In light of 2017 being the 20th anniversary of the virtual pet, toy maker Bandai America is launching a new Tamagotchi.

The new virtual pet toys are smaller than the original, but still feature the same egg shape, tiny LCD, and six different shell designs, each including six characters. The company is showing its fans a lot of love with this relaunch, even so far as that even the iconic packaging will be the same.

The 20th anniversary Tamagotchi’s are now currently available for pre-order at North American retailers and have a price tag of $14.99 (~Php800).
