Probably the most ill-fated handheld conceived, the Watara Supervision was a really nice monochrome handheld comparable to the [[Game Boy]], which it intended to compete with. It ultimately failed merely because of lack of third party support, leaving it with a modest game library.

The Watara Supervision (also known as QuickShot Supervision, Sherion Supervision, Travell Mate, Hartung SV-100, Electrolab Supervision / Hipervision, and Tiger Boy) was a handheld meant to compete with the [[Game Boy]]. Its introduction garnered some attention due to a lower price and larger screen than its more famous rival, a link cable for multiplayer, and a TV-out cable. However, it ultimately failed because of a lack of third party support (as well as a terrible blurry display), leaving it with a modest game library of 69 titles.
Some advantages it had over the Game Boy was it's lower price and being possible to link it directly to a television with a link cable, with it's games being displayed in four colors when linked.

"Portable video game system with giant screen."

The Watara Supervision (also known as QuickShot Supervision, Sherion Supervision, Travell Mate, Hartung SV-100, Electrolab Supervision / Hipervision, and Tiger Boy) was a handheld meant to compete with the Game Boy. Its introduction garnered some attention due to a lower price and larger screen than its more famous rival, a link cable for multiplayer, and a TV-out cable. However, it ultimately failed because of a lack of third party support (as well as a terrible blurry display), leaving it with a modest game library of 69 titles.
