Tama Arena

The Tama Arena is a location within the Tamaverse that appeared on the Tamagotchi Uni.

Function

The Tama Arena is where the user's Tamagotchi can participate in limited time game events where they can compete against other Tamagotchi for rewards. The game is updated monthly and can only be played once a day. The user must choose a team and the winning team will get a grand prize of 5000 gotchi points. The user additionally gets a prize for participating, with what it is dependent on how many days they've played. As of NYANOE ♪ DANCE, multiple prizes can be won the more days the user plays.

After an event ends and the results are announced, the user must return to the Tama Arena to claim their prize. If another event starts before the user returns, the previous event prizes will be unable to be claimed.

List of Games

During the countdown, the user would have to press A as fast as possible to fill up the boost bar at the bottom of the screen. Once the race started, holding the B button would build up a speed meter at the top of the screen, but holding it while full for too long would burn out the vehicle, emptying the bar fully and dropping all speed gained to have to be risen again. The user would also have to shake the device to jump over hurdles and catch stars for a speed boost. Finally, when a cut in the animation occurred, the user would have to rapidly press A to dash ahead quickly.
  • Tama Bobsled (January 15th to 22nd, 2024): The teams were Ski and Skate, with Ski winning 302-298. The user's Tamagotchi would race against other Tamagotchis in a bobsled. The game was a reskin of Tama Racing, having the same gameplay and controls.

Pressing A would move them left and pressing B would move them right. There were a variety of platforms, including wide, small, single-use bubbles and moving UFO platforms that the Tamagotchi could land and jump off from.

The user would water a tree, tilting the device to aim the crosshair over an open mouth and pressing B to shoot a burst of water. The small faces could be watered once while the big face needed watering 5 times. After using 15 shots, the user would have to flick the device upwards to refill the water gun.

The user would have to push the buttons at the right time as the notes moved down, with the A button corresponding to notes on the pink lane, B button for the blue lane and the C button for the yellow lane respectively. For longer notes, the user would need to hold the button and then let go as the note reaches the end. At the end of the game, Nyanoe would vomit the color of the winning team.
  • NYANOE ♪ DANCE Encore (February 22nd to 29th, 2024): The same game was rerun with the same teams, theme, and gameplay with only the prizes being different. Mouse had won 267-333.

There were also bonuses in the form of a gingerbread man, granting temporary invincibility to obstacles, and White Tamas that gave extra points.

  • Wave Riding🌞 (July 26th to August 2nd, 2024): The teams were Macaron and Éclair, with Éclair winning 270-330. The user would steer the Tamagotchi across the waves by holding the A button to go up and releasing it to go down, building momentum and avoiding red flags to make it as far as possible in Tama m before time runs out. There were also yellow flags the user had to jump over by shaking the device.
  • Tama Fencing (August 9th to 16th, 2024): The teams were Pot-au-feu and Quiche. with Quiche winning 296-304. Icons showing "A", "B" and "C" will show up on the screen at random intervals, and the user must press the corresponding button to attack the fencing dummy. The colors and positioning of the buttons will switch up to try and confuse the user, but they must hit the button that corresponds with the letter. If the wrong button is pressed or the user waits too long to react, the dummy will attack the user's Tamagotchi, stunning them for a few seconds.
  • 51 Tama m Hurdles (August 28th to September 4th, 2024): The teams were Team 5 and Team 1, with Team 1 winning 296-304. The Tamagotchi competes in a race against two other Tamagotchis while jumping hurdles.

Trivia

• Once the user chooses a team for a competition event at the Tama Arena, the Tamagotchi's outline color will change to reflect the team color. This outline color will stay until the user chooses another team for the next Tama Arena event.
• White Tamas have unique dialogue if the user starts a Tama Arena game, but loses connection or resets the Uni while it plays. If the user returns to the arena the same day, the White Tama will doubt the user lost connection (implying they reset the Uni on purpose), but let them play the Arena game again without any consequences.
• The music used for NYANOE ♪ DANCE is an excerpt from the song "Namida-kun, good morning today too", sung by ano. The music video for the song features a rat character whose backpack resembles a purple Tamagotchi Uni and Nyanoe themself.
• During the run of Bunny Jump Returns, the Uni servers were overloaded and users were unable to download the data to play the arena game for 3 days. As a consolation prize, the UFO Balloon was given out as a download gift (regardless if the user participated in the game) along with 3000 gotchi points.
