Tamagotchi: The Movie - Mametchi's Big Adventure

Tamagotchi: The Movie - Mametchi's Big Adventure is a 2007/2008 2D platformer video game (based on the movie by the same name) developed and published by Bandai Namco that was released for the PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable and Nintendo Wii. It received negative reviews, journalists and players criticized the game for its short duration and lack of innovation. However, it was a commercial success in Japan, but not so much in the rest of the world.
== Gameplay ==
The game is a 2D platformer where the player controls Mametchi in a series of levels based on the events of the movie, along with some original events that expand the story.
The player starts the game with two lives (although technically three) and three hitpoints (only one in Hard Mode). Extra lifes can be gained by collecting 100 Gotchi-Coins or a Mametchi head. The maximum amount of lives the player can have is 10.
The player can attack enemies by jumping on them or by throwing wrenches, collectibles that are scattered around each level. 
The game can also be played with two players, with the second player controlling Tanpopo or Chamametchi. 
== Upgrades ==
When completing a certain level, the player is rewarded with a certain upgrade. 
*
* Metallic Propeller: When pressing the jump button in mid-air, Mametchi uses a metallic propeller to get a vertical air boost and fall slower.
* Mamesunnytchi: Mametchi's personal sun that follows him, attacks nearby enemies and lights up dark areas.
* More Tries: Increases the maximum amount of lives to 99.
== Power-ups ==
Unlike previous games, Power-ups can be bought in the shop that is located in the bottom right corner of the level selector. The player can only carry one power-up for a level.
* Heart Potion: Start the level with an extra hitpoint, but reduce the damage dealt to enemies
* Fire Potion: Wrenches can hit up to 3 enemies, but the recharge is slower
* Ice Potion: Wrenches travel faster and in a straight line and freezes enemies for 10 seconds, but these can't defeat them
* Telescope Potion: The player can control the angle that the wrech travels before launching it, but at the cost of a slightly slower speed.

* PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 ports of the game were planned to be released in January 2008 in Japan and Spring 2008 in the rest of the world. But these were scrapped due to the negative reviews of the game.
* In the Japanese and PAL version, the song that plays in the credits is Chiisana Hoshi no You ni (the same song that plays in the credits of the movie). However, in the NTSC version, the opening theme is played in the credits.
