Game Boy and Game Gear both dropped around a time in my adolescence to teach me the value of money by way of A) Not owning either one, and B) learning how much batteries actually cost. It was actually a really great lesson, and my Dad got my brother and sister involved so we all understood that in theory the money we would "save" could go to buying or renting NES games. It's actually a fond memory I still have despite the fact that we were all getting news we didn't want to hear.

I was lucky enough to have both the Game Gear and GAMEBOY growing up. Although, I have many more memories of playing the GAMEBOY, it was partly due to the Game Gear having dead batteries. I didn't have many games but I remember I did have sonic 2 and a Tetris style game called "Collumns". God I miss the 90s.

The Game Gear also had a couple really cool Shinobi games, some solid X-Men titles, and literally ALL the best Power Ranger games. I loved this system so much.

Here in Brazil we enjoyed all of these games without having a GameGear! The Master System was such a successfull console, that Sega adapted GameGear games all the time. 3 Mortal Kombat games were released.

What I love about Defenders of Oasis is how it's a classic JRPG set in a middle eastern fairy tale world, that's totally for me. My one complaint is that there are no explanations of what each item does so I have no idea what heals and such.

Love your Switch stuff, but your retro videos were what got me into watching you on KZread.

My first system! And still collecting for it to this day. Great to see RGT talking about my beloved GG. Great video!

Finally some retro vids 🙌 only reason why I watched your channel - keep up the good work and don’t forget where you started 👍

Only thing better then your retro videos is your sega videos. Great detail and your love of sega shines just a little.

I need to fix my game gear. I love watching your videos and admire your confidence. I'm taking notes so I can be more comfortable on camera myself

I grew up with alot of these for the Master System 😊. Both the Master System and the Game Gear are such underrated consoles. C'mon Sega! How about a Master System Mini!?

I'm watching it finally. Merry Christmas RetroGameTube 85

I dont see many Game Gear videos on YT. So thanks for taking the time to show us some great games for the system. Its awesome to see love for the GG and 32X. Cheers.

legit bro keep it up i grew up in the 90s so man this is amazing

I love videos like this one RGT85!

When I had one I got the TV cartridge that allowed me to watch TV since those frequencies aren’t in use anymore it doesn’t work sadly.

Nice!!! Keep up the awesome work with retro games! Thanks

Awesome!! So glad you did this video the game gear was great. Not many videos out there on the GG hopefully you'll do a follow up on more gems. Great job.

It's also worth noting that the Game Gear isn't region locked, and the different regions had unique game libraries. No matter where you live there is an awesome import library that is actually pretty affordable compared to most systems. Half the fun of collecting from the system is ordering stuff from Japan, Brazil, and the UK for less than most NES collectors pay for their domestic games.

I’ll never forget getting the game gear for Xmas when it released, I was so excited. I popped the 6 aa batteries in it fired sonic up, and within a lil over an hour the batteries died lol

Top quality video RGT 85. I never had a Sega GameGear growing up but my Sister and use too play on it but too be honest I can't remember what I played lol. Definitely more Retro vids in 2020 bud 👍.

Growing up, I only ever saw one person, an older teenager, with a Game Gear. Tiger handhelds were much more common with kids my age at the time. I was one of the lucky few that owned some of them as well as a Gameboy. Okay enough rambling. Good video RGT. Keep the nostalgia/retro vids coming.

SEGA have done a really interesting work between Game Gear and also the Nomad. Some decades ago I had my claws on a Nomad, but use it full AC to the wall. The 6 AA battery consumption was like having a 1973 Lincoln Continental in your hands.

love these retro videos

I miss these types of videos. I get why you do the news type videos but it's good to see these types of videos from you again!

I never heard of Tempo Jr. Thanks for showcasing this list of Hidden gems of Game Gear Games. I mean there's bound to be more within any console system/handheld system that is overlooked. Keep up the great videos like this one.

Thank you for the Retro video. I really enjoyed it a lot

Happy New Year Shawn

I had like over 40 games for Gamegear I even had a Gamegear suitcase😂😂 some of my favorites where Shinobo, strider, NBA jam te, Chuck Rock 2, choplifter and X-Men Edit: nice list the only one I heard of was Tails adventure

Love my Game Gear. I usually play it plugged into the wall since the battery life is short. Good video!

