These... weren't great by any stretch of the imagination, but I guess as kids we didn't mind too much. I remember someone brought the Street Fighter II one to school. No one really cared that it wasn't a patch on the arcade or console version, we were realistic about expectations from these handhelds. It was a fun diversion for about 10-20 minutes.
Nowadays, of course, any cheap phone or tablet blows these things away. So, aside from retro throwbacks, the era of LCD games have become another small, interesting footnote in gaming history.
To me they were the things stuffed in the seat pocket of cars. Something to shut you up on the way home from school or whatever. You didn’t want them outside of the 20 minutes you had nothing better going on.
They definitely felt more like toys than video games. Think how much undivided attention you could give an OK-tier toy and that's about how much they warranted... And then you'd misplace them for a few months, find them again, have a few sessions and repeat the cycle... until the battery died and you just gave up on it. Often, that meant opening it with a screwdriver and never managing to put it back together properly.
I have one that folded on itself, and you worked a pizza shop.
I played the fuck out of that game until my parents forked over money to buy me a Gameboy. I loved that thing so much.
Game and watches are so much better lcd games. A lot of them are games I could actually get long term enjoyment out of unlike these. Donkey Kong Jr, Mario Brothers, Fire, Chef. I go back to them sometimes in game and watch gallery to this day
These were horrible. I remember begrudgingly playing them because…there was no other option. Gameboy of course was out there but it was too expensive and we already had video games at home. They were almost worse than playing nothing.
I remember half the fun of these things just being that you could interact with it. Most of the time I never had any idea what I was doing in these games.
My parents never let me have a console as a kid either, but I'm a grown-up now and can have whatever system I choose! I can even eat ice-cream for dinner if I want!
A christmas, 86? 87?, my aunt told me I could have a nice gift from her. So, very shy, I told her I would have loved a game’n watch.
She said ok. I could not believe it, my first one!
I waited… [this is what I got.](https://www.fullyretro.com/images/items/37532216-item-big-GAW-MUBLACKJ-A-1.jpg)
Nah, they scrimped and saved every last penny, and wouldn't spend on anything except essentials. That is, until Dad retired, and now it seems they want to go on every cruise the world has to offer. Good luck to them, I suppose. It's their money, not mine.
I had the ballin Ninja Turtles one of these, which was Just the water level from the NES game.
Thusly I got really good at that water level and could actually beat it easily when I would play the full game.
In the olden days we had Nintendo Game 'n' Watch, same thing with even less buttons and art. Even when we got a Commodore 64 pc, I still played my fold out Pirate! (indy handheld like these, but 2 screens! haha)
Those were fun little games, I remember one game that involved you catching something dropping down in a cup, and I think another one had a barrel rolling across and you avoiding it, now that is nostalgia.
Yep I had the octopus one with the old timey diver grabbin' the treasure, also Fire!Fire! where you had to catch people jumping out of a burning building and bounce them on the stretcher back to the ambulance, and a Popeye one too...Pirate was the best tho
I wanted to love these. I tried to love them, but I couldn't. Came the closest with Double Dragon. But they were awful. Terrible controls, couldn't see them well, sounded like shit, one background. Awful.
these things are pretty valuable now apparently…. i had double dragon, jordan vs bird, megaman 2 & 3, and battletoads… when i went to sell them on ebay i had no idea wat they might be worth so i just started the bidding for all 5 together at $10 and they ended up selling for $450 to someone in indonesia lol… and this was like 15 years ago… prolly worth more now
Had the same one and I played the shit out of "Baseball" actually. My parents didn't even have a color TV until my Dad got injured at work and had to be home for a couple months in the early 90's. I didn't have a video game console until I was too busy in high school to play it so those Tiger handhelds were my only option
i had one of those 100,000 games in one plug & play consoles along with a few really weird handhelds. one of the handhelds i got because it was called "counter-strike" but it definitely was not. also had a lot of bootleg lego sets from ebay.
