Tamagotchi Gen 3

In mid-1998, a further revision of the original Tamagotchi, known in Japan as the More New Species Discovered!! Tamagotchi (もっと新種発見!!たまごっち Motto Shinshu Hakken!! Tamagotchi), was released worldwide by Bandai. Much like the Gen 2 before it, it contained an entirely new character lineup, in addition to a few minor additions. The packaging for the Gen 3 is magenta colored, and the background has pink and yellow zig-zags, with the icon rows being blue with pink and yellow triangles. The pet on the cover is Shirotchi, continuing the trend of "decently-cared" Tamagotchis appearing on the cover. The game on the Gen 3 is a "Letters game".
