Sega Game Gear – Features
The Sega Game Gear was a revolutionary system for its time. Technologically superior to its competition, the console packed quite a punch and was regarded as one of the most powerful handheld systems of its time. It also was one of the first systems to look at ergonomics: its rounded edges and longer length make playing it far more comfortable than other handhelds.A Powerhouse Of ...The 4th Generation

Great backlit color graphics beat GameBoy Color by miles (can play in dark with no problem). Great games (Sonic)! Only problem is battery life. Buy rechargeables, AC adapter, and DC car cable, then it’s no longer a problem (it’s what I did)!
Better than Game Boy better screen. No need for a light, for the dark. 6 batteries… needed but game gear is worth it. Trust me i have 2. my favs are Sonic and S2. Hands down its the best handheld yet… had color before gameboy ;)
You know it. The sega Game Gear.
This is a great system,I just bought it yesterday at Ames, Its a great system has Great sound,Graphics and games. Compared to Super Gameboy,The Pocket,Color and Advance, and Neo Geo It IS a 5 out of 5 star system, And this does not need a light like those do.. Want a load of fun… Gamegear is Your Thing!
Well packaged. Works great. It took me right back to junior high school sports trips playing game gear in the bus.
I am very happy with this product and I recommend service
Bad was broken
I ended up selling my GBA to get this. I personaly like it because of the Sonic Games, but there are over 200 games to fit your taste in games. I bought a used Sonic 2 cart with it and a AC Adapter. You really need an AC Adapter or you’ll be spending $100 each year to get batteries, since it sucks them up in less than an hour. You should also get a carrying case because its too big to fit in you’re pocket. The other good thing about it is that it has a built in light behind the screen. So you don’t have to go buy a Wormlight like for Game Boy Color and stuff. I recamend it to anyone who is strong enough to pick it up.
Screen doesn’t work
I have had my Gamegear since 1993, and it is great. Now, the system has brilliant colors, fantastic sound capabilities (sound quality will vary from game to game…some games will sound great, and some games will sound like …), fantastic graphics capabilities (as with sound, graphic quality will vary from game to game…some games will look great, and others will look like …), a perfect layout of the thumbpad and buttons, and a variety of peripherals. One of the most outstanding peripherals available for the Gamegear is called the Master Gear Converter (also called the Gear Master Converter). This device plugs into the Gamegear cartridge slot and has a screw that screws into the Gamegear’s rear screwhole (the screw holds the converter in place). What the device does is allow you to play almost ANY game made for the Sega Master System (BTW the Gamegear is considered by many to be a portable SMS…they have similar hardware specs)! Needless to say, SMS games which required the Sega 3D Glasses (such as Zaxxon 3D or Missile Defense 3D) will not work with the converter because the 3D Glasses cannot be plugged into the Gamegear. And some SMS games are not available on Gamegear (Altered Beast, a SMS game I have, was not made for the Gamegear, but when you add the converter, you now have Altered Beast on Gamegear!).Gamegear has hundereds of games, and when you add the Master Gear/Gear Master converter, you will have a ball! In closing, Gamegear is a great classic system!
