Episode 204 - We finally take a look at Sega's original portable system designed to take on the GameBoy. It's a curious little system that didn't quite reach the same levels of success but still has some fun stuff!

Yeah...that screen was ASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. LCD's in general did not become halfway decent until the mid 2000's. If you replace the screen on a GG with a modern one, you get MUCH better battery life, and most of the games still hold up today. 2D pixel art holds up much better than 3D. You can get quite a lot of GG games on the 3DS Virtual Console too. I have Defenders of Oasis on my 3DS...used to have it for the Game Gear back in the day and had fond memories of it.

I'm watching the whole series in order and I'm surprised about Joe's *apparent* (we all know Joe and Dave are the Sultans of Sarcasm) evolution (not a change: just an evolution) on his opinion about the GG over the course of these 7 years. I had mine back in 1992, enjoyed, loved caressed and finally destroyed it (confound those shitty capacitors!). Bought it back last year (with brand new capacitors... Or so they say) with a nice Everdrive. Never been happier. This channel has everything one can ask for about gaming. Keep on truckin', dudes!

@Marc Carran And most Game Gear games are the same as the Master System versions but at a lower resolution, while almost every non 2D Vita game that was on PS3, let alone PS4, is severily downgraded, so I don't think it's the same case at all for the 2 consoles.

On the Z80: I helped dismantle one of Zilog's two Nampa, Idaho fabrication plants. I wish I would of held on to the wafers we were able to take home but I had no idea what the Z80 was all about, hell I have no idea if the wafers I had were even related to Z80 designs. We had people from Canon come in to help us dismantle and package the 'chip printers' for shipping. I think most of it was headed to Asia. I want to say Korea, perhaps Taiwan- it was some years ago. Anyways the project was ran by some Italians, and they were super awesome, we drank a bunch of Grappa as the project winded down. Again had I know what I know today... I just wish I could of documented what happened. It was local guys like me from Nampa and an outfit that specialized in dismantling industrial places like a Zilog plant and they were out of Texas but brought in people from across the country. The Canon guys we're really nice, I used to talk to them in my ignorance and they at one point told me that the machines being shipped out of country could of been tooled to make "something" like a 386 or so. I dunno, all I know is a Z80 was mentioned and I'm rambling!

Had one of these badboys back in the day. Swapped it for a GameBoy. Not because it was crap (the battery life was atrocious) but because it was so hard to get games in Australia. I'd read about cool new games all the time in magazines & I couldn't even find a copy of Sonic 1. It was like being a Vita owner, only now it's so easy to import.

Defenders of Oasis is one of favorite old school RPGs, mostly because of how simple it is. While very cookie cutter, it does have some unique elements, such as how you level up the Genie, which is done fully by items, and each character having a special move. It’s easy and simple but the music and the grindy gameplay do something for me.

Given it's entirely based on the Master System from just a few years prior, and is even slightly better tech-wise, it's actually impressive how much they were able to shrink it down to even that form factor. But that plus the backlit LCD screen is why it's power consumption on batteries is so rotten. That about sums up nearly all laptops from the time also.

Just be careful fixing one of those things. Basically, when removing the capacitors each leg of the capacitor should pull off the solder pad like it is nothing. If you have to pull up with any kind of force, then there is the risk of a pulled pad which could equal a dead gear. A good soldering station with temperature control also helps a lot.

Game Sack Sonic 1 and 2 are the two Games I played the most on the GG never played TrippleTrouble though. Played the Sonic Chaos Game back then on the Master. Its generic but the first Games that come to mind for me thinking of the Gamegear.

Game Sack, technically not Sonic, but Tails Adventure would be interesting. It's a slower-paced Metroidvania than trying to be a Sonic when the Game Gear doesn't have dat blast processing. :P

Perfect timing. I found a set that included two Game Gears, 13 games (including two on this episode), a case and a link cable, all for $7.99 at a local thrift on Friday. Of course the Game Gears need capacitors replaced but still was pretty surprised to find them like that.

i knew that tingle i felt in my sack wasnt weird, it was an Internal Game Sack Notification! lol i saw Metal Jesus Rocks talk about the Game Gear modding community and i will definitely have to get a new LCD Screen and make sure that i have a power pack, because running on batteries can suck hard with Handhelds. that being said there are quite a few exclusive games on the Game Gear that warrant collecting for it, although not that many.

So weird why the Gamegear doesn’t get more props. Even Dave was giving it some criticism for not sounding as good as the Genesis. Would the Gameboy EVER even be compared to the SNES? Nope I don’t think so. The Gamegear was far superior to the Gameboy.

The Game Gear was the first system I bought 100% with my own money, and the first system I ever had buyers remorse from. I worked all summer cutting yards (which also meant spending the summer sick as I am extremely allergic to grass), and had just enough to buy this (actually my parents pitched in a few bucks - I did not have enough to cover taxes). It came with Sonic The Hedgehog, which I was excited about - it was my first Sega platform, and Sonic is cool, right? And this thing was in color! It was going to squash that ugly Gameboy! Sadly, Sonic ended up being the hardest game I ever played, and it was not fun at all (unlike the Genesis version, which is a blast). Much like Mega Man, it felt like the levels were meant for a larger screen, and it had poor play controls and didn't run that fast. The first boss battle was almost impossible due to poor hit detection and sloppy controls. I never have seen anything other than Green Hills Zone. What was worse was the selection of games I had available to me. I don't recall Toys R Us ever carrying more than 20 games for it, and I did not care for any of those titles. I think in the end we had Sonic and Castle of Illusion, which my brother bought. I thought for sure I would be able to rent games, but the local video store was Nintendo only store, and carried NES, SNES and Gameboy only. Many of the games I was interested in never made it out of Japan. In the end, I had a Super Nintendo and that was where I put most of my game money. I mean, Streets of Rage for the Game Gear, or Final Fantasy IV for the SNES? Yeah easy choice there. Sonic Dash or F-Zero? Zelda 3 or... No there was no choice there. Ninja Gaidan for the Game Gear, or Super Castlevania IV? On long trips, I normally ended up lending out my SNES and borrowing a friend's Gameboy. My brother had his Mickey Mouse on the Game Gear, I had Tetris and Zelda and Final Fantasy Adventures to entertain me. Over time, I bought two Sega platforms, this and the Saturn. Ouch. My brother bought the Genesis and the Dreamcast. Guess who got more use out of their systems? The Game Gear was such a huge disappointment, that I have absolutely refused to buy another handheld. I play games on my phone and on my tablet, but for the most part, most of my gaming is done on the Playstation or the PC (or NVidia Shield)

Awesome episode. I always wished to own a GG back then but only ever got the Gameboy. Now I have my own GG, changed all the capacitors and it's now collecting dust on the shelf. Still love it, though. As I did the ending skid of this one - soooooooooooo cool! keep up the good work guys

One major drawback of the GG is that the game library isn't very exciting overall. And the best games are pretty costly at this point. But man, it was a beast of a system for its time.

I'm 25, I remember my mom bringing home this case with a video game console and some games in it. At the time I was 7, I had noo idea that I had one of the best handheld portable consoles ever.. I ran it off the 12v ac adapter, but I could play sonic, and grand prix allll day. Not sure where it is.. But I wish I could find it. Good good times
