About a month ago, I was at a local The Village (local thrift), and I came across what looked at first like a regular multi-game no-name crappy handheld.  Then, I noticed that it had "Play," "Stop," and "Fast-Forward" buttons on it.  It turns out that the thing also plays audio cassettes.  The games are horrible, which is a real shame, since the tape-playing thing is so cool.  It has a regular internal speaker for game audio and only plays the tape audio via the audio-out.  There is no year on the thing, but it is a:

SPECTRA
9-in-1 Stereo Cassette Game Player
Model No. YEP-275

Call me crazy, but I thought this was kinda cool, especially for the $1.50 I paid for it.  Here are a few pictures:

That does look pretty cool.   Shocked

Does it come with a bunch of Tetris clones on it or what?

There are nine games.  One is a Speedway (O2) clone, one is a Tetris clone, one is a Breakout clone, and the others I don't remember offhand.  I'll check on that later tonight.
