So I got my GG Xmas '91 I think, poss '92, and thanks to great parents they considerately bought my brother one at the same time to save arguments - which failed as we always wanted to play the other one's games and had only 1 power supply!

As you can see I collected quite a few bits and pieces over the years and have fond memories of it, taking it hiking was possibly a mistake due to the weight of it all lol but generally its quite a portable if not pocket size machine.

Its the only console I had as I was otherwise a computer bod but was always happy with and it wasnt for several years before I met someone else with one.

Favourite games?

Shinobi - a rather definitive version of the classic ninja game, think I got to the final boss several times but never managed to beat it

Defenders of Oasis - GG exclusive RPG, love this game, lots of fun if a little simplistic but has some more advanced RPG elements such as managing spell casting in battles

Halley Wars - Lovely little shooter if a little hard I feel, or maybe I'm just rubbish lol

Wanted

Lemmings! Cant believe i have lost this, hoping it will be revealed under a box I have yet to unpack but doesnt seem too rare if needed to buy again.

Very nice!  You should write reviews of these GG games!

Nice collection there! If I hadn't gone so hardcore for my LYNX collection, I probably would have invested some money in the Game Gear, because I always thought it had some really nice games on it.

Brilliant stuff fella..

Very impressive and nice to see some GameGear love around here..

[WiggyDiggyPoo]

Thanks! 

Dont mention reviews, some Zapiy chap will come moaning to me - something about reviews for some other site he has lol

TBH Yes I will write up on Defenders as I'm determined to finish that, the others we shall see.

Does anyone know anything about not using rechargeables in a GG, the chap I'm using to repair my third one is not recommending them?

Its funny as well as I dont think you can mention the GG without also looking at the Lynx - they are very similar IMO and certainly I think I'd like one as well.

Similar in that they are both colour handhelds, the Lynx is the far superior machine though in every way.

Thanks! 

Showed a couple of people at work the collection and they're impressed. One has a reasonable collection of GG stuff himself although he said he's thinking of selling, I've asked for first dibs lol:))

[onthinice]

Great Collection!

[zapiy]

Wiggy take a look at my collection mate I have some decent GG stuff.

I see you have Lemmnings

Thats on my list to get back, love that game and you'd think on the GG's tiny screen it'd be impossible but its actually very playable I think?

I have a spare Lemmings here if you want it, in fact I have 2 for some reason - one boxed and one unboxed.

Really? That'd be amazing if you could, I'd be happy to pay postage of course.

In fairness let me search my other 'loft boxes' I've gotten recently to make sure its not hiding somewhere and I'll let you know

[TL]

I didn't mean you can have it for free 

If you want it then just let me know and we can work out a price, otherwise they are both going to eBay.

I'll let you know 

Cheers.
