'Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop,' or 'Tamagotchi no Puchi Puchi Omisecchi' in Japan, is a shop simulator game in which the player has to work in many different shops to earn Gotchi Points. Later in Japan, 'Tamagotchi no Puchi Puchi Omisecchi Gohi-kini' was released showing different shops and characters. There was a 'Home' or 'Care' mode where players could buy clothes and decorations for the Tamagotchi's home. These games differ from the Tamagotchi virtual pets in that players do not take care of the pets. The object of the game was to make all your shops royal. The Princess must visit your shops.
