In what might be the strongest collaboration Disney has delivered yet with Star Wars, the company has teamed up with Bandai to release an R2-D2 Tamagotchi, which will launch later this year.

Popular in the '90s, Tamagotchis are little digital pets that you need to feed, entertain, and just generally keep alive.

The Tamagotchi operates pretty much how you expect it to. It's a small digital device that comes in two colors, and each one features three physical buttons for interacting with your astromech.
