Game Gear
Because I was a
Sega fanboy, I was always jealous of the people that had this system.
My high school friend Joey had a Game Gear. I loved the way it felt
in my hands. And, I hated the original Gameboy. It had an ugly
green screen and piss poor sound. But the green/black screen
bothered me the most.
I never
understood why the Game Gear never caught on, but now it seems it was
because it loved to drain batteries fast...real fast. Handheld
systems need the battery-life due to the nature of handheld gaming.
With that shitty green screen, the GB could last longer.
Side note: My
friend Joey had all the systems. All the shitty systems too.
Here's Space
Church member Ethan Suplee hawking Game Gear. I remember this
commercial. I'm sure banging a dead squirrel against his head is a
Scientology thing. Remember, Sega ads always had an attitude vibe to
them. In another ad they have the GB scooping up shit.
