Old Meets New: Keitama 20th Anniversary Retrofit
A bit late to post, but yes, I did get the new 20th Anniversary Connection. I imported the clear retro shell from the US, but I got caught up in thinking about all the mods I wanted to put in it and ultimately forgot to play with it.
I'm all about seeing which pieces of past Tamas go together, and I happened to pick up a complete Blue Yukata Keitama semi-recently...so, I kit-bashed.
As you can see they look pretty similar in terms of construction. We can admire some of the changes made, like making the infrared unit much more compact as well as moving the loop for the jump ring exclusively to one side of the shell for increased strength. The springs on the speaker sound kind of bad as they scream like the Original, but such is life! I am personally bummed about the change from the thinner, harder screws to the super soft fat ones they use on the Originals. Seriously am I the only one who's stripped a ton of those?
Luckily, proportions for the screen and buttons are exactly the same. However, you need to file/sand/cut away 3 specific locations on the old Connection shell in order to get the new components to fit: above the screen, on top of the unit beneath the infrared cover, and the top part of the inside of battery case. On an opaque shell these modifications won't be visible so you can be messy, but be very cautious with a clear shell.
The hardest part of the mod, hands-down, is positioning the chip. While the number is the same, the position of the screw holes varies slightly between both models. You WILL have to drill holes in the chip and it WILL get dangerously close to the screen contacts. BE CAREFUL.
I had a really hard time getting the contacts aligned properly...I think I took it apart at least 10 times due to icons and strips of pixels going absent. The alignment above is when I finally got it working!
Anyway put it all back together (making sure you keep the new screen with the new chip as they're not cross-compatible) and tadah! Retrofit complete.
I don't particularly recommend this mod because of permanent alterations to both the chip and the shell, plus the screen/chip realignment process is horrendous. The speaker was also difficult to dislodge on both units resulting in stress lines on the now weakened plastic. If I were to do it again I would unsolder the wires on the original Keitama speaker or even ditch the springs on the new chip and wire the speaker in so it sounds better.
I suppose the most important takeaway here is that, with some elbow grease, it can be done!
Now can someone lend me their Otokitchi so I can ditch this geezer?

Since you've already made guides to the connections and the Keitama, when the new connection comes out, will you ever make a comparison guide between the originals and the new one? One difference that I've noticed from watching gameplay videos is that on the new one they'll do the "facing back" animation (which normally the teen characters do when they need to be praised) when their hearts are empty.
Maybe! I probably will if I have time.

Bandai Japan Announces Kei-Tama & En-Tama Tamagotchi Smart TamaSma Cards
Throwback! The 25th anniversary celebration is still going! Bandai Japan has announced two TamaSma cards that are a true throwback! The Kei-Tama and En-Tama TamaSma cards will take you back more simple times. These two TamaSma cards will be sold as a set, and they will be exclusive to Bandai Premium Japan. The set is designed after four Tamagotchi models these are Keitai Tamagotchi Plus, the Keitai Tamagotchi Plus Akai, the Chou Jinsei Enjoi Tamagotchi Plus, and the Ura Jinsei Enjoi Tamagotchi Plus.
Not much information has been released, but we do know that the set includes a pack of eight stickers featuring various characters from the era of the releases mentioned above, we’ve taken a deeper look at the images provided, and here’s what we’ve found.
Characters on the Kei-Tama TamaSma card include Wooltchi, Dorothy, Debatchi, and Ribotchi. Characters on the En-Tama TamaSma card include Togetchi, ShimaShimatchi, Maidtchi, and Bra Mametchi. The items on both TamaSma cards will be from the era as well, a lot of these items are bringing back TamaTown memories. The wallpapers seem to have some nostalgia as well, including a pixel based watch face. We’re so excited to also see a Ura TamaTown watch face, and a mini game with Ms. Frill!
The set will be released in November of 2022, but no exact date has been provided yet. Preorders are available on Bandai Premium Japan at ¥3,960 and will close on August 28th, 2022. This is a super cute TamaSma card that will definitely bring back the nostalgia and we’re all about that!
