SEGA Game Gear Retrospective
By James Grahame
Modojo is taking a nostalgic look back at the SEGA Game Gear this week, following up on their recent piece about the quirky NEC Turbo Express.
"The most important purchase that I made as a child was a Sega Game Gear. I had scrounged for several months to buy what was at the time a very hot piece of hardware, a portable that had a palette of 4,000 plus colors and played Sega videogames. It was and still is a cherished system, one that I played obsessively, not because it was the greatest thing ever, but simply because it was all that I could have. My parents were strict when it came to games, and if they had had their way, I would have been playing an Atari 2600 all through high school."
