The Center Card - Tamagotchi Smart Complete English Patch - 16MB

UPDATE MAY 2025: 100% English patch is now available!

The 'Listen' and 'Speak' close-up interactions were the final 1% of the translation, initially thought to be technically impossible to achieve. However, SG's dedicated technical team has successfully completed this last part, bringing the translation to 100%. General translations have been revised after two years of user beta testing, and the alphabetical characters have been redrawn for improved consistency.

The Center Card design has been refined and is now available in purple!

Since 2023, Tamagotchi Center has been the designer and producer of the smart card hardware, and the primary distributor of the freely available community patch to the wider community. The patch file is not sold by Tamagotchi Center — the smart card is simply offered pre-loaded with the patch, which can be downloaded by anyone for free here, purely for user convenience.

Compatible with all Smart models: Coral, Mint, 25th Anniversary White, NiziU, One Piece, Sanrio, and Anniversary Purple.

The patch is now 100% complete, all the Japanese text has been translated by Studded and his team. The remaining 'Listen' / 'Speak' features, and some image and font adjustments have been made by: Ami, caffeinated.cake, curlour, Cyanic, Dani Dandelion, DeviMikachu, Konky, Makorie, SG, and Teallen. Full credits can be found here.