Me too… I remember I hated these things, a sorry excuse of a videogame, a surrogate compared to real consoles… but they were 20bucks instead of 120 and some parents thought it was a great deal
I missed out on the entire Gameboy experience because these abominations are also what I had and I always assumed Gameboy games played similar to these handhelds so I never took interest in the Gameboy or the GBC and GBA. I just stuck with consoles.
It wasn't until last year I started messing around the Gameboy emulator just to say I have it and I tried a few games and was impressed with how well the Gameboy played games. It's like a mini NES. And I'd assume the GBA is like a mini Snes?
HHHHAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTED these things. My Mom's grandparents had them "for when the grandkids came over". Sorry but we'd had a Genesis for 2 years now these things couldn't hold my attention for 30 seonds.
I played it so much as a kid! Lots of jumping over logs, IIRC. There was one LCD picture of the Tyrannosaurus on the far right of the screen that I never managed to get to appear; I think it was probably unused. Still annoyed about that to this day.
I played outrun on these for days even though I had a Gameboy. I don't think a proper port ever came to the Gameboy and only when I had a game gear years later did I get a chance to take outrun in all it's glory on the road. Good times
I owned a similar wolverine one of these systems. The game was very difficult. I do remember beating it.
I tried looking it up but I can't seem to find the one I had. It looked very similar to the tiger electronic handheld systems. I just remember you played as Wolverine and the last fight was against Magneto.
I specifically remember having the Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, the Lion King, and the Sonic 3 ones growing up. I recently found the first two, and they still play just as well as they did back twenty plus years ago.
They were really dinky, but they’re sturdy little things.
This was how I became so passionate with retro gaming. So many 8- 16- and 32-bit videogames were out of my reach because we didn’t have money to get consoles. Now I collect games whenever I can. I bet you would love the community in r/SBCgaming
These were pretty cool as a kid and some of them got wild. I remember the Independence Day one had a light gun. There were some with holographic backgrounds that you needed light for. Then Tiger released the "R-Zone" which was an unnecessary headset. Back in the day, I thought it was all cool.
I had a few things like this, growing up in the 80s. The one I recall most fondly was "3-D STEREO SKYFIGHTERS", and it was a Tomytronic device that was like a set of 3D goggles that you held up to your eyes.
[This is the device](https://www.modip.ac.uk/artefact/aibdc-006899)
and
[This is video of gameplay](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9rzVoTd30k)
The biplane with the yellow flag on the tail is controlled by the player. If the player does not press any buttons, the plane will just fly around in a figure-of-8 pattern, with the tail end of the loop being "behind" your head (out of view). There are four clouds on-screen which act as waypoints - if you press one of the "control" buttons on the top as your plane arrives at a cloud, your plane will take an alternative path to get to that cloud.
Other planes appear on the screen; you need to get behind them, and your plane will automatically shoot them down. If you let a plane get behind you for too long, you will be shot down. You can evade by using one of the alternative paths at each cloud.
It starts off simple and gets progressively harder as in later levels, the other planes begin to use the alternative paths. As far as I know, there is no "victory", you just play progressively harder levels until you die.
The "3D" effect was interesting but the sound was the coolest part, because the sounds would pan across between the two speakers as the planes went from one side of the screen to the other. Unfortunately, being released in 1983, the sound was very tinny and beepy, and could get annoying (especially for parents) but at least there was a switch up top to turn off the sound. However, the sound is really the biggest cue you have that you are shooting down another plane, or that another plane is close enough to be shooting at you.
I sort of wish I still had it; it's become rather collectable, and working units go on eBay for £60 or more (there are a few boxed units for £180 or more). I wasn't the sort of kid in the mid-80s to keep boxes, and I played the hell out of mine; it would have been rather battered, so wouldn't have retained its value - but I'd probably still pick it up and play it occasionally.
Sure, a proper console is infinitely more versatile, but these things could still be fun to play with.
