Slightly different item but I saved up for months for a copy Gibson SG guitar (with KAY on the headstock 😂) , it was out of a catalogue, it was unplayable and I too learned a very valuable lesson back then, kids and their money are easily parted. It was a tenth of the price of a genuine Gibson SG but I stupidly convinced myself that it would be good.

28:18 How the HELL are you supposed to tell ninjas and robots apart? There's Cyrax, Sektor and Smoke for latter, three girls, with one having darker skin and two others - masked twins - and like... six ninja guys in MKT?! Scorp, SZ, Rain, Noob, Ermac, Human Smoke and Reptile. I'd get if they cut most and made main ones different shades of grey but RAIN IS HERE, and his stance is not Reptile's but same as all other male ninjas, so HOW?!

What's really sad about Indy 500 (24:34) is that this is the ONLY home version (well, aside from the R-Zone but I don't count that). I loved that game, but Sega cancelled a home version of it to work on Daytona USA Championship Edition. It's fine now as it runs well in emulation, but it's a bit bad that the only home version until computers became powerful enough to emulate the arcade was on this... thing.

you make the assumption that tiger lcd games were loved by kids. No, they were garbage. Kids would play with them 30-45 mins, that's it. What made them popular was their price.

No offense to Tiger Electronics LLC, but a PDA plus/+ isn't not a multi purpose electronic video-game unit... alas, those Wrist videogame monstrosities and R-Zone were unnecessary pukes of garbage/trash. The Tiger Electronic video-games Game.com could have triumphed if only it was actually beta tested and increased it's ram/rom , draw distance, added colour sprites and enlarged the f-g display screen ... alas even the Pocket Pro goofed and crapped the bedsheets so to speak. Lights out, MK: Trilogy, Resident Evil 2, and Duke Nukem were stand out titles.
