It's sad how terrible the Tiger handhelds were compared to the ones from the 80's....

Those things pre-dated Game Boy. So at first, they were pretty neat. But then they just far outstayed their welcome.

So much nostalgia. I had a few of these like the Sonic Spinball one, and now I want to play them again. I know they were god awful but for some reason, I enjoyed playing them back in the day.

I have several handhelds still sealed and don't know what the value of these are in today's market. Most of the handhelds in my video are for sale. Hit me up if you are interested.

I remember having an X-men one and playing it to death! I didn't care if it sucked!

There are also some Konami hand helds! I had a TMNT one that I really liked back then.

I do find many of these at fleamarkets, and yeah they are missing the battery covers. some of them are sticky cause the kids back then used duct tape or other tapes.

These guys will become collectibles cause we are nostalgic and yearn to play what we had as kids.

Here's the Tiger games I used to play as a kid:

Castlevania II
Super Off Road
Gauntlet
Days of Thunder
Mega Man 2 (I was ecstatic to rediscover this at a thrift store for $1)

And that's all I can remember. But I would like to see these added to that Pica-pic site (along with Symphony of the Night and Mega Man 3, both Tiger LCD games which I've not played).

Mega Man is the only one I own now. My past games either got destroyed or stolen.
...just another lost soul...

I remember these. I had Simon's quest, Marble Madness, and Karate Champ that I played all the time! Then I got a GameBoy and never touched them again.

The gauntlet one really was good. It re-drew the maze as you moved.

Also had the double dragon game. Not so good..
