Title: Game Gear
Post by: HiTmaN on July 31, 2003, 07:28:55 PM: Has anyone owned a Game Gear? I had one after I told my mom my Gameboy broke because it was black and white, so we returned and got a Game Gear which was worse because it used 6 batteries and they only lasted for like 4 hours. Anyway at my local Toys R Us they are selling em for $30 on the clearence game isle. Are there any quality games worth getting? And is the recharger thing worth it? I just love the way it looks...don't know why.

Teddy Boy, Wonder Boy In Monster Land/World, Sonic Chaos, Jurrassic Park, Tempo JR, Ristar, Powerstrike, Itchy & Scratchy Mini Golf, Golden Axe Warrior, Panzer Dragoon Mini, Psychic World, Bubble Bobble... Plenty.

I myself have never owned a Game Gear, but one of my best friends did many a year ago. Good times. You may want to invest in an AC adaptor, though.

I've learned the majority of its good games via the Master System (90% of Game Gear games were also on Master System) and good ol' emulation.

And if you find a TV Tuner, QUICKLY buy it. It's become one the hardest things to ever find on Game Gear now. Basically, it let you watch TV on your Game Gear. Full colour.

Biggest mistake EVER.
