That looks like best Tiger handheld game that I have seen. Most Tiger games are million dollar artwork, million dollar advertisement, 10 cent gameplay.
This show makes me time travel! It's a weeknight after 9:00 PM in 1989 and I'm in my room under the blankets clenching a flashlight in my teeth whilst playing Gameboy... I still curse the fact it wasn't backlit. Cheers!🍻
I recently watched all the Terminator films and now I'm OBSESSED. I just found this channel through Twitter. Good stuff. I gotta admit, for a Tiger game, it DOES look kinda fun.
That's awesome! Welcome aboard, my friend! I'm so glad you're enjoying the show. It's been a lot of fun so far, and I have a TON of episodes planned, ALL about The Terminator and T2 - so stay tuned! 😎👍🏼
holy shit! I just found your channel tonight! I was looking for videos on the T1 Tiger handheld and found your page! I'm going to make a retro man cave full of 80's action movie stuff from T1, T2, Rambo, Robocop, Predator... VHS tapes + games, popcorn machines... you get the idea. I love this channel!
"Fight your way through Terminators. Save the world." - Truth be told, I had no idea that this game existed before this episode and your posts. And I loved the Tiger handheld games. Cool deep dive on Terminator!
Oh really? That's awesome! I'm glad I could bring this little gem to light for you. And I'm glad you're a fellow appreciator of Tiger Handheld games, haha! It's gotten really trendy to bash them for being terrible - and sure, many of them WERE terrible - but some of them were really good, and I think they deserve credit for that.
Oh wow, thanks so much! Comments like that are my #1 source of fuel for this show, and makes the stupidly excessive amount of time I spend on it worth it, haha. Thank you so much!
@@studmuffin3417 Oh, good! I'm really glad it's starting to show up for people. Growing an audience has been the hardest part of this so far, but it's steadily growing. And thanks again for the compliments! I don't make any money on this - all I want out of it is for people to be entertained, haha.
Hell yeah! I'm thrilled to hear that! This was a legitimately good Tiger handheld game... any time someone disparages Tiger handhelds in general, I have to bring this one up, because they weren't all bad, and this one is a prime example of a good one.
Those *Tiger Handheld LCD ganes* were the bomb back in the day! But here in Brazil they were called "Minigames* and had no trace of the name Tiger on them. They were licenced by a Brazilian company called Tectoy, which was the same company that distributed the Sega Genesis (using the European name Megadrive). Only recently I learned they were called Tiger games in the US by watching an AVGN episode about them. Speaking of which, I sensed a huge inspiration from him on this episode. Well done! Just watch out for that fucking hot tea! What were you thinking?! 😉
That's some really cool info, thanks for sharing that! Very interesting. As far as your comment about inspiration from AVGN... believe it or not, I actually have no idea what that is! I'm assuming it's a gaming channel? The only research I did on this game was sesrching for images of the package artwork. Otherwise I didn't need inspiration, since I had the game growing up and loved it, so I've been looking forward to covering it for awhile. 😁
Oh! Angry Video Game Nerd! It just hit me! You know, I wouldn't say he's a direct inspiration, because I've only seen two or three of his videos over the years, and it's just been a long time. And I don't know why that is, because we definitely have very similar senses of humor. I think he's just somehow been off my radar. I definitely need to check out more of his stuff! From the couple of his videos that I've seen, he's definitely up my alley!
@@Tfor2show L9L. I was so sure about it because you dropped that F bomb in exactly the same way as he does haha. That was what I was referencing when I also dropped the F bomb and said the *what were you thinking?! " line. I apologize for that then, it must have sound kind of weird out of context lol. Yeah Angry Video Game Nerd is what got me hooked on TH-cam videos some time ago. Its creator, James Rolfe, is an amazing dude. And you are right, your sense of humor is quite like his, as is mine. He has great reviews on terminator movies as well as angry video game nerd episodes about terminator games. You could use them as a gateway drug haha. Also I CAN'T HIGHLY recommend the Pepsi Man Game episode! Actually you could start with it. You will know why when you watch it. 😉
@@jeremyburdge8573 I hear you! Same here. When we finally got a Game Boy, it was because they had been around for awhile and dropped significantly in price, haha.
