what LCD handhelds (not just Tiger ones) did /vr/ have back in the day?

Double Dragon 2 (actually pretty fun considering it was a fucking tiger game)
early 90s obscure tetris game (one of the first lcd versions I reckon)
Game Child (pretty sure it was the missile attack one)
some multicart one with 4 separate game carts

not into collecting myself, but am occasionally tempted by the thought of a modest collection of shitty licensed Tiger ports of popular 80s/90s games just for the novelty alone

just a bunch of complete shit
i recently picked up one of those coleco mini arcades with the lsi screens on them though, pretty slick. got pacman for $5 at a yard sale and it works great and is in good condition. not the best version of pacman but it's got some interesting features like two players on the same board.

I never liked them and always though they were shit

Still somehow I ended up with a used Ninja Gaiden Tiger. I think I found it on the ground somewhere.

I played the Ninja Gaiden one a fair amount and ESPECIALLY Gauntlet, which is probably the best one I ever played.

I have Star Wars Imperial Assault, which I think is about as good a game as you can hope for those to get.
I also "inherited" Road Race from my older brother.

This entertained me for countless hours on a hour and a half bus ride due to living in rural iowa.

Also, I just picked up a Lights Out game from a thrift store for $1.50. It's pretty interesting though I'm still learning.

Also, I had (as a kid) and still have a super mario world lcd watch. That was pretty fun back then too. I'm surprised it didn't give me hearing damage with how loud the beeps are.

i never had any of them because i had a gameboy, and compared to that the tiger games were hot garbage.

my buddy had a bunch of them, but the one i remember the most was the mortal kombat one where he could swipe a card through it and change the character he played as. i thought that was a cool as fuck feature. the game still sucked, though.

I may have been poor as a kid but I had enough sense to choose to do something else with my free time than to play with these handhelds.
