I had that one. I begged to have it but I hated it so much.
I had one and I loved it! It was the turtles one and you had to position your turtle to where a foot Ninja would be and dodge shurikens. It was awesome!
I had so many Tiger Electric games. Played the shit out of Castlevania. None of them were good at all, but the batteries lasted a long time and they were good for road trips.
I had a Zelda watch from Nintendo that was a full blown LCD game too. That one was cool as hell.
Ah! We had the Turtles one, it was surprisingly good. The “difficult” game B mode had quite a lot to it.
Anyone that enjoys some “retro LCD gaming” owes it to themselves to play Lukas Pope’s (Papers Please, Return of the Obra Dinn) “Moida Mansion”, done in the retro style:
I started getting into SBC gaming with the 351MP, moved on to the 405M, and finally got PS2 capable with a Odin 2 Portal and Retroid Pocket Mini V2. Those now gather dust alongside the 5700X3D/9070XT gaming PC I built as a backup to the 5800X3D/7900XTX PC I mainly use as an HTPC. I do not talk about the 11600k/6900XT or 5600/3050 PCs.
That big green TMNT game was something I saw all over and really wanted back then, until I finally got to play with one and realized I didn’t like the actual game so much.
It might be a fun form factor to get a modern retrogaming handheld in.
How did these compare to the Tiger Electronics ones? Never had one of these, but I did have at least one TMNT Tiger Electronic handheld.
I had the Top Gun one. It was terrible.
