Quick Links
For plenty of prospective purchasers ofTamagotchi Plaza, the main appeal is through the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 game’s ability to link with Tamagotchi Uni, a popular current rendition of the franchise’s pet-raising portable history.
Hooking up your Tamagotchi Uni to Tamagotchi Plaza is a relatively painless endeavour, but you might know how to pull it off. Furthermore, perhaps you’re looking for information on why you might deign to do so in the first place! Either way, this quick guide will leap to the heart of the matter, so that you can begin reaping the rewards of dual Tamagotchi product ownership.
Why You Should Link Tamagotchi Uni To Tamagotchi Plaza
Linking Tamagotchi Uni and Tamagotchi Plaza is atwo-pronged value. Which is to say,you’ll get rewards on both sides of the equation.
Both Uni, your traditional Tamagotchi experience, and Plaza, your shiny Nintendo Switch video game, have some exclusive tidbits. If you’ve got both,there’s no good reason not to get started on the connection process.
The process, whenever performed, also nets youa special animation. It’s not much, but hey, it’s a cute little sequence that you can’t trigger otherwise!
The connection process isrepeatable, as it involvessending codes between devices.
Step One: Update Tamagotchi Uni To 2.4.0
If you’re reading this afterupgrading to 2.4.0(or later, but as of this writing, that’s the most recent version), then you can skip this step.
Otherwise, so long as you’reconnected to Wi-Fiwith your Tamagotchi Uni,you should see a “New” tag next to the “UPDATE” option on the main menu.
Even if, for some reason, the “New” tag isn’t next to it,you can always manually check for an update by clicking on “UPDATE"and choosing “Check”. Once the update process begins, it’s all rather standard stuff; just wait it out, and you’ll be good to go in due time.
Step Two: Play ‘Hand Out Flyers’
Now that you’re on Version 2.4.0 or higher,a new main menu option will appear: “PLAZA LINK”. Since some folks have a Tamagotchi Uni but aren’t familiar with the arrival of Tamagotchi Plaza, this may bewilder a few players. But yep, that’s what that’s for!
When you pick PLAZA LINK,an exclusive Tamagotchi Uni minigame will commence called ‘Hand Out Flyers’. You’ll do exactly as the name implies, butgoats will attempt to eat the flyers, because this is a Tamagotchi game, so of course there’s an odd and amusing wrinkle involved.
Step Three: Tour Code And Parting Code
After ‘Hand Out Flyers’ is finished, aTour Codewill appear on your Tamagotchi Uni’s screen. With Tamagotchi Plaza turned on,go to your smartphone in Plaza, and select the ‘Code’option in its menu.
Pick’Tamahiko Tour’, which will let youinput the Tour Code you’ve obtained. After the quick scene, aParting Codeis provided. Head back to your Tamagotchi Uni, and you caninput that Parting Code here.
That’s all it takes! It’s a bit of back-and-forth, but the rewards are worthwhile enough. And besides, if you’re a Tamagotchi fan to the extent that you won both an UniandPlaza, you probably want to make the most of that devotion!