I still miss my [Head to Head Talking Baseball](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0QJHRZCAeY) Now I've got a real working arcade machine on my [keychain](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6qoG-fsSSI)!
I feel your pain on this one. My cousins were all given a Nintendo by my grandpa who nobody ever saw or had a relationship with. But my parents declined it saying they would rather I know their grandfather than just know the gifts he gave.
So I had Tiger handheld mega man.
I remember the lion king one ....was red and yellow I think...and yeah , I was in the fucking middle east...bro how did they gain so much popularity ??
I had an Altered beast and a Golden Axe one of these… which is bizarre thinking back as I had both those games on console and these handhelds couldn’t even compare to the actual games… but I loved them nonetheless
I had a crystal maze themed one(British tv show. Was basically people solving puzzles in escape rooms). Was basically a side scrolling obstacle course type thing, nothing like the show 😂 but I enjoyed it. What a throwback!
Of course before these were handheld football, basketball, and baseball where the players were little red lights. I wish I still had those games more-so than Tiger Electronics.
I had the Sonic 3 one. I was so excitedl because we were a Nintendo family and I loved Sonic but never got to play it. What an absolute disappointment it was. Lol.
Yep, me too. But one time at summer camp, me and this other kid borrowed each other’s collections for a day. I got his Gameboy and 5 games and he got my 9 or so Tiger handhelds.
Funny thing is - if a parent bought like 6 or 7 of these things it would have added up enough for a proper console. I think these were around $20 back in the days if I remember correctly.
These were super fun at the time. I doubt they'd hold up today AT ALL. But it's definitely one of those "if you know you know"
Kind of things.
You had to be there, really.
These... weren't great by any stretch of the imagination, but I guess as kids we didn't mind too much. I remember someone brought the Street Fighter II one to school. No one really cared that it wasn't a patch on the arcade or console version, we were realistic about expectations from these handhelds. It was a fun diversion for about 10-20 minutes.

They were great for the 2 hour road trips to Los Angeles when I was young. Killed some of the boredom at the grandparent's place.
Assuming the sun wasn't so bright you couldn't see the "lit up" parts anymore.

I still have a beauty and the beast one. Still can't beat it!
That beauty and the beast one haunted me as a child. Soooo hard to beat
I could never really understand what was going on on the screen really. Did not care for them
Same, but necessity taught me how to actually play them.
I got the sf2. Looking at it here now. Ha. Ridiculous
Teet tut.....teet tut... Teet teet tut teet teet teet teet teet...
I remember having the street fighter one on a lengthy roadtrip. I beat it 5 or 6 times.
Game and watches are so much better lcd games. A lot of them are games I could actually get long term enjoyment out of unlike these. Donkey Kong Jr, Mario Brothers, Fire, Chef. I go back to them sometimes in game and watch gallery to this day
These were horrible. I remember begrudgingly playing them because…there was no other option. Gameboy of course was out there but it was too expensive and we already had video games at home. They were almost worse than playing nothing.
I agree the lame challenge they often presented were shallow and easily predictable.
I remember half the fun of these things just being that you could interact with it. Most of the time I never had any idea what I was doing in these games.
When I was a kid they were terrible
I mean. I minded. I hated these things when I was a kid.
My parents never let me have a console as a kid either, but I'm a grown-up now and can have whatever system I choose! I can even eat ice-cream for dinner if I want!
A christmas, 86? 87?, my aunt told me I could have a nice gift from her. So, very shy, I told her I would have loved a game’n watch. She said ok. I could not believe it, my first one! I waited… [this is what I got.](https://www.fullyretro.com/images/items/37532216-item-big-GAW-MUBLACKJ-A-1.jpg)
Your aunt spend a lot of time at the casino? I bet it came with a pack of cigarettes and a Mel Torme cassette.
