I really wish there was an easy, mod-free way to play Game Gear cartridges on basically any system other than a Game Gear.

I know. The games are so cheap, and I really wish the Retron 5 had included a slot for them. (I still need to get one of those someday...)

I long for a legit way to play my Dragon Crystal and Ax Battler on the big screen. Actually I need to go through my GG games and see what all I have. I came into a trove of them boxed and mint a few years ago.

If it's the Game Gear's screen that bothers you guys:

I've also seen someone put a modern LCD screen in there. I'd love to do that with an old busted one. I'm not touching mine for that. (Mine's the Majesco re-release, which has a better screen, but not much better.)

It is the screen that bothers me (so blurry!), but as I said, I wish there was an easy, mod-free solution.

It's a lot of time and money to spend on a system that I don't have that much love for anyway (so few notable exclusives). That said, the few games I do like for it, I'd love to be able to play elsewhere.

It's a shame there was never a Sega version of the Super Game Boy.

I did a lot of thinking today about my collection. And I've come to my conclusion that I got way off on collecting Sega and I should get back on track with getting genesis games.
I see that gaames for "Nintendo" consoles are too much and the tg16, I see are just as bad. Genesis cart only games I see are starting to rise even by a couple of dollars but it still is rising. Its time for me to stop looking at other systems and games and focus on the genesis. I still have a big list and I am starting with my accessories for my systems. I need 2 genesis 1 model ac adapters, 32x spacer, a decent model 2 system like a va4 system and most importantly a Sega cdx ac adapter. I will never get the one I ordered. I'm also looking for common games to for it I'll look around but I'm building my library right up

What have we learned this week?

All games that qualify as "shooters" must be beaten just as the developer intended in one sitting. Otherwise, you get your RB card taken away. :lol:
