Heres an excerpt:
Last year, Bandai localized Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop and released it to the US shores after it did absolute gangbusters in the Japanese market. Though they certainly love those virtual pets in Japan more than they do in this neck of the woods, Tamagotchi Connection did pretty darn well stateside, so much so that the company is currently working on bringing its sequel to the Nintendo DS this Christmas. Namco Bandai sent over an early version of the product so we can see where these critters are going for Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 2.
Anyone who is familiar with the original game will find themselves right at home in Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 2. The look, sound, and gameplay feel of the original has been extended by development team Dimps to incorporate different mini-game challenges without straying from the original Nana-on-sha design. Where the previous game revolved around your chosen Tamagotchi partner's run-in with his father to build up all the shops, in this one, you're performing tasks to impress the Princess, who will in turn upgrade the shop you're working in...if you manage to flatter her with your service, of course.
