The original Tama Town was created for the Version 3 Tamagotchi. It is not available to this day. When you receive an item, a 10-digit password appears and you enter it into the Tamagotchi. They have expanded the tamagotchi online worlds to most all versions(except v1 and v2), the music star is the most popular virtual world called 'Music City', you can login your character from your 'Music Star Tamagotchi' and play games and talk. You can also login as your 'Tama-Go' characters too. However, all Music Star servers are down in the USA.