I have this game! It's the only Tiger game I have that I keep batteries in because I actually still play it. It doesn't get as much play as the arcade game, but it's fun and is easy to display. BTW, love the Cryoco t-shirt! I've never seen that before.
Same here! I've been doing my best to convince people that this Tiger Handheld is actually a fun, playable game... unlike almost all the others, haha. And I'm glad you like my shirt! I made it myself. If you ever find yourself in need of one, they're available on the Tfor2 store! TeePublic.com/user/Tfor2show
Oh wow, that's awesome! Thank you so much! Those are some of my favorites - I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! And hey, if you ever feel like sharing, I'd love to see your shirt collection!
In fact, I like this game so much I put it on a new t-shirt design for the Tfor2 store! www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/7602820-the-terminator-tiger-handheld-game-1988
They definitely hit their peak in the early 90's! But if I'm not mistaken, I think the very first Tiger LCD game was a football game that came out in the really late-70's. I could be wrong, though... it might have been released in the early-80's.
I also look forward to seeing you cover the Terminator games. Terminator games are hit and miss, but there's some very good and even excellent ones. My all-time favorite is RoboCop Vs. The Terminator for the Genesis, which actually feels complimentary to both series and not just a typical cash-in movie tie-in game.
Yes sir! He did a TON of Japanese commercials in the late 80's and early 90's, and this is by far the most calm one, haha. Most of them are totally insane, and I can't wait to do an entire episode on them in the future. I've got a lot of Japanese memorabilia from his time doing Japanese ads that I can't wait to share, too!
@@thunderbear9418 HA, that's brilliant! Man, that brings me back... using things like that as other accessories for action figures. That's awesome! Thanks for sharing that memory, man!
Hey man! Good question. Eventually I'll be covering ALL of the vintage Terminator games (as well as all the vintage toys)! 😎👍🏼 I'm just not sure when... But as of now, I'm thinking within the next few episodes I'll likely end up covering the original The Terminator video game for the NES! 🤘🏻
That takes me back. My parents wouldn't buy me a Gameboy so I did have quite a few of these Tiger games. Most did suck. I didn't have Terminator, but I remember having Gauntlet and Street Fighter 2. Compared to most, that Terminator one doesn't seem bad.
Oh, I forgot to mention that, didn't I? Damn. Oh well. Basically up just advances you forward.... so you can run past the infiltrators without killing them. But then obviously you won't have as high of a score. But you can only run past the infiltrators... so if there is a laser tower, terminator arm, or big endoskeleton on screen, pushing the up button won't do anything. I'm pretty sure the down button just doesn't do anything, but I could be wrong on that one. Can't imagine what it would do, though. Thanks for the great question! I'll have to check out Heavy Barrel... never heard of that one!
HAHA! I'm glad you enjoyed that. I wasn't sure if people were going to make that connection. There was also a packet of "Burn Jel" in the background that no one has commented on yet, haha. Not sure if anyone has noticed it yet.
@@oddpodshow Oh cool, I'll check that out if I can get one! The others that I remember for sure enjoying as a kid were Batman Returns and The Simpsons (the big blue one with pink and yellow buttons). I highly recommend both of them. Other than that, I don't remember any good ones, haha.
Oh, and Terminator 2 is actually pretty fun, too! But it wasn't by Tiger; it was by Acclaim. Never played that one until I was an adult, and I was pretty impressed! I'll be reviewing that one in the future also.
Shame to hear your parents dropped the ball! A child raised without Tiger Handheld games is a child raised without love. 😔 So which one did you have? And was it any good? Thanks for the comments - I'm so glad you're enjoying the show!
