Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 2
Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 2 is a 2006 shop simulation game developed by NanaOn-Sha and Dimps, and published by Namco Bandai Games and Atari for the Nintendo DS. The game is based on the virtual-pet toy, Tamagotchi, and tasks players with running shops and serving customers in different store-specific minigames. It is the sequel to Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop, and was followed by Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 3. The game was released in Japan and North America in 2006, and Europe and Australia in 2007.
The game is primarily a minigame collection, featuring twelve minigames themed around various shops that are played exclusively via the DS's touchscreen. An optional mode allows players to have basic interactions with their partner Tamagotchi, in a similar style to the toy line.
Corner Shop 2 received mixed reviews from critics, who praised the art style but criticized the repetitive nature of the minigames. As of 2023, the game had sold 1.09 million copies worldwide, making it the 71st best selling Nintendo DS games of all time.
The gameplay of Corner Shop 2 remains much the same as the original, with some new minigames added and quality of life improvements over the original. Unlike the Tamagotchi toy line, the main gameplay does not involve caring for a virtual pet, and instead players assume the role of store owner and serve customers through various minigames. The game starts with the player choosing a Tamagotchi partner to open a business with. After choosing a partner, the player purchases one of four available shops in Tama Mall and gets to work serving customers in shop-specific minigames. All minigames are played using the Nintendo DS touchscreen, with the top screen usually reserved for instructions and dialogue between your partner and the customer being served.
After serving customers, the player receives the in-game-currency, Gotchi, and is given a review. Gotchi can be used to purchase new shops and upgrade existing ones. There are four levels of expansions per business: Putchi, Metchi, Gotchi, and Royal. Shops start at Putchi rank, and players are tasked with upgrading all of their shops to their max level by serving more customers and earning more Gotchi. Progressing through the initial shops will unlock more, for a total of twelve shops available. Upgrading the shops unlocks more Tamagotchis available as customers, and makes the minigames slightly more difficult and complex. Three shops are carried-over from the first game, the florist, bakery, and concert hall. The minigames for these shops remain mostly the same with some additional features and improvements. In addition to touchscreen controls, the concert hall makes use of the DS' built-in microphone. New shops available include a gas station, sushi restaurant, health clinic, and a bowling alley. Players can also unlock two special "combo shops" that combine elements of existing shops: a sushi-bowling alley where sushi is placed on bowling lanes instead of pins, and a music clinic, where players heal customers with music.
Corner Shop 2 has an optional game mode that allows players to care for their partner Tamagotchi. Players can feed their Tamagotchi snacks and dress them. In addition to upgrading stores, Gotchi can be used to purchase snacks and cosmetics for the partner Tamagotchi, including home decorations and costumes. Additionally, Tamagotchi Connection V4 toys included passwords that could be inputted in Corner Shop 2 to unlock exclusive items.
The game features over 100 different Tamagotchi, the majority of which appear as customers. Many of the Tamagotchi characters that appear as customers from the first game return, as well as new characters from Tamagotchi Connection V4, Tamagotchi School, and Uratama. There are three partner Tamagotchi available, plus a forth available as a secret unlock after upgrading all the stores to their max "Royal" rank. New to the sequel, the game features a directory that shows all the Tamagotchi the player has encountered. The directory lets players see the Tamagotchi's name and how well they have served them in the past. After serving a customer, they will give a rating based on their happiness level, and their happiness determines future dialogue between them and the player's partner Tamagotchi. Additionally, customers who receive better service are more likely to return. Customers will also receive stamps on a loyalty card each time they visit a shop.
Players who own the game can also send a demo copy of the game to others via DS Download Play. Players could also trade items and screenshots over Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. In November 2006, players were also able to exchange Gotchi for exclusive items by visiting DS Download Stations in Japan.
