, the Tamagotchi must have done its job a total of 400 times.
Here is how the Ranks affect the Tamagotchi's salary:
- *- 1000 points per day
