Main article: Tamagotchi Connection Version 5 Celebrity/Item list

A variety of new items and food have been added, and unlike the V5 which simply showed the item or food itself centered on the screen, the V5.5 gives them all names akin to previous Connection versions. There are more training items added to help increase bonding as well.

Games[]

The Japanese version of the V5.5 has four games, only having two available for the first generation and the other two unlocking from the second generation onward as they require parents to play. The English version includes two new games and replaces one of the parent games with a different one. Any of the siblings can play games, with it no longer limited to the oldest child.

Each game rewards up to 700 Gotchi Points, but the first two/four games will also reward up to 4 Happy Hearts and the two parent games will reward Bonding.

  • Tama Fans: The character stands in the center of the screen, and becomes surrounded by a crowd of baby characters. Speech bubbles will appear, depicting either a fan letter, a pencil for an autograph, or a fly. When the letter or pencil bubbles appear, the user must press the A or B button depending on which side of the screen the bubble is on. They must avoid pressing either button when the fly bubble appears. They must reach 30 points to win.
  • Pool Play: The character stands on a diving board as a tube floats by in the pool. When the tube gets close enough, the user must press the B button to make the character jump to land on it. They must time it right before the tube is level with the diving board to land correctly, otherwise the Tamagotchi will fall in the water and lose the game. They must reach 20 points to win.
  • Tennis (English version only): The character stands on the left side of a tennis court. A ball will come towards the character from the other side, either bouncing up, down or in the middle. The user must hold the A or B buttons to move the Tamagotchi up or down respectively, then when the ball is close enough they must press the C button to hit the ball back to the other side. They must hit the ball back 20 times to win.
  • Safe Box (English version only): The character sits in front of a safe. Two numbers are shown above the safe, and the user must match the numbers on the safe to open it before the timer in the upper-right corner runs out. The user must press the A button to scroll the number on the left (loops up from 0 to 9) and the B button to scroll the number on the right (loops down from 9 to 0). When the combination matches the numbers above, they must press the C button to confirm. They must do this 3-4 times, then the safe will open and the timer will reset for the user to do again. They must open the safe 6 times to win, totaling 22 number combinations.
  • Cue Ball: This game is played along with the father. The Tamagotchi stands to the left of a pool table, holding a cue stick that moves away and towards a pool ball. The user must press B when the cue stick moves just slightly away from the ball to hit it so it goes in. They must reach 30 points to win, at which the final shot will go off screen, feigning a loss but then suddenly coming back and hitting the ball in. This game increases Bonding when completed.
  • Jewels: (English version only): This game is played along with the mother. The mother will present a table with four jewels, one of which will sparkle until the B button is pressed, then they will be shuffled around. The user must pick which of the jewels was the sparkling one by moving the arrow right with the A button and selecting with the B button. This goes on for 6 rounds, and the shuffling becomes faster and more abundant. This game increases Bonding when completed.
  • Mama's Song (Japanese version only): This game is played along with the mother. The mother will sing a line of a song, and the user must repeat it back using the corresponding buttons for each note. This game increases Bonding when completed.
