He walks, he runs, he hides, he eats, and he’s looking for your affection. He’s Gupi, the latest in the never ending advances in digital pet companionship. Lightyears ahead of those damn Tamagochi that kept refusing to eat and dying, this furry critter uses sensors to map your living dwelling and run around, hides if you ignore it, must be feed a “magic carrot”, and will interact with other Gupis if they are introduced. He’s soft too!

This little critter will set you back approximately $70, but that is a steal compared to the upkeep of a real guinea pig, who will just sleep and poop. This one makes thirty different sounds!
