    Yet again the Neo Geo Pocket Color, the greatest handheld of its generation, getting absolutely no love. It had a built-in microswitched joystick and had not one but TWO Metal Slug games for it. How badass is that? It needs to be included in the next video!

    • @EB01
      @EB01 Рік тому

      @@Z64bit Hard to say. I don't recall any Neo Geo cabinet having the clicky stick - could have been worn down but the Neo Geo cabinets in NZ were often more DIY than anything official. I don't think that any had clicky sticks.
      For NGP Metal Slug it felt perfect. The stick had a good "click" in it and it felt very satisfying in general. Like I wish I could have a fidget toy of it (but not a real NGP stick as I don't want to wear out an OG part).
      IMO it would be hard to put a clicky stick on a modern handheld, except maybe as a replacement for the D-Pad (i.e. have an analog stick and a clicky stick on Left).
      As for weird. There would be an oddness to use it for any game used to an analog stick over micro-switches.
      Edit: Oh and it's out of the park better than the shallow feeling sticks like on the PSP (I think that NGP clicky stick better than the 3DS Circle Pad).At the time it would have been the absolute best "stick" on any portable.

    Does anyone remember Skannerz, it was like a monster fighting one hander like digimon digivice or Pocket Pikachu, the gimmick was it had in IR scanner where you went around scanning the upc codes and fight evil monsters and turn ‘em friendly and then add them onto your pocket monster team, the premise of this was there were different colors and shapes of scanners all corresponding to different alien factions and you could fight your team against your friends by scanning each other’s IR blaster. This was back in the days of the gameboy color so it had a tiny 2 inch screen and obviously no wifi, but I enjoyed it, it would be fun to see that come back on something like the switch, or I guess Pokémon Go was pretty close to it idk I never got on that train.

    I remember seeing the ads for all but two of these in the Sears Wish Book and fantasizing about them but never getting them. However, I don't think that the CDAB layout is weird for that Tiger handheld since now we've got XYAB and YXBA. No, the weird layout there is with having an on and off button on opposite sides of that row of buttons, start *and* select *and* pause, with pause being next to off, which just sounds like a recipe for disaster.

    Correction* every kid wanted a portable TV as a kid back in the 90s. Even now everyone watches youtube and streaming apps from their smartphone, how is that not the same as watching portible TV. Also i dont think portable TV had anything to do with the Turbografx handheld failing. Turbografx in general was not marketing very well in the US vompared to Nintendo and Sega.
