Age check - StrictlyBiz - 04-09-2016

How many of you are old enough to remember or to have had one of these? I was decluttering the basement and going through some old boxes and found this from my childhood. Threw in 3 AA batteries and was surprised to see that it still works.

I have this one and it still works.
Uses 9v.

RE: Age check - bfine32 - 04-09-2016

Open it up, clip the speaker wire, and play it at school.

I have that one too. In perfect condition.

The little bastard still works like it was made yesterday.

Don't know what happened to mine. Lost it years ago. But good memories of playing it under the bedcovers long after the parents went to sleep.

So I am not quite old enough for these particular handheld games, but I remember the next generation of them. The Tiger Electronics handheld games, specifically.

I am even older than you guys. Any of you old enough to remember playing with one of these?

Ditto.

It lives in the basement in a cabinet, and every time I find it I play for an hour, then it goes back in its spot for another 8 months or so.

Those were bogus; the Coleco one was where it was at. You had blockers and could pass.

You can pass on that Mattel one. The first one you could not.

RE: Age check - StrictlyBiz - 04-10-2016

The Mattel ones were better than the one that I have. All that I can do is go up/down/left/right.

My son couldn't understand "how 6 LED lights is considered football?" I told him that we had to use our imagination. Kids don't know how good they've got it now. Hilarious

We did that too. I guess the technology was so poor that we still did the real thing out in the yard.

We even drank out of the hose when we needed water. Shocked

X's and O's boys. That's how football is charted.

Which reminds me of this old ass game. Frickin' classic man.

RE: Age check - Nately120 - 04-10-2016

I had that and the hockey one, but I have to admit they were handed down to me from older cousins so I'm aged but not quite THAT aged. Atari football was more my time frame, but the Tecmo Super Bowl games my cousin and I had were the bomb. Boomer and the Bengals take on Warren Moon and the Oilers (we lived outside of Pittsburgh but hated the Steelers) in TECMO SUPER BOWL MADNESS!!!!!

I also recall a version of these games appearing in the 1981 film Friday the 13th Part II.

Super Techmo Bowl has caused the untimely death of many controllers.
