I love what you did! I'm having a fun time playing these LCD games on mobile, but i have a few issues, sometimes when the screen zooms in to the game, the buttons barley go off screen, so its hard to push them, and another problem is you cannot press 2 buttons at once (at least from what ive played), this caused frustration in games like Donkey Kong .Jr, otherwise, great collection!
Thanks for playing! Touchscreen support on mobile does need improvement and I'm working on a redesign. For now, if you click the lock icon to unlock the camera you can manually zoom using a pinch gesture till the buttons are in a better position on your screen, then click the lock icon again to save that camera position as the default for everytime you play that game.
Thank you for the kind feedback and for sharing your amazing work. I'm so glad to hear you're impressed with what's been done so far and I hope you'll follow along as I continue to make improvements and add more features.
Very nice collection you made, congratulations, just curious, always noticed that Casio has a lot of really good games and only a few are revived, is that for some special reason?
I would love to add more Casio games. The main constraint is finding enough material to be able to produce an accurate simulation of a game, like videos of the gameplay, scans of the packaging and, most importantly, scans of the original instructions. If you know of anyone who owns any of these games and would like to contribute they can get in touch through the community forum.
I've already done some initial work on Submarine Battle which you can preview here, but I still need to find scans of the original instructions before I can continue.
Hello, I never imagined it would be possible to revisit these games, which were part of my childhood again. I saw that there are some, but I was in love with one from Sunwing - RunAway. I even tried to look for it to buy it, but I can't find it or I don't know the right channel to find it. Would it be possible for you to add it?
Thanks for playing and for the great suggestion. Unfortunately there aren't any gameplay videos I can find to recreate the audio and game logic for Sunwing's RunAway. And I would also need to find scans of the original instructions. I will definitely keep looking though.
I found what appear to be a few glitches in the Bandai Burgertime game: the first bug I found can be done by repeatedly pressing the down button while standing above the bottom bun on the first floor; this causes both the top and bottom burger buns to appear, completely eliminating the need to enter the top floor.
The second bug occurs after beating 5 rounds, at which point the enemies and ladder barriers stop moving completely and don't respawn when eliminated.
This effectively allows you to play the game indefinitely, which if you get beyond 19K points causes the score counter to break, though this appears to be a limit of the original unit being unable to display past that number correctly.
Thanks for letting me know and helping to improve the quality of this simulation. I've updated the build with a fix for the issues.
You shouldn't now get a second bun appearing in the bottom plate if you quickly press down multiple times on a bun on the bottom (or top) floor. I also fixed the issue of enemies and ladders not moving after the 5th round. And the score will now cycle back to 0 after reaching 19990 points during a game, which I presume would be the case on the actual hardware. The hiscore displayed at the start of subsequent games will however show as 19990 points.
I would also really like Tiger's fighting games, like Virtua Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter... Some racing games too, like Out Run. I thank you very much for the great work.
Could you make some more Tiger models available? Could you put some Sonic models, especially the rarer models, like Sonic R and Sonic 3D or Sonic Adventure?
Here in Brazil, Tiger mini games were very successful in the 80s and 90s, as they were launched here by Tectoy, so we have a special affection for them.
How are you my brother, are you okay? First, congratulations on the great work, it's incredible, as a fan of mini games, and having played a lot in the 90s, to be able to relive it all again!
Found a Yahtzee bug: if you roll while all dice are held, that locks up the game. From what I remember that should just skip the roll. Ain't the end of the world, since it's still possible to enter a score early; just gotta retrain some decades-old muscle memory lmao
Also, if I remember right, the faster point counting should just require pressing Roll mid-count rather than holding it down (though this might depend on the exact model).
All in all, though, very impressed with the result. Handles almost exactly like I remember. Thanks for the excellent work!
Thanks for reporting the issue! I've fixed it now so it shouldn't lock up when all the dice are held. You can go back to relying on your muscle memory again ;) Thanks for helping to improve the quality of this simulation.
Thanks for playing! The Sonic handhelds are on my todo list, although I still first need to find scans of the manual for Sonic 1 before I can start. See the topic about this in the discussion forum if you know of anyone who can contribute.
I was ecstatic to see Tropical Fish on here. I'd been trying for ages to get it to work on my phone with either Mame or Retroarch.
For the heck of it, I tried searching for Highway from Radio Shack (another LCD game from my childhood)... and I was blown away that it was on here as well!
After THAT, I'm like.... there's no way the Tomy 3D games are on here. Lo and behold... there they are!! I was only slightly disappointed that Planet Zeon wasn't there. If you somehow manage to add that one, you'll have given me the trifecta of LCD games of my youth that eventually formed my love of video games!
This is an amazing collection! Thank you so much for your work!
Thanks for playing and welcome to RetroFab! I'm so glad you're enjoying revisiting these handheld games from your childhood. Hopefully I'll be able to add Planet Zeon to the collection at some point.
Itizso's work is amazing. I hve been visiting here for years now, and I am still blown away by how good these sims still are, and no one comes close. I actually have the Tomy Troninc Thundering turbo, that I bought in 1983 and it still is in great condition. The 3D effect was so cool in the day, and I am really lucky to have several 80s games and Nintendo game and watch bought back then too. I asked Itizso (maybe others did too, if he could add specific sims to the collection, he added Balloon fight, Climber and Mario's Cement Factory sims, when he had a chance, which wasn't really that long after and it really made my nostaligic trip so incredible, especially taking these on the road on my Samsung s24 Ultra, (just got the S25 Ultra today), that play so well. We are blessed by your talent Sir, I have been a long time fan.. Thank you again for the great memories and games !!!
I am genuinely blown away by everything you were able to achieve here with this. Not only are these probably the most easy and accessible way to play pretty much all of these titles but they probably have the most love an attention put into each an every title more than most game compilations I see nowadays! I was actually planning on making a video talking about all of the game and watch games but I was apprehensive as to whether or not I should even do it since some are less accessible than others but thanks to all of this I'll be able not only play literally all of them with ease but be able to record them better than ever before! And the attention to detail is out of this fucking world the fact that you're able to view these games and their boxes in 3D as well read stuff like the instruction manuals as if you got a fully boxed copy of the game is something that genuinely fills me with joy like you wouldn't believe! Like this is the kinda stuff I'd expect from an official game and watch collection for the switch or something so the fact that all of that is here on your browser for anyone to play is something to adore. Kudos to you Itizso Kudos!
Thanks for playing and for the wonderful feedback. It's always nice to hear that all the work that goes into recreating these handheld games is appreciated. All the best with your video!
Amazing work Itizso. Have you ever thought of making your work open source or collaborating with someone to make a VR version of the Tomytronic 3D games with the stereoscopic 3D effect? Being able to pick up the game using the grip controls on an oculus quest for example would be awesome. And players could pull the game towards their eyes to stat the game.
Thanks for playing! If you'd like to contribute you can get in touch by posting in the community forum on the RetroLab companion site. I would love to know what handhelds you have in your collection, especially ones where you might be able to provide scans of the original instructions.
Oh yeah, and also do you have plans on adding Game & Watch Collection 2 and the DSiWare versions of Ball, Flagman, Vermin, Judge, Manhole (New Wide Screen), Helmet, Chef, Donkey Kong Jr., and Mario's Cement Factory (New Wide Screen)?
These games are awesome. Thanks for helping preserve these handheld treasures. I love the extras like the ability to look at the consoles and packaging in 3D and the original instructions. I look forward to the ability to play them offline in Windows.

