Have any of the older Tiger games with the metallic cases been dumped/emulated?
I know Star Castle hasn't, but that's the one I'm thinking of now: (There's links on that page to the other ones of this design that I know of...)
https://www.handheldmuseum.com/Tiger/StarCastleLCD.htmI happen to have 3 of these, two of them have bad LCDs, but the third is good. I'd be willing to sacrifice one of them for chip decapping, and I can send the one with the good LCD for scanning the LCD elements...
Here's the board:

Thoughts on that one? I can always just send the bad one for decapping and see what it is...