@@Tfor2show "I get no respect at all! I tellya!" Well, it was my fault for not being cool enough. :) It was a football game and I enjoyed it. Ironically, the ones I wanted were the ones you showed in the video. :)
HA, nice to see someone dust off a little Dangerfield. 😂 That made my day! Regarding the Tiger Handhelds I showed in the video - last time I checked (which admittedly was awhile ago), you could still get them fairly cheap on eBay! People sometimes ask way too much for The Terminator, but if you're patient, you can still snag one for around $20 every now-and-then. I'm not sure if The Terminator or Batman Returns is my favorite, though... They're both a lot of fun!
Another one I enjoyed was my brothers Simpsons game, where you play as Bart on his skateboard, and you're trying to avoid stuff. We also had a TMNT game, but I don't remember it being too great. I think that might have been all we had. 🤔
You bet! They're not too hard to find on ebay. Just don't be fooled if you see crazy high asking prices... they don't actually sell for that much. Loose and in working condition, they're worth around $25-40 USD. Good luck! 😎👍🏼
I prefer the original 1988 heavy barrel tiger game that this was a rebranded clone of. The G.I Joe style art work on the side panels was more appealing. Some one should make a comparison video to show the differences in game play
@@earthangelz My brothers and I had maybe six or seven Tiger handhelds growing up, but Heavy Barrel wasn't one of them. I've actually never heard of it until now, so I'm glad you brought it up! Of all the comments I've received on this video thus far (and on all the social media posts I've made about this game), you're the first person to mention that game. I try to be as comprehensive as possible on every topic I cover here on the show, so I'd certainly have mentioned it within the episode had I heard of it. One of these days when I get around to covering Acclaim's Terminator 2 handheld game, I'll definitely be making a little addendum to this video and giving you credit for bringing it to my attention. Thanks!
@@Tfor2show For me it was the other way around , I only found out about the Terminator version of Heavy Barrel a year ago! I also only had a few Tiger games, but after getting Heavy Barrel I knew no other Tiger game would surpass it!
@earthangel1457 Ha, I don't blame you there! The Terminator clone is definitely the most fun Tiger game I've played. Now I'll be looking for my own copy of Heavy Barrel to pick up!
@@Tfor2show only the first and second parts, since all this is costly, I buy what I can afford, mainly in English and Russian. By the way, do you have 2 part for psp?
@@bublik462 Yes sir, I do have T2 for PSP! You're the only other person who I've met who collects these films the same way that I do! Which regions/languages do you have of T2?

Gotta love money-hungry companies cashing in on properties with pretty terrible products. Terminator was never designed to be a "kids game" and this video demonstrates why. Thanks for showcasing it but damn Tiger Electronics, LTD. to hell!
Hey! If you've got a problem with Tiger Electronics, you've got a problem with me!! ✊🏼 Haha, just kiddin', Edward! Most of their games were indeed pretty bad.
Damn, that's a good question! I can't believe I never thought about that. I guess I always just kind of assumed that you're either playing a generic Resistance soldier or Kyle Reese... even though nothing about your character's look suggests that it's Reese... So I suppose it could be John! I don't think the packaging or instruction manual ever specifies who you are.
Hey, Twin Doofus! For some reason I didn't see this comment until now. I burned my hand on that no-good tea at the beginning... that bone-headed cameraman must have made it too hot. I bet he did it on purpose... (Don't worry, I didn't really burn my hand... it was just for the show, haha.)
Haha, that's for sure! This is a much, um... simpler game. Wait... I guess the arcade shooter is just a shooter. So I guess the fancy arcade game is actually the simpler game, isn't it? Wow, never thought about that.
Damn, I should have mentioned that in the episode! As long as there aren't any laser cannons or terminator arms or boss endoskeletons on the screen, you can use it to run past the Infiltrators and skip killing them. So you can get through those areas quicker. But you lose out on the points you get from killing them. I think that's the only purpose of it.
@@Tfor2show They are definitely more sleek looking. But gameplay-wise it's mostly "move left and right". The two-screens are something else though - the Zelda one is great!
Haha, you're right about that! I feel like there weren't many that were just "okay" - they were either awesome, or awful. And most of them were awful, haha.
That looks like best Tiger handheld game that I have seen. Most Tiger games are million dollar artwork, million dollar advertisement, 10 cent gameplay.
