jmjustin6 Posted December 15, 2015 Report Posted December 15, 2015 Thanks to the wonderful rowsdower family i am now the proud owner of a gamegear. I havent ever owned one. I am looking for suggestions on games that are worth playing. All of the sonic games are on the top of my list
AlamoAtari Posted December 15, 2015 Report Posted December 15, 2015 Mortal kombat, James Bond, road rash, shining force series (good RPGs). Pacman, paper boy. There are some good sports games to if you're interested, and airplane shooting games. Get a power adapter or you will burn through a lot of batteries.
jmjustin6 Posted December 15, 2015 Author Report Posted December 15, 2015 Get a power adapter or you will burn through a lot of batteries. Haha i already went through a brand new pack of batteries, but dont worry i already have a ac cable on the way from rows
jmjustin6 Posted December 15, 2015 Author Report Posted December 15, 2015 Oh nice i didnt know there was a james bond. I will definitely pick that one up
jmjustin6 Posted December 15, 2015 Author Report Posted December 15, 2015 I had found a flea market with a man who had about 20-30 games marked $2 each and he told me if i bought them all he would make me deal, but i went there today and they were mostly sold dang!
jmjustin6 Posted December 15, 2015 Author Report Posted December 15, 2015 Hey i got a question. What do you guys know about the tv tuner?
nosweargamer Posted December 15, 2015 Report Posted December 15, 2015 It gets a ad rap sometimes, but I remember liking the Ax Battler game. Super Columns & Dr Robotniks Mean Bean Machine have fun vs computer modes. Sonic Drift is a decent racer. As far as the TV Tuner goes, pretty useless now a days since the transition to HD signals, but I heard you might get a random local channel here and there such as a small religious station or something like that.

Rowsdower70 Posted December 15, 2015 Report Posted December 15, 2015 Glad you got it and I hope you enjoy it! I got my Atari today, so I'll be posting pics in the trade thread. And thanks so much for the giant Christmas card! "For you - Rowsdower from the 70 - have been appointed Omnivisioner of the Game Grid." ~ Atari Adventure Square
jmjustin6 Posted December 15, 2015 Author Report Posted December 15, 2015 No prob. I am happy and cant wait to get the ac cord. Did you get those intv games too? They have been sitting around here for a while now and i wanted to give them to someone that had a n intv but no one i know has one (also no one wanted to trade anything for them haha)
Rowsdower70 Posted December 16, 2015 Report Posted December 16, 2015 I did get them, thanks! "For you - Rowsdower from the 70 - have been appointed Omnivisioner of the Game Grid." ~ Atari Adventure Square
jmjustin6 Posted December 16, 2015 Author Report Posted December 16, 2015 Hmm i was thinking today of somehow moding or wiring in a digital converter box with the tv tuner
Zontar Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 My best suggestion is to get a Master Gear Converter for your Game Gear. This lets you play Sega Master System games on the Game Gear and opens up almost the entire Master System library for the Game Gear except for 3-D, Light Gun, and Sega Card games which are just a few. If you're already collecting for Master System and you play the games this is pretty neat to have.
jmjustin6 Posted January 4, 2016 Author Report Posted January 4, 2016 Wow i actually dont have a master system, but there are a few titles i have been wanting to play and now i can. I did even know this thing existed. Thank a lot man!
RickR Posted January 5, 2016 Report Posted January 5, 2016 I also did not know that existed. I've got to keep an eye out for one of those!
Zontar Posted January 8, 2016 Report Posted January 8, 2016 Yeah they're great to have, especially if you really like Sega Master System. The Game Gear is based on the Master System except the screen size is a bit smaller but it's essentially the same system when you get down to it. The adapter just lets it access the larger Master System games. It's worth every penny! I'm glad that post was helpful.
