Tiger Game.com
Released by Tiger Electronics, a company notorious for it's calculator-tier beeping plastic “games”. Unsurprisingly, it's September 12th, 1997 release in the USA was marred with complaints and negative reception, due to it's paltry specifications. Even though it sold for cheap, the Game.com used an 8-bit Sharp SM8521 CPU, paired with a 200×160 monochrome screen and some unknown amount of RAM. For some reason, Tiger had a touchscreen specifically included in this device, which did it absolutely zero favors due to the poor quality of capacitive screens at this time. Even it's inclusion of internet connectivity wasn't enough to give the Game.com any significant sales figures, probably because the net capabilities were fumbled and clunky.
