Wow, you think the practices of these companies can't get any lower but this is disgusting.
Biggest issue is making people buy 4 separate devices to play all the games, its not like there is enough waste being shat out by large companies just to make a quick buck.
And the "big window"?! if it needs a bigger screen, just include one. I guess one more piece of land fill waste wont matter at this point.
It's a great device in principle, must admit I was also more than a bit I insulted by them milking for as many additions.
Nothing wrong with the variety, but restricting the games to make you rebuy several is a joke.
Who would buy something with a less than 3cm screen? The graphics may be primitive but that's too small!
Anyone who bought one of them Tamagotchi things, I presume...
It's a cute little novelty. Nothing more.
It looks way too small to hold comfortably, perhaps even for a child. It would have been better served by just charging £150 for one model that has all the games, or perhaps even putting out some kind of proprietary micro-SD like the old game carts. I expect anyone seriously interested in the games will already have them, though, if not on an original Game Gear then on some kind of emulator.

These will be a bit of fun Shame they are only available pre-build, i'd love to build a kit for these!
Reminds me of the Pocket Sprite (https://pocketsprite.com/) which I really enjoyed putting together. Thats smaller than one of these, and its VERY playable - much more so than you would ever think...and I don't have small hands by any means.
I hope they make it out of japan for a reasonable price - i'd be keen to pick one up.
I don't mind the idea but honestly the price is a little too high imo (it would likely be £50 by the time it gets here imo)and it is insulting that it's restricted to just 4 games (wouldn't be shocked if it's the same board with a jumper like on the nes, I think, mini console)
My fingers are way to fat and my eyes are too knackerd to play this.
I loved my Game gear back in the day. Tempted to buy one of these, maybe its on Aliexpress?