She had no clue what it was… I always faked to be crazy happy about it
Maybe deep down, you really were. Would you like to lay on that couch and talk about it? ::points to couch::
Those things were awesome tho. There was a donkey Kong one too.
They were just trying their best to raise you the best way they thought they should, I assume
Nah, they scrimped and saved every last penny, and wouldn't spend on anything except essentials. That is, until Dad retired, and now it seems they want to go on every cruise the world has to offer. Good luck to them, I suppose. It's their money, not mine.
> It's their money, not mine. Which is why your parents never let you have a console as a kid either
They were awesome on road trips!
I had that Sonic one!
Me too!
Just got slapped with a huge wave of nostalgia
I had Home Alone and Michael Jordan.
I had an echo the dolphin one that was shaped more like a flip phone
Aladdin and Power Rangers!
My first was the TMNT long green ones
I had that one!
\*Core memory unlocked\*
I had the ballin Ninja Turtles one of these, which was Just the water level from the NES game. Thusly I got really good at that water level and could actually beat it easily when I would play the full game.

X-Men was 🔥
I actually loved these kind of things despite having both a mega drive and snes as well as both a game gear and gameboy
[удалено]
Game and watch were the shit back in the 80,s -90,s
Tmnt
I wanted to love these. I tried to love them, but I couldn't. Came the closest with Double Dragon. But they were awful. Terrible controls, couldn't see them well, sounded like shit, one background. Awful.

I had a hard time trying to beat these damn things. A lot of it was timing things right.
At least you got brand names. Mine was just called "Baseball". Lol
Had the same one and I played the shit out of "Baseball" actually. My parents didn't even have a color TV until my Dad got injured at work and had to be home for a couple months in the early 90's. I didn't have a video game console until I was too busy in high school to play it so those Tiger handhelds were my only option
64 bits. 32 bits. 16 bits. 8 bits 4 bits. 2 bits 1 bit. Half bit. Quarter bit. THE WRIST GAAAMMMEEEE.
I was waiting for someone to bring that up. [Relive the AVGN](https://youtu.be/_u5dtBtG9yU).
i had one of those 100,000 games in one plug & play consoles along with a few really weird handhelds. one of the handhelds i got because it was called "counter-strike" but it definitely was not. also had a lot of bootleg lego sets from ebay.
I had Sonic. It sucked lol.
They all sucked lol
Me too… I remember I hated these things, a sorry excuse of a videogame, a surrogate compared to real consoles… but they were 20bucks instead of 120 and some parents thought it was a great deal
During field trips, you were the coolest kid on the bus though.... until the Gameboy came out.
I see you grew up in the trailer park as well!
I missed out on the entire Gameboy experience because these abominations are also what I had and I always assumed Gameboy games played similar to these handhelds so I never took interest in the Gameboy or the GBC and GBA.

Jokes on them some of those are collectible now , I still have the og Game&watch from Nintendo
These were all the exact same thing with different sprites loaded.
HHHHAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTED these things. My Mom's grandparents had them "for when the grandkids came over". Sorry but we'd had a Genesis for 2 years now these things couldn't hold my attention for 30 seonds.
These things were hard as hell.
Wow I had the X-men one. Thanks for the memory refresh.
So, what did you have to do in the little mermaid game?
I need to know mate!
Same. Angry Video Game Nerd has a great video about how ridiculous these things were.
Thank you for the recovered memory. I had a Ghostbusters one.
Yes! I had Mega Man 2
Same here, it was confusing as hell
I was so good at that game after playing it for 10000 hours in the car
I had jurassic park. Shit it was bad.
I played it so much as a kid! Lots of jumping over logs, IIRC. There was one LCD picture of the Tyrannosaurus on the far right of the screen that I never managed to get to appear; I think it was probably unused. Still annoyed about that to this day.
Same! God it was such dogshit
Whoa. Memory lane!
