I got a Double Dragon one once and it was such a rip off. I had no clue what I was buying (I was like 5 or 6 years old) and I was so pissed.
I had the Super Street Fighter 2
I can't believe somebody hadn't posted it yet.
Oh wow. There's a 'Doug' button.
I've never seen this before. So one cannot Doug and Faster at the same time?
this was a dot matrix display, very different from the kinds of games discussed in this topic. The game.com, while extremely crappy, was more in line with the gameboy or watara supervision.
What's cool is that I still have these in my closet and they all work:
i played wheel of fortune on this thing for probably 100 hours
when I was a kid. I've always wanted to have this.
I put so much time into this little guy before I finally got an NES:
I used it so much that I wore out the WEAPON button on mine.
I found the Tiger-style games with the etched-characters-style LCDs to be pretty terrible.
As a kid we had to pretend to appreciate them when our grandmother gave them to us because she "knows we like video games."
On the other hand, those Tetris-clone things with actual dot-matrix (if low res) displays were OK. I've never been a big Tetris fan but I'll take it over Tiger-style games any day.
I seem to recall them having a couple of non-Tetris games using the same dot-matrix display, like racing games or such.
Yep. Had this one ,and played the shit out of it. Actually, I can't remember if it was this one or Ninja Gaiden II...This was mine as a kid
There it is. Thats the one I had. That, Sonic 2 and Baseball. Now that I look back though... man its crazy how much I liked those super limited games haha. Plus the GOAT:
I really wanted Sonic 3 when I was a kid but I didn't have a genesis so I had to settle for this
It was a bit of a disappointment
Had this one in green and called "Dracula" or something. Great game.
I loved this thing as a kid. My grandparents had one without any of the game template things, so I only knew it by the dots around the screen. So good.I had the Mattel, Coleco, and Tiger handhelds, but this one was one of my favorites:
I remember this one, it was fun and quite sophisticated for a LCD game..
There's a great Iwata Asks interview with the original creators of the Game & Watch which first released in 1980. Read it HERE.
This was the first ever Game & Watch released, Ball 1980.
This was the final Game & Watch ever released, Mario The Juggler, 1991
i think going forward every controller should have a Doug button
