The Game Gear featured a full-color backlit screen and was capable of displaying more detailed graphics than the Game Boy. It also had a built-in speaker and headphone jack, and could be connected to a TV with an adapter.
The Game Gear was home to many popular games, including Sonic the Hedgehog, Mortal Kombat, and Shinobi. It also had a number of accessories, including a TV tuner and a battery pack that extended its battery life.
Despite its technical superiority, the Game Gear struggled to compete with the Game Boy, which had a larger library of games and better battery life. Sega released several variations of the console over its lifespan, including the Game Gear Micro in 2020, a miniature version of the console with a screen that is only 1.15 inches in size.
Despite its commercial failure, the Game Gear remains a popular console among retro gaming enthusiasts, with its colorful graphics and impressive library of games ensuring its place in gaming history.
