Bandai Chisato Matsueda & Marika Katsuno Featuring on Weekend Game Camp by Shintaro Shimazu
Weekend Game Camp by Shintaro Shimazu is a radio station on InterFM897 broadcasting around Tokyo, Japan. Shintaro Shimazu is the main radio personality and he talks about video games that he loves. Shintaro also enjoys inviting the game designs who created them in every episode to learn more about the video games. How awesome is that?
In this recent episode broadcasted on May 4th, 2024 Shintaro invites Chisato Matsueda to join the show. Chisato is in charge of promotion of the Tamagotchi brand at Bandai, and Marika Katsuno who is in charge of planning and development of the Tamagotchi brand. The episode is really interesting as they discuss the different models, including the newest Tamagotchi Uni.
There is also a focus on the Tamagotchi Original, mentioning the release of the new shells from April 13th, 2024, and even showing off the Tamagotchi Original Y3K Celebration shell. We love how they mention that there is a big demand of Tamagotchi overseas, and how these shells were brought over to Japan recently.
There is also a giveaway being held where you can win a Tamagotchi Original, there is one Tamagotchi Original Celebration Y3K and four Tamagotchi Original shells in other designs that were released on April 13th, 2024 to win. Simply locate the contest post on Twitter, follow, and repost!