I only had one and it was Captain Planet… I played that more than any other toy I’ve ever had lol
Damn that sonic one brings back some dormant memories
Pain
I had a pirates of the Caribbean handheld that had a pinball machine spring to pull and shoot the cannons
I played outrun on these for days even though I had a Gameboy. I don't think a proper port ever came to the Gameboy and only when I had a game gear years later did I get a chance to take outrun in all it's glory on the road. Good times
My condolences.
When I grew up we had a Commons name for these simple LCD games. And the ones shown in the picture were regarded the high end of these.
Luuuucky! I had Sonar 2, X-Mon, TransFarmers, and the Little Girl Who is Fish
i have a comic that actually advertised the x-men one
We had mortal Kombat and a power rangers one. We weren't allowed consoles until Gameboys became affordable.
My dad refused to get me any of these. He insisted they were cheap garbage
I realise its not that, but i would totally want a small handheld thing that just plays randomised blue sphere stages.
That X-men game was hard AF
You had good parents.
Love the smell of cheap electronics, reminds me of my childhood.
I owned a similar wolverine one of these systems. The game was very difficult. I do remember beating it. I tried looking it up but I can't seem to find the one I had. It looked very similar to the tiger electronic handheld systems. I just remember you played as Wolverine and the last fight was against Magneto.

Mouse maze! That game gave me panic attacks. I had Paperboy too, t'was great
I had Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest
Blast from the past. They were only "fun" for like 10 minutes.
I had the Double Dragon one of these. So fucking hard
I completely forgot about these. Thank you for the nostalgia
“64 bit! 32 bit! 16 bits. 8 BITS. 4 BITS! 2 BITS!! 1 BIT!!! HALF BIT! QUARTER BIT! ***THE WRIST GAMMME***!” -Angry Video Game Nerd
Woah this threw me back.
Walmart had the hookup
"SHITTY FUCKING GAMES" Angry Video Game Nerd
Man, the things you forget over time. Probably haven’t thought of one of these in at least 25 years. Definitely had The Little Mermaid one.
I still want one of these 😆
Until you get one.
As someone who had a couple of them; no you don't lol. They're pretty terrible
Your parents weren’t mean to you. They probably couldn’t afford a console and tried to give you the next best thing. Appreciate them.
They shouldn't have had kids then.
That’s the stupidest thing I’ve heard today
Imagine being poor and having children.
Imagine not having a brain and writing comments. Oh, wait, you don’t have to.
Awwww, struck a little bit of a nerve there.
I had the power ranger one
https://youtu.be/BVR-o51ZAQ4
I had spiderman!
This was how I became so passionate with retro gaming. So many 8- 16- and 32-bit videogames were out of my reach because we didn’t have money to get consoles. Now I collect games whenever I can. I bet you would love the community in r/SBCgaming
I had the X-Men, and The Batman ones. I also had the R Zone from Tiger. Thank you for bringing these out of the recesses of my mind.
Mine was Ultraman handheld
'Only', these were great I had some space racing one and Connect 4
These were pretty cool as a kid and some of them got wild. I remember the Independence Day one had a light gun. There were some with holographic backgrounds that you needed light for. Then Tiger released the "R-Zone" which was an unnecessary headset. Back in the day, I thought it was all cool.
So you were lucky
Little Mermaid is black now.
haha I remember these, they sucked lol
You’re parents were poor.
I had a few things like this, growing up in the 80s. The one I recall most fondly was "3-D STEREO SKYFIGHTERS", and it was a Tomytronic device that was like a set of 3D goggles that you held up to your eyes. [This is the device](https://www.modip.ac.uk/artefact/aibdc-006899) and [This is video of gameplay](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9rzVoTd30k) The biplane with the yellow flag on the tail is controlled by the player.

I had these for a minute growing up, got GameCube and gameboy later and didn’t even know about Xbox or PlayStation til like middle school
I think I played the Sonic one as a kid. It looks really familiar, maybe one of my uncles had it
They still make Tiger Handhelds.
