Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop: Game Guide, Developer and Facts

Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop is a shop simulator video game developed by NanaOn-Sha and published by Bandai and Atari for the Nintendo DS. Based on the Tamagotchi virtual pet, the game tasks the player with running stores with their chosen partner Tamagotchi, and serving customers by playing store-dependent minigames. The game released in Japan in 2005 and worldwide in 2006. In Europe and Australia, the game was titled Tamagotchi Connexion: Corner Shop. The game was developed by NanaOn-Sha, who had previously collaborated with Bandai. The idea for a shop-simulation game came from the then-commonly held aspiration of Japanese girls to become shopkeepers. The game received mixed reviews from critics, who praised the game's presentation but criticized the repetitiveness of the gameplay loop. Corner Shop sold 1.48 million copies worldwide, making it the 61st best selling Nintendo DS games of all time. It was the first 3rd party DS game to sell one million units. Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop spawned the Corner Shop series, which includes nine games to date. It was subsequently followed by Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 2 in 2006, and also received a Japan-only remake on the 3DS in 2012.