You've brought me tons of childhood memories! this is so great! thank you!
Can you add Casio Submarine Battle (CG-330) please? Along with Donkey Kong II (1983) it was my favorite.
I've already done some initial work on Submarine Battle which you can preview here, but I still need to find scans of the original instructions before I can continue.
This is very good can you make the original nintendo 2 screens zelda game pls?
Yes, I do plan to add Zelda at some point. You can preview the initial build here.
how long till bomb sweeper and Zelda game and watch will come out.

Can you make the rest of the Mcdonald's lcd games please?
Yes, I will be adding more of them to the collection :)
This is just an amazing work you did here !!!
Congratulations and thanks for this, this website bring me back to childhood.
I would be very interested by an offline app, I read you were creating one, so I can't wait to buy it.
Thanks for playing and welcome to RetroFab! The offline app will be free to download and you can try out an initial prototype here.
Can you make Sonic the hedgehog for Tiger electronics?
I love the Burger time game!
Thanks for the suggestion. I still need to find scans of the original instructions.
There is a playlist of the music in YouTube

Would it be possible to have a left/right view on the Tomytronic 3D games so you can play them in stereoscopic view for the original effect?
I would also really like Tiger's fighting games, like Virtua Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter... Some racing games too, like Out Run. I thank you very much for the great work.

There was a Coleco Tabletop Donkey Kong Junior. which was a direct port of the tabletop/panorama Donkey Kong Jr.

Works perfectly now, thanks!
do you have a license and permission from game devs and publishers
Great work, would love to see Sonic 1, 2, & 3 by Tiger and Bucky O'Hare by Konami if possible, many thanks
Thanks for playing! The Sonic handhelds are on my todo list, although I still first need to find scans of the manual for Sonic 1 before I can start. See the topic about this in the discussion forum if you know of anyone who can contribute.

Tried the Yahtzee, it looks great! Sounds good too. However there's a big bug: you can't remove a hold on a die after you've rolled.
Thanks for reporting the bug... totally missed that in testing. It's now fixed :)
That's incredible! Thank you!
Impressive work! There's a bug in Fire Attack, when you reach 500pts in Game A without a miss, every hit after that triggers Chance mode.
Thanks for the bug report! It's now fixed :)

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll keep the possibilty of adding support for VR in mind :)
I love these games, but can you make some more arcade-like LCD games?
Thanks! I'll try do so.
Bro. This is too much.
Kudos!
I love the colorized variants on the Simpsons ones.
I imagine you are familiar with Pica-Pic (?), you should contact them and join forces.
I have about 100 handhelds if you need any help.
Kudos again. I'm going to share this everywhere =D

Yes :)
