I’m surprised that they made handhelds! I was always under the impression that Soviet video games were more like experimental curiosities than a visible industry. The situation was similar in the Anglosphere back in the 1950s and ’60s: there was not much of a market for them, so they were hard to find (unless you were a computer scientist).

It wasn’t a huge industry, but it was past experimental stages, there were even arcades around. https://arcadeblogger.com/2019/06/15/the-museum-of-soviet-arcade-games/