Haha, exactly! I genuinely enjoy this one, along with Batman Returns.

@earthangel1457 Ha, I don't blame you there! The Terminator clone is definitely the most fun Tiger game I've played. Now I'll be looking for my own copy of Heavy Barrel to pick up!
I thought I was the only one))) that collects the first and second part of different regions and on different data carriers
You mean the Terminator movies? You collect them from different countries too??
@@Tfor2show
only the first and second parts, since all this is costly, I buy what I can afford, mainly in English and Russian. By the way, do you have 2 part for psp?
@@bublik462 Yes sir, I do have T2 for PSP! You're the only other person who I've met who collects these films the same way that I do! Which regions/languages do you have of T2?
@@Tfor2show T2 VHS(Russia),, T2 (USA - skynet edition), T2 (USA- 2017 (2D)), T2 (psp), T2 (Russian 4:3), T2 (USA- dvd ultimate edition )
@@Tfor2show Can you dump the movie or show the menu as it looks on psp?
do you have such a disc with this menu? th-cam.com/video/MG3IxtPXIBA/w-d-xo.html
And on the way 2 part on HDDVD true German edition)))
Gotta love money-hungry companies cashing in on properties with pretty terrible products. Terminator was never designed to be a "kids game" and this video demonstrates why. Thanks for showcasing it but damn Tiger Electronics, LTD. to hell!
Hey! If you've got a problem with Tiger Electronics, you've got a problem with me!! ✊🏼
Haha, just kiddin', Edward! Most of their games were indeed pretty bad.
Two cybernetic thumbs up 😂
Best I could come up with on the spot with that damn cameraman staring at me, haha.
So are you supposed to be playing as John Connor?
Damn, that's a good question! I can't believe I never thought about that. I guess I always just kind of assumed that you're either playing a generic Resistance soldier or Kyle Reese... even though nothing about your character's look suggests that it's Reese... So I suppose it could be John! I don't think the packaging or instruction manual ever specifies who you are.
What happened to your hand
Hey, Twin Doofus! For some reason I didn't see this comment until now. I burned my hand on that no-good tea at the beginning... that bone-headed cameraman must have made it too hot. I bet he did it on purpose...
(Don't worry, I didn't really burn my hand... it was just for the show, haha.)
Wow. Very neat. Not quite as spectacular as the arcade shooting game with that impossible truck level at the beginning...
Haha, that's for sure! This is a much, um... simpler game.
Wait... I guess the arcade shooter is just a shooter. So I guess the fancy arcade game is actually the simpler game, isn't it? Wow, never thought about that.
What was the point of going forward? Was that something useful? I newer knew...
Damn, I should have mentioned that in the episode! As long as there aren't any laser cannons or terminator arms or boss endoskeletons on the screen, you can use it to run past the Infiltrators and skip killing them. So you can get through those areas quicker. But you lose out on the points you get from killing them. I think that's the only purpose of it.
@@Tfor2show Thanks! Now I'm way mouch smarter.
@@mindegy171 Damn right! You can put that on your resumé!
I don’t get why the Tiger games are so hated compared to the single screen Game & Watch. The latter are usually much less varied.
Oh really? I always thought those Game & Watch's looked cool, but I've never played one.
@@Tfor2show
They are definitely more sleek looking. But gameplay-wise it's mostly "move left and right". The two-screens are something else though - the Zelda one is great!
nice tee. , I don't believe I played this game back in the day but my experience with handeld tiger lcd games is that most of em sucked lol.
Haha, you're right about that! I feel like there weren't many that were just "okay" - they were either awesome, or awful. And most of them were awful, haha.
Why don't you call yourself 'uncle Bob' ?
Because my parents named me "Your Uncle Casey."
Oh, so you used the mute button at bed time, huh????? Sneaky!
It doesn't mean I didn't love my momma! Just wasn't ready for bed yet. 😁
A good one is Mega Man 3
Oh really?? I've always been curious of how those Mega Man games turned out on these handhelds. I'll have to track one down to try out!
I owned this game as a kid
Nice! Do you remember enjoying it?
