The Sega Game Gear Appreciation Thread
 

A GAME GEAR!! I finally got a sega Game Gear. Today, My friend phoned me up and wanted me to See if i knew anyone who wanted to buy some things, Surprise was that among the items mentioned was a Sega Game Gear.

An even bigger surprise is that I got it for 40 Dollars (canadian)!!! All I got right now is the system and A copy of sonic the hedgehog ( I love those games). The only things I lack are Batteries that will keep the thing running for more than 20 seconds (just long enough to get through the first level) and A Wall Adapter so I wouldnt need to worry about batteries. Yet I am content and my 10 year, uneventful quest is now almost finished.

Congrats! Its always great to pick up a piece of gaming you never had when it was fresh. I've been trying to find a Game Gear for quite awhile.

i had a game gear when it was released :x

I got one with FIFA, Chakan, And MK 2. I got the system for 12 $ and it came with the AC adapter. I just have problems with starting it up, but it's cool and playable, I love it.

I was just wondering, Is it true that a sega Genesis adapter will work in the Game Gear. Cause that would really help in my search for an Adapter for this thing.

Amazon Marketplace has a used one that's 15 bucks.

I don't know.

$40 seems alot for a gamegear, he should have just given it to you - it's not like anyone else would want to buy it.

i would love to get a sega nomad (portable megadrive/genesis) for the sheer novelty factor (oy just use a psp homebrew emulator)

You should have gotten a neo geo pocket ;)

My little brother has my game gear.

Game Gear was and is the greatest, however, I was unaware Chakan was available for it. It was always my favourite platformer.

NEO GEO POCKET COLOR! :eek

Fuck yeah. I saw ads for the Nomad when I was a kid, and I woulda loved to play Genesis games on trips. That's pretty fucking awesome when you think about, considering there have likely been no other handheld systems that served to play console games. Im sure it ate up batteries, though.

i thought this was going to be a thread about jeff the ninja's weiner

worse than the gam gear supposibly

I just got Sonic 2. It is fun.

I have a game gear, nothing great, I liked gameboy a lot better.

The regular version would do but the NGPC would be even fancier! :eek

If I had a NGPC, then I would be playing Samurai Shodown instead of posting here :)

Seriously, I just found this game called Surf Ninjas. it really sucks, which is surprising giving the title has both Surfing and Ninjas. :(

It's based off an equally shitty movie.

I love your avatar dudefather. That movie's hilarious ;(

I remember loving that moving as a kid. I can't believe Lesley Nielson was the badguy (I didnt know that he played the lead bad guy until about a week ago) :lol

thanks, i call it 'incurably insane' :)

Had Rob Schinder, and I think the guy from naked gun.
