...maybe not Zeeno...maybe not.

But yeah, maybe some combat would be nice. Not too Pokemon-ish, mayhaps something a little more original, like different challenges. Like, maybe a challenge that test the two tamagotchi's intelligence, another for their speech, their physical shape, and maybe some actual combat. Stuff that allow use of the touch screen and the microphone.
I don't want another Pokemon clone. We already have a DS Pokemon in the works.

I had one of those although it wasnt that brand but it was similar. Infact I remember it was a toy story version that my mom bought me at the Disney Store. You had to take care of one of those aliens in the movie. I played it for a whie...but them I just sort of let it die....
