Now living in the us, but I grew up in Korea, and it was popular – on par with Pokemon at its peak in my opinion. I used to own tamagotchis, and I and my brothers used to watch its first anime series during childhood.
It looks like it fell off hard in popularity, and it seems well behind Pokemon…
That got me to think, was it ever popular in the us? I know Pokemon was huge here, but not sure about Digimon.
