Thumbs up

Having moved out of my house the other week I had to wait for an NTL engineer one arvo in an empty house (and the ****** never showed up [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] - no surprise there then).
So I dug out my old Game Gear and took it along with me. Thank god for Sonic the Hedgehog, Shinobi and Mickey Mouse!, the time flew past at a silly speed! I'd forgotten how much fun it was

Might have to get a few more titles now!

I still occasionally play on my old (t)rusty Atari Lynx.
Did you ever get the TV tuner for the Game Gear?

The game gear has still not been bettered, I have 4 at the moment!

1)My first one, still the one I use.
2)An old tatty one I bought, but used the screen to fix mine (1)
3)One faulty in bits, just spares..
4)One brand new, still in box, still wearing it's screen protector

I have two TV tuners, probably a bit excessive.. I'll let one go for £30?

I'm thinking of getting a TVTuner for the Gameboy Advance, has anyone bought these or tried one of these?

Atari Lynx - 1st handdeld to do proper doom-style 3D graphics (BattleWheels - out 6 months after Doom on the PC)

Reading that too, mines an imported Game Gear, so I guess the pal TV Tuner won't work..............

It will end up about £30 when the bids close, trust me.

If they are really going for that little, get one!

You should be ok as long as your GG has the lugs for it, the later GG's did not as Sega had a falling out with the manufacturers of the TV tuner (not sega)

Oh right - so the country of origin shouldn't matter then - after all it did play the games bought in this country.......

I'll keep my eye on that auction, failing that will give you a shout!
