Long before the Game Boy, Nintendo DS, or even the Atari Lynx, handheld electronic games were already finding ways to bring gaming on the go. This time, we're taking a look at the Tomytronic Tennis handheld from 1980—a fascinating piece of gaming history that put an electronic tennis match right in the palm of your hand. If you enjoy retro gaming, vintage electronics, handheld history, and obscure gaming curiosities, you're in the right place. What handheld electronic games do you remember from the pre-Game Boy era?

Shop PixelFX: https://genxgrownup.com/pixelfx The Morph 2K is Pixel FX's newest addition to the Morph video scaler lineup. The Morph 2K converts low resolution analog sources (240p up to 1080p input), to 1080p/1440p HDMI at 60Hz and 4:4:4 color resolution. Using powerful auto-sampling techniques, magic-lock, and it's easy to use fully-custom video scaler, the Morph 2K brings out the best from your video game consoles. The Morph 2K supports high quality composite, s-video, scart, component, and VGA input signals. It does this via the dual video input ports: mini-din (s-video) + triple RCA, and a universal SCART input. VGA signals can be used with Pixel FX's passive VGA2SCART adapter (sold separately). The Morph 2K has a comprehensive audio input system, supporting both analog and digital inputs. The Morph 2K isn't just about high quality video features, it also contains useful modern features thanks to onboard WiFi and SD card support. This enables easy updates over WiFi, advanced control of the Morph 2K through our Web Interface. On the Web Interface you can export/import profiles, and have access to design tools like the Slotmask creator which can do live mask creation/editting. The SD card can be used for profiles, updating, and other extended file support. With the USB-A serial peripheral control port, your Morph 2K can better integrate into your setup by being able to communicate with future switching devices like the Infinity Switch. #retrogaming #hardware #video #genxgrownup - SHOP Shop PixelFX: https://genxgrownup.com/pixelfx http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Morph2K 02:30 Hardware Tour 05:11 Plugged In 06:32 Main Menu 08:15 Video Out Settings 10:38 Presets 12:30 Retro FX 14:57 Web UI 16:48 My Setup 19:35 New Preset 20:25 World 1-1 21:10 Summary

Shop X-Arcade: https://genxgrownup.com/xgaming BurgerTime has long been considered one of the best arcade conversions available for the ColecoVision, but after spending some time with it on Friday Plays, I discovered something I wasn't expecting. Not only does this home version faithfully recreate the classic Data East arcade game, but in some ways it may actually control better than the original. The movement feels precise, the ladder navigation is predictable, and the overall experience is remarkably polished for a game released over 40 years ago. #retrogaming #arcade #burgertime #genxgrownup - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com

Shop Fizz: https://genxgrownup.com/shopfizz Every time we cover a Pac-Man handheld or any Pac-Man gadget really, anything that has a standalone version of Pac-Man in it, I invariably get viewer comments that ask often condescendingly and rhetorically, but it will ask, "Really? How many times are they going to give us Pac-Man again?" Well, if you strip away the baggage from that, it is a valid question. And in looking at this new color handheld from Fizz, I'm going to try to answer that question and more. #pacman #retrogaming #handheld #genxgrownup - SHOP Shop Fizz: https://genxgrownup.com/shopfizz http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Pac-Man Again? 00:44 Reasons Why 02:25 Why This One? 03:39 Box & Contents 07:15 Hardware Tour 09:02 WIN a Pac-Watch! 09:55 Power On 12:43 Screen 15:20 Act I 16:26 High Score? 17:07 Summary
