Bandai’s Tamagotchi Pix uses a built-in camera to allow Tamagotchi characters like the Mametchi (featured in many of the images above) to interact with users’ real-world environments. Here, the Tamagotchi is used to censor images of adult entertainers. In being put to this use, is the character participating in the act being depicted on its screen?
