Tiger Electronics Fighting Games

[@Ryan-vw5ul]

These are one step removed from imitating a fighting game using shadow puppets.

[@7ylerD]

I mean, shadow puppets move more fluidly and don’t die on a car ride.

I mean, that sounds way more fun. I'd actually pay to see an adaptation of MK 1 through 3 in Shadow Puppet form.

[@i-never-look-at-replies-lol]

These were my first lesson in buyer's remorse. I remember acquiring enough cash in 1980s dollars as a child to buy a crappy Ghosts n' Goblins handheld Tiger cart...$20 may have well been $1,000,000 in both the way my brain processed money and because of inflation now...but then I had to learn about something called "tax" and still needed to save a *little* bit more for a *little* bit longer to cover it. After months of setting aside the equivalent of my life savings, I got my parents to take me back to the toy store where I had seen one to buy it. And it was the worst piece of shit ever. I every bit of money thrown away on something with the graphics of a calculator. It looked nothing like the game I played on my buddy's Nintendo down the street. The idea I could hold something like that in my hands eventually, the disappointment felt upon having it, and just how long it took to earn & save...there was a lesson in there. And even worse: it took batteries.

Coincidently, many subjects you covered in your channel remind me of my late mother. Anyway, around 2003 when I visit a CD/DVD store in the middle of my town, I saw a bunch of Gameboy cartridge display in glass in that store. I instantly had attention at the Megaman Zero 1 cartridge due to the cover on it with Zero hold saber, I know instantly it's Megaman stuff and Megaman was the things I ended up growing playing the most back then. My town was small, and it was at the end of my country, so accessibility to hardware, software were always limited to some very specific stores around the town. That being said, it's a miracle to see something like that in such a small and lesser known place like my town. Of course, I couldn't afford to get a Gameboy, so every time I visit the store, I look at the cartridge again and again, and Zero was there to look at me in his badass pose as well. Of course, as a kid I tend to tell my mom what I like, but I keep very little details to the story. My mom remembered the term "Gameboy" however, my mom was a victim of war in the past, aging and living in a time when she disconnected from advancement of the world as technology keep getting better every day. She only approached internet by some of the last years of her life. That didn't stop her from hearing me though, on a trip with her friends, she visited a remote marketplace which is some of the biggest market where there are plenty of goods from overseas being imported through the borders illegally and legally. What I assume is that she asked someone about a gameboy despite not knowing how it looks and what on earth does it do, she assumed it's a toy. Eventually, she brought home what she thought was the thing that I wanted. The moment I saw it, I know it's not a gameboy and despite my age at the point, I know my mom has been bamboozled, and that thing right there is a knock-off device from China. That being said, I was well raised by my parents. I learned to appreciate before complain. I accept the gift from her, saying thanks and then went in the back of my house, started to open the bootleg device. She bought 4 cartridges along with the device, I was huge, almost like a PS Vita and at that time the packaging and the device itself is impressive for the size and the quality of packaging. It was a KO of Tiger Electronics stuff. There was one of the cartridge I remembered having a Fallout 2 cover on it, I didn't know it was fallout at that time. I turned on the device with some spare batteries around the house, putting in a cartridge, and oh boy, having blessed by Playstation at that point, I knew terrible graphic when I saw one. The screen despite being big, was terrible with only black and gray on background, no sound, and the static image on the screen was terrible as well with how limited the movement is, I had been spoiled with PS1 so this is without a doubt, a straight downgrade. Anyway, I tried all of the cartridges, and you guessed it, there's a bloody fighting game in one of those 4 cartridge. It was crappy, I tell you, I can't remember how specifically bad it was, but I recalled not to have anything nice to say about it either. It was pretty much you control one character on the left side, fight the other character using 2 buttons on the right of the device. The fight doesn't end, and the score will increase infinitely. I tried it for a couple of hours before giving up, leaving it on the side. The device I believe is still in the storage of my mom's house. I have nothing nice to say about the device, but I can say that my mom deeply cared about me, and she paid attention to what I adore, and she did try her best to provide what I wanted within her grasp. Again, she didn't have much to begin with. All I can say is that I was well-raised enough to appreciate her for her efforts on the day she bought me that "gameboy" instead of yelling and screaming like some spoiled brats. It was fun memory, I recalled it today when watching this video and honestly it was some of the best memory I've ever had with my mom.

