Hey guys, I have an old Tiger Electronics Wheel of Fortune handheld here that has a smashed screen. Is it possible to get a replacement screen for it? I tried searching on Google, but came up with little to no really helpful information at all. Is there anyplace that sells replacement screens?

AFAIK the only way to replace anything on a tiger or similar LCD is to cannibalize another one.

I have a Concentration Tiger handheld with what seems to be the same size screen. The only thing is it might not be a perfect fit because of the static overlay. Hit me up if you think the part could work.

I don't know how the screen could have smashed. My memory of Tiger games is that they are indestructible. If I put some new batteries into it I bet my Sonic Tiger I found a couple months back would boot right back up.

The game was unfortunately dropped on a hard floor, and the screen cracked to uselessness.

I'm still jealous of that Sonic Tiger Sir I have been hoping to come across one.

We had a broken one traded into the game store. Ended up making it a art project.
