Tiger Handheld Games & Friends

How many playable characters were there in street fighter? That’s pretty cool

Someone told me a long time ago that there were three standard TMNT games, and a TMNT basketball game.

I had this one, it was fucking hard. I think I got to around level 6 or 7 before it became pretty much impossible.

I also had the Sonic one, I loved it as a kid despite how incoherent it was. It tries to depict the same level scrolling as the real games, which mostly means Sonic is stationary in the centre of the screen with his legs flickering and platforms along the bottom flashing on and off.

Stage 4 was Labyrinth Zone, which was my favourite even though it was possibly even more confusing to look at. You could move underwater, which would change Sonic’s movement animation on his legs to make it look like he was swimming. There were also bubbles that used part of the same sprite that was for the Roller enemies.

The music was super ear-splitting. Took me a long time to realise that it was supposed to be Marble Zone’s theme, just sped up considerably.

Besides the Tiger Electronics, I had a bunch of other LCD games that were mostly all the same. I was pretty much obsessed with them for a while. I remember one was about trying to bounce ghosts off a crucifix to get them to a flame on the other side of the screen to exorcise them.

I still have the Tiger Electronics’ Sonic 1, 3, and NiGHTs handhelds. Thankfully 8 year old me was wise enough not to leave batteries in any of them.

I found it, it’s called ‘Ghost Buster’. Pretty sure mine was yellow though.

Oh god I had that one

I had a few, the ones I can specifically remember are Double Dragon and Mouse Maze. Mouse Maze was actually pretty neat and well suited for the platform being a single screen maze game.

i played so much rampage as a kid

The Castlevania 2 one was super wack.

I had a few G&Ws and two tigers and almost never played the tigers.

The Batman one was especially unappealing

this game and this video are both haunted. now my house is haunted too. what have i done

here’s an sd gundam game! you stand on the left side of the screen, and enemies come from the right. you’ve got to attack them before they attack you, but not while they’re defendiing or they’ll counter

this is an arkanoid-style game! the white area isn’t the screen but a kind of translucent covering. you flip it open and you see the game reflected in a little mirror inside, for a kind of psuedo-3d kind of effect.

this one’s by alice soft, who are mainly known for pornographic pc games! you might think the musical note button is for muting the sound, but it doesn’t seem to do anything, nor do the up and down buttons on the d-pad. alicesoft’s hani mascot is on the start button though! you play a little girl with a bazooka shooting flying enemies and avoiding their shots.

finally, this is just a nice convenient little device containing 200 nonogram puzzles. i actually got it brand new factory sealed last year, though it was made in 1997 (and there were 20 year old corroded batteries inside D:) if i find the instructions and stuff i’ll scan them~

I have this one, it acts as a cool toy ( you can change the load out even!) and the game itself is played on the back of the head
