Mega Duck (1993)
A near-clone of the Game Boy hardware, also called Cougar Boy, sold in the Netherlands, France and Germany.
Its Sharp SM83 CPU matched the Game Boy's, but 36-pin cartridges made it incompatible with Nintendo's. About 24 cartridges came out in 1993, mostly from Thin Chen Enterprise under the Sachen and Commin labels. It launched around 129 guilders in the Netherlands.
