game gear

came out in 1990(91 in the states) and yea it's well known as a battery hot eating 6 AA batteries in like 2 hours. but did color way before nintendo. 8 bit but looked better than gameboy games and could play master system games on it.

but think a lot of it was nostalgia cause a friend had it and i never did and i remember it looked much better but just watched a vid on sonic 2 and yea you can tell it's just good 8 bit graphics and doesn't look like the genesis version like i remember but still think it's cool for a color portable system ahead of it's time.
