I'm starting to come across some old and unusual LCD games and was wondering if there was a guide to them that is relatively up to date. I found a FAQ that hasn't been updated in ages, but that isn't much help (especially since I can't decipher it.)

Anyone know of such a thing?

I remember someone asking this before, and nobody could find one. Its a given that no matter how rare they are, they wont fetch that much. The only intrest in specific games, I think, would be if they collect that kind of thing, like Simpsons, Godzilla, ect

Well..now this depends. Many of the original handhelds can fetch upwards of 20+ on Ebay. And most of the time the Coleco Tabletop games can hit near $100 or more depending on completeness etc. As for a guide, I haven't ever seen one I am sorry to say.

The closest to a rarity guide I've ever been able to find is this one:

The most desireable handhelds are Nintendo's Game & Watch, which digital Press recently put together a comprehensive rarity guide for:

or the Tabletop Coleco games which i do not know of a rarity guide for.

Most LCD games, unless they are Game & Watch games made by Nintendo are not that collectable. Most won't sell for more than $5 a piece.