Please keep making more retro stuff. It was the reason I subbed and all.

Never heard of any of those, thanks, great video

Love the retro vids!

I never knew the Tails game was a Mertroidvania style, I always just overlooked it. Very awesome video man.

Great vid! More please 🙏

Happy to see the retro video.

I played Psychic force on the GameGear an I loved it great Video man!👍

Love it! Please do more and I would love it if you could put a title at the bottom of the video for each game you’re talking about. I have to try that Tails’ Adventure

Longtime supporter love all these retro videos actually had a game gear and it was a classic system

Sonic Drift 2 was featured on Sonic Gems Collection, which I picked up for GameCube 14 years ago from the time I'm posting this at Toys R Us along with Viewtiful Joe 2. I really enjoyed this one.

Defenders of oasis was honestly amazing. I was lucky enough to have a game gear at the time it was released and that game somehow fell into my hands completely randomly. I could not believe it. Way ahead of its time, cool combat system with initiative (speed) and also spells that you had to find in the actual dungeons for the genie character. Memorable characters, good pacing despite the little grinding required at times, nice twists in the story but more importantly amazingly unique setting. Arabian nights. Nothing more I could ask for as a kid, even the graphics were pretty bonkers for 92 for a handheld device, hugely influential as it was probably the first pure rpg I ever played. Finished it 3-4 times total or something. Thinking about it, it later led to dnd and a way down the rabbit hole when it comes to rpgs. Great memories. Its criminal how underrated this title is, but on the other hand the game gear was never a huge success as a handheld console, and very few games ever released on it, let alone great ones. Thanks for the nice review and memories.

My first rpg. .. was 5 or 6 at the time... loved the Arabian settin... went on to all the final fantasy... but Defender's of oasis is where it all began

one of my all time favorite games is surf ninjas on game gear and if you remember the movie the kid plays a game gear the entire time and the game he plays becomes the game he's living.

My five favorite game gear games are sonic chaotic, streets of rage 2, mega man, sonic drift 2, ninja gaiden 2, outrun Europe.

I never knew Tempo was a grasshopper ! One of the better Game gear vids RGT !

This why I subscribe to your channel at the beginning

Finally! Do More retro reviews!

I still have my Game Gear with a bunch of games. I even have a rechargeable battery for it that probably doesn't work anymore.

I own several game gears (one with led light) and many original games - a very unique system. Unbelivable for that time and really expensive. But the Atari Lynx was also very good!

Yeah! Great video man! More retro please.

Awesome vid. I loved my Game Gear. My fav was Chuck Rock and Chakan the forever man. Both were on genesis too if I remember.

Me and my siblings all got game gears. Sister had Jurassic Park, I had the X-Men game.

Beavis and butthead was the best game on game gear to me

I remember getting my Game Gear back in '93 for Christmas. I don't know if it's a hidden gem or not but RoboCop vs. Terminator is my all-time favorite game on the system. The graphics are solid and even the music is decent. I actually prefer this version over its bigger brother, the Sega Genesis. 😊

Jurassic Park was awesome. One of my favourite Game Gear games. I love the scenes after you beat a Dinosaur boss!

yes more retro stuff, the only videos I watch

The Game Gear version of Shining Force was the closest thing to strategy I was getting since I didn't have a Genesis at the time. Gorgeous game.

Good job! More retro, please!

Love the retro stuff

Batman!!! That game was dope, even holding the jump button in while falling off an edge to get Batman to glide down with his cape!!! totally awesomeness 👍🏼

Really liked this video. Always loved the game gear. If you were to do more retro stuff, I wouldn't be mad. Still love me some retro.

I still own my original copy of defenders of oasis to this day in fact I still whistle some of the songs all the time. Crystal warriors and shining force were other amazing games.

I saw one a few years back at a thrift store for like 10 bucks. There were some other games there too. I'm pretty sad that I passed on it. The Game Gear always seemed so cool.

I had a limited collection, but recall playing World Series Baseball (although I'm not really a baseball fan) and X-men a lot.

GG Aleste is one of my top Game Gear games. The OST on it slaps
