Atari Lynx? Sega Gamegear? The OG color portables.

That you could play for all of 30 minutes(exaggeration but the battery life on these things sucked hard.)

Holy shit core memory unlocked. I don't think I ever got past like stage 3 of sonic because that thing DEVOURED batteries, and it was like a full set of 6 AA's, too. Felt like it was cheaper to go to the arcade. Worst console I ever owned!

I was the Nintendo dude in my friends group and my best friend was the Sega dude. So while we had fun back and forths we both got to experience both consoles pretty well. I remember being so happy when my friend got the wall adapter for his game gear lol
