Back in the day a lot of companies were coming out with virtual pets, but none of them specifically claimed to be "Tamagotchis". Now-a-days, just looking on eBay you will find so many fakes actually claiming to be real. Don't let them fool you. Anything that does not specifically say "Bandai" on the package is probably fake!

Nano virtual pets were one of the most popular virtual pets when Tamagotchis were first released. They were mostly popular in the U.S. I think. I had an orange kitty at one point, but gave it away for some reason. I only just bought another one to add to my collection. I can say that the Nanos were popular for a reason. They had two games and the characters were cute and could last for a very long time. I once got my nano kitty up to 28 years (28 days in human time) I think. Recently the company re-released them, but didn't really change anything. It looks like they slapped together all their spare parts and just sold all the old ones they had left over in my opinion. I still think Nanos are great, especially the original ones. They came in three characters: kittens, puppies and human babies.
Here are some pictures of the ones I currently own. Two kitties and a puppy. The most recently obtained one is the orange Nano Kitty (which came out before the other two in my collection). It's European and more sparkly than the original one I had!:
