Tamagotchi Music Star

From Tamagotchi Wikia

Tamagotchi Music Star (billed as the Tamagotchi Connection Version 6 or V6 in the Asia/Oceania/Australia region) is a Tamagotchi released on November 28 in North America, in Europe in January 2009, and in Asia/Oceania/Australia in February 2009.

[edit] Design

The Music Star features a 48x31 screen, similar to the one introduced on the Tamagotchi Connection Version 5, but the shell does not feature an antenna, much like the Tamagotchi Connection and Tamagotchi Connection Version 2. Twelve designs are available in the USA, and 6 in the Asia/Oceania/Australia. The European designs are identical but with minor differences, and an exclusive Pink Glitter design is only available in Argos.

[edit] Features

[edit] Music Career

The Tamagotchi starts off with an instrument, toy, and some money. At the child stage, the Tamagotchi goes to preschool and receives a new toy. At the teen stage, they go to the Gotchi Performing Arts School (GPAS) and join a band with two other characters. The new band is taught by Classictchi until the band members reach adulthood.

As adults, they perform in front of a panel of judges. If any judge votes "no", the band can only do street performances until their next attempt. If the judges all vote "yes", the band debuts as a professional band.

[edit] Foods and Items

There are 40 possible items, 2 of which can only be unlocked online. There is a total of 60 food items: 2 which the user always has, and 58 more (29 meals and 29 snacks) that can be purchased at the Shop. At the teen stage onward, the standard meal and snack will no longer raise hearts, forcing the user to buy food as it grows older.

[edit] Instruments and Toys

On screen, there are always two items present: an instrument on the right of the screen, and a toy on the left. Every 15 minutes, the Tamagotchi will use either of these; instruments will raise skill points but raise stress, and toys will lower stress but raise no skill points and furthermore, the Tamagotchi may be more inclined to play than to practice music. There are 24 toys and 20 instruments.

[edit] Games

There are several games; 3 are always available, one available only during the child stage, 1 only available at the teen stage, and 3 more available at the adult and senior stages.

[edit] Standard Games

Standard games can always be played with your Tamagotchi, no matter what stage or weight. They will raise happiness and skill points, but no money is earned from play.

  • Sing A Song - This game will raise the Tone skill. Music notes are played, and the player must repeat the tune using the corresponding buttons for each note. There are 10 rounds, and songs get progressively more difficult.
  • Music Notes - This game will raise the Rhythm skill. Music notes fall from the top of the screen, and the player must play the correct notes to make them vanish before they pass a line near the bottom of the screen. The player must scroll through notes using the A button, and select the specific note using B. The game is over after reaching 100 points.
  • Sound Block - This game will raise the Original skill. Blocks appear on screen, and the Tamagotchi must jump on them as they appear and vanish in order to reach the goal block and progress to the next round. Blocks have numbers on them, counting down from 3 to 1, and vanish after 1. There are 6 rounds total.

[edit] Special Games

These are games that only appear using the "Away" function during certain stages of growth. The first three games randomly raise skill points.

  • Jump-Rope - This game is only available to Child stage characters. The player's Tamagotchi and another child will play jump rope until one child loses. To jump, press the A button.
  • Music Lessons - This game is only available to Teen stage characters. After forming a band, the Tamagotchi and its band members will practice with their instruments. When a music note appears on top of one of the characters, press the corresponding button.
  • Music Studio - This game is only available to Adult and Senior stage characters. Three lines of notes appear above the screen, and the player must press the corresponding button (A for top row, B for middle, C for bottom) or buttons as they line up with the arrow. Missing 2 or more notes will end the game. The game goes on for 2 rounds.

The following games are only available to the Adult and Senior stage characters and do not earn skill points. However, they increase happiness and earn money.

  • Cake Shop - A cake appears on the right side of the screen, and the player must grab the cake with a grabber when it appears. A line of different cakes appear on the bottom of the screen, scrolling from right to left. Press A to speed up the line, and press B to activate the claw. Collecting 16 cakes counts as a perfect game.
  • Fruit Harvest - A box appears on the bottom of the screen, showing a variety of food. Meanwhile, food will fall from the top of the screen. The player must move the boxes below to line up with the corresponding food as it falls. The A buttom will move the boxes left, and C will move them right. A score of 100 points counts as a perfect game.

[edit] Glitches

A user of Tamagotchi Wikia has found a glitch, where when your Tamagotchi and it's band didn't get a record deal, they'll go back to school, and the bandmates will change into different characters. The user's Tamagotchi had a Kuromametchi in it's band, then it changed to a Simasimatchi. And the other Tamagotchi had a Mimitchi and a Dorotchi, who changed to a Violetchi and Togetchi