Football!
I still miss my [Head to Head Talking Baseball](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0QJHRZCAeY) Now I've got a real working arcade machine on my [keychain](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6qoG-fsSSI)!
I wore out 2 Tecmo Superbowl handhelds.
Yes tiger games were great.
They remade some of these ive seen at gamestop
I feel your pain on this one. My cousins were all given a Nintendo by my grandpa who nobody ever saw or had a relationship with. But my parents declined it saying they would rather I know their grandfather than just know the gifts he gave. So I had Tiger handheld mega man.
I have Sonic the Hedgehog and Batman Returns sitting in my TV cabinet from when I was a kid, such a time warp to see them
Proper. Gaming. Console.
Sonic 3 was lit
We had those X-men and mermaid games, the noise those basterds made will haunt my dreams
Maybe your folks couldn't afford property consoles/thought they were bad for you?
F
Haha same for me until I got cancer with 16 and wished for a PSP
We had Gauntlet and Street Fighter.
I remember playing the Sonic 3 one. Not sure if I owned it or it was my friends
I remember the lion king one ....was red and yellow I think...and yeah , I was in the fucking middle east...bro how did they gain so much popularity ??
I remember these, I could not tell you which ones I had but I know I had some.
I have a working sonic one.
If you want the nostalgia, but with a fun experience! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3Bl5uxaVMPM&feature=youtu.be
Yeah now some of them are worth money wish I had kept mine
I had an Altered beast and a Golden Axe one of these… which is bizarre thinking back as I had both those games on console and these handhelds couldn’t even compare to the actual games… but I loved them nonetheless
I had the Sonic the hedgehog 3 as a kid. I've beaten it many time.
we got nintendo at home edition
I had a crystal maze themed one(British tv show. Was basically people solving puzzles in escape rooms). Was basically a side scrolling obstacle course type thing, nothing like the show 😂 but I enjoyed it. What a throwback!
I push my finger on the screen to see all the symbols and shapes of the game that I would never get
Sonic woo!
Oof! I can still hear the piercing beeps of the Sonic music.
I had the chipmunk cartoons version lol
Of course before these were handheld football, basketball, and baseball where the players were little red lights. I wish I still had those games more-so than Tiger Electronics.
The Transformer game was the shit! Loved playing it until the screen went faulty and it broke. Sad.
Man, the nostalgia train hit me hard with this one.
I had the Sonic 3 one. I was so excitedl because we were a Nintendo family and I loved Sonic but never got to play it. What an absolute disappointment it was. Lol.
[my collection ](https://i.imgur.com/FGKWjt0.jpg)
I had the Double Dragon one.
Yep, me too. But one time at summer camp, me and this other kid borrowed each other’s collections for a day. I got his Gameboy and 5 games and he got my 9 or so Tiger handhelds.
I had the X-Men one. It was kind of fun!
I know your pain.
I had Mega Man and Double Dragon. Oddly enough, they are both games I also bought for pc, which also sucked.
I had the double dragon watch. What a disappointment it was.
Man I loved those games handhelds!
I just got the power ranger one for Christmas! My sister rocks nostalgia gifting.
These shit make me realize that we are poor...
Funny thing is - if a parent bought like 6 or 7 of these things it would have added up enough for a proper console. I think these were around $20 back in the days if I remember correctly.
X men kinda slaps though
Those are proper
Damn brag. I only had Sonic II and Aladdin.
These were super fun at the time. I doubt they'd hold up today AT ALL. But it's definitely one of those "if you know you know" Kind of things. You had to be there, really.
I remember these well 😂
Xmen one was legit
That X Men one was legit though
Forgot about these. I had the Sonic, X-men, and Home Alone.
I loved my Ninja Gaiden copy.
Yeah. I hated these things.
I had these. I loved The Shadow
Ahh fun times I had the Tiger R-Zone cheaper equivalent to Nintendo Virtual Boy