[@MsLoquendo20]

I remember that when I was a kid, I had a weird type of bootleg tiger console which looked like a f-22 fighter which played games by introducing small cartridges on it, and one of them was a copy of The King of Fighters 97 or 98, I don't remember much about it besides the fact that iori yagami and either kyo kusanagi or terry bogard appeared on it, and also that it was really bad and not as fun as the real game.

[@jnerdsblog]

I think the difference between those who hated these, and those who love them, are if you got your first Tiger Handheld before the Game Boy (or the Nintendo for that matter) was a Thing. I LOVED my Tiger Handhelds. Baseball, Football, Pinball, even some of the actual-game-based ones like Castlevania and Jordan vs. Bird. No, they were never as good as consoles, but if you grew up with them and knew what to expect, they did a damn good job of keeping this 7-year-old occupied during the car ride to Granny's.

[@Kaliiscute]

[@stoopidmansidiot]

Since I didn't have money to own a Game Boy back then. I'm glad you made a video of those games here. Crazy nostalgia trip.

[@asbjrnandersen4222]

The thing you have to take into account is that technology was mainly for games where you move left and right to Dodge or catch things, and that goes on until you lose. They managed to cram 6 different characters + 2 bosses AND fatality in there.

I actually had the Mortal combat one of these as a kid. It "worked" but it was only worth using if I didn't have pretty much any other option. It was a novelty toy at best.

[@evenmorebetter]

I had the Tiger Area 51 lightgun handheld they also made, and I did actually find that one to be shockingly responsive for the expectation that anything Tiger is just hot, hot trash. I had fun with it for 5 minutes maybe 1-3 times. I also had MK3 for the Tiger R-Zone, which was another Tiger "console" with interchangeable cartridges, but it basically was the same tech as the LCD handhelds, but lit up in bright red projected onto a plastic panel in front of one of your eyes. Basically trying to be a bootleg cheap monoscopic version of the Virtual Boy, wayyy overestimating the mid-'90s market for VB interest. MK3 was basically an identical experience to the MK1 or SFII you showed but with MK3 characters.

[@ClydeMystik325]

1:20 Y'know, the funniest thing about the art on the Tiger Electronics SF2 handheld is that it was done by Mick McGinty (R.I.P.), who also drew the American boxart for SF2 on the SNES and Genesis. He's done artwork for plenty of North American home consoles releases back in the '90s.

[@jagtaggart936]

As a kid I liked the tiger lcd games. If there was a popular kids tv show, cartoon or movie there was likely a tiger game for it. I liked the simple, arcade-like, gameplay that worked for killing some time on the bus. The art on most of them wasn't bad either - bright and colorful, with candy-colored like buttons. They could be had for pretty cheap, and were pretty collectable. Mind you, this was in the late 80s to early 90s. When the Gamecom came out it was in the later half of the 90s. Even though it had things like a calendar and email, internet use was already pretty common through things like Netscape and AoL. It was marketed towards kids anyway, so those internet and office features were pretty unnecessary - it needed to be about the games. It was a huge misstep for it to have grayscale graphics since we've already had the Lynx, Game Gear, and the Gameboy Color was coming out around that time. I was working at a toy/video game retail chain at the time and we could not sell these things. They were expensive because of those unnecessary internet features and the games looked inferior to what other handhelds offered. Its game library was pretty limited too. Its "best games" were not exclusive but ports of far better versions (Duke Nukem, Fighters Megamix, Resident Evil 2...). And, like I said, the price point was awful. These games were not much cheaper than their console counterparts.

I could hardly play it, but outside of its use as a game system it was interesting to see the different features such an old device had included.

[@GMSpectre]

I remember these in the stores back in the day. One thing I noticed is that the earlier games they came out with (Pinball, Baseball, Bowling) were pretty okay for the price, but the games based on a license (Starting with Double Dragon) were when they started becoming...well "Tiger Handhelds". Thay said, they did come out with some great versions of Pinbot and Attack from Mars pinball machines in the late 90's. And when I was a kid, I did try to make Coleco style arcade machines out of them using a shoebox and a Print Shop created marquee.

[@ddespair]

I had the tiger street fighter game when it came out. The secret to getting priority attacks and *ahem* combos is timing. You want to strike as soon as your opponent has finished one of their own moves, not try to beat them to it unless it’s a hadouken. Once you land a hit the opponent gets i frames, so you have to time it so you hit them as soon as they are done flashing and you can get like three consecutive, unanswered hits in.
