Check this site out, it has pictures of a lot of those old LCD games that were really popular back in the early 90's. It has a ton of the Tiger games and even other manufacturers. In retrospect, these games were real garbage, but at the time I enjoyed them, usually because they were based on a brand name that I liked, such as this little game:



I eventually ended up breaking this after I pressed the reset button so hard with a pen that it wouldn't come up, effectively killing the game.

And I also have fond memories of this:





There was also this one game that was really popular back then, I think it was a Bo Jackson game that was two games in one, one half baseball the other was football. I knew so many kids that had that one.


Oh yeah, and check this out:

That's pretty cool.





So, any of you guys remember playing with any of these games?

Before I get to Tiger, I still kick myself for selling my Super Mario Bros Game and Watch many years ago. That game was WAY ahead of any Tiger LCD game. Side scrolling graphics with multiple changing environments, there was even a warp zone. If only you could kill enemies it would've been perfect.

Tiger? Oh yeah. Loved Megaman 2 and 3. There was also a generic Tiger space game a classmate had, think it had something to do with comets and it had a little turn wheel on the left side for control.

Also, I still have my Bart Simpsom skateboard game which rocked but the LCD is fading and wearing out. Also, Cupcake Crisis rocked but I lost it many years ago. Bah.

I always wanted to play the Battletoads Tiger game.

Ahhhh yes. Tiger before they lost their simplicity...their innocence....before......GAME.COM!!!!! MWAHAHAHAHA.

I had a bowling game that I absolutly loved....Can't remeber if it was Tiger or generic, but it was hours of fun. The Tiger Gauntlet game wasn't half bad either.

I had the Metal Gear tiger game, without even knowing what Metal Gear was. It seemed cool at the time...you could even interrogate the enemy, but sometimes they'd lie and try to gas you or something. It had hilarious voice samples too.

As soon as I my friend's Lynxx though, all interest in tiger stuff vanished.

I had a Tiger Batman Returns game and a Tiger wrestling game with generic characters in it. Both were fun for a quite diversion every now and then.

Here we go, this was the bowling game.

That game ruled.

I remember I had some of the games. I had Ninja Gaiden for sure. Played then one a lot. I think I even had Double Dragon. The games were pretty crappy then, I dont even want to check them out now. I also remember having this stadium handheld thing for 2 player baseball games. That was pretty sweet as a kid.

Oh my god, I used to have such a collection of those when I was younger.....My brother and i would fight over these things incessantly, over who got to play first and for how long, etc.

Though we had quite a few, the one that stood out in my mind was this X-Men game, where it had a little card slider thingy on it (think e-reader) and you could swipe these character cards...and you would power up or something like that. When you started it up, there was this little digital voice that said "XMEN FORE-EVER!" and the game was hard as all hell.

Another one we had was this star trek one where you had to shoot phasers at these rocks, and one stage you got to be Worf and shoot aliens oO

I miss those games ;_;

Paperboy is the only one that I can remember. Fun stuff.

I got my first in 1988 but I can't remember if it was made by a big name company or not. I think it was called Ghost Catcher or something like that. It was a small yellow one. It got broken and thrown away but I'd love to lay eyes on it again. I reckon I won't though since it's obscure. A friend of mine had Snoopy Tennis and Donkey Kong Junior, a two-screened one.
