Tamagotchi Adventures 3

Tamagotchi Adventures 3 is a 2016 3D (2.5D in the 3DS version) platformer developed by Dimps (Retro Studios for the 3DS) and published by Bandai Namco that was released for the Nintendo Wii U and 3DS. 
It's the sequel of Tamagotchi Adventures 2. 
During it's reveal trailer at E3 2015, it was one of the few Nintendo games that was received positively. However, as time passed, popular opinion decreased on the game. And when the game was released, it was received negatively by critics and fans. Despite all of this, many Tamagotchi fans consider it as "underrated and panned unfairly". The Nintendo 3DS version is still considered lame by many.
== Gameplay ==
In the Wii U version, the game is a 3D platformer (with some 2D sections) where the player controls Mametchi, Lovelitchi, Kuchipatchi or Memetchi in a series of levels filled with obstacles and collectibles such as Gotchi-Coins, Ruby Medals, a Tamagotchi device that grants one extra life, etc. The player starts the game with six lives and 5 hitpoints. There are 8 worlds, each one having 6, 7, or 8 levels (the third or fourth level being a mid-boss fight and the last one being a boss fight). Some levels require a minimum amount of Ruby Medals to be unlocked (there are 5 in total, 4 are found in the levels themselves, but the fifth one can only be obtained if the player gets a rank of 3 or more stars). 
In the 3DS version, the game is a 2D platformer and side-scroller with (almost) the same characters, collectibles and obstacles as the Wii U version. The player starts the game with three lives and 5 hitpoints. There are 8 worlds, each one having 5 levels (only the last level has a boss fight). Instead of 5, there are 4 Ruby Medals in each level in the game. 
The core gameplay is that in each level, there are Dark Orbs that can be collected by the player, which fills the Dark-o-Meter, allowing the player to use various attacks and moves (called Dark Moves) that Darkness normally uses. 
When finishing a level, a rank (represented by stars) is given to the player, ranging from zero stars to four stars. The number of stars depends on how well the player performed in a particular level. 
== Plot ==
In the Cave of Doom, lies Darkness (being supposedly dead after the Time Machine incident). Spacytchi and his brothers (after hearing various myths about him) decide to go there to extract his powers (using the Power Stealer) to conquer all of Tamagotchi Planet. However, they didn't knew that Darkness was still alive, but, after losing his powers, all he could see was the Spacy Brothers causing total mischief in Tamagotchi Planet. Meanwhile, Mametchi and his friends (after seeing Tamagotchi Town on siege) decide to go on another journey to stop Spacytchi's evil plans with the unexpected help of Darkness, which enters the Tama-Friends' bodies, which makes them acquire new abilities.
