Support NeoGAF

[anthraticus]

Massive hands =

I think you mean anything close to normal human adult hands.

 

[Starlight Lotice]

... you mean, what they say about NeoGAF isn't true??

Which part? The Micro Penis, being Nazis or we are all SEGA loving freaks?

 

[Tarin02543]

I don't think so. M2 is working on it

 

[plushyp]

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

I thought everyone here wants big TVs because they can't sit too close to a smaller set due to their massive dongs?

This is the original specs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_Gear#Technical_specifications

 

[Sub_Level]

Four games? FUCKING FOUR?!

 

[Come On Tars]

I dig it. But yall right that screen just might be too much. Well see.

EDIT. FOUR GAMES LMAO.


EDIT EDIT. I just realized I prolly only played 4 games on that thing

 

[Alphagear]

So from what I have read there are 4 different units with each one having 4 different games.

Costing 50 dollars per unit.

So basically around 200 dollars/pounds to get the whole set.

What planet are Sega living on?

 

[Sakura]

I don't believe the Game Gear ever exactly sold gangbusters, so I'm not really sure what kind of nostalgia factor or sales they are expecting here. On the other hand, these things probably don't cost much to make, so they will probably pull in some money either way.

The magnifying glass thing is hilarious though.

 

[scalman]

so every year our phone screens get bigger and bigger and now they want to release this ? do i need some magic to able to see that screen there or its just a joke ?

They provide a Big Wondow Accessory but you need to pay money for it.

 

[Thurible]

Interesting, I assume the size is exaggerated though, right?

Gaming on this is going to be a joy... not.

I could get behind this if it were as big as a GBA... but lol? How are you supposed to hold this?

Guess I'll keep on waiting for that Analogue Pocket.

My friend recommended that to me recently! It seems the pocket also plays game gear as well, no?

 

[Fox Mulder]

This just seems ridiculously small and unplayable.

Since it can run on AAA batteries, they should recreate the god awful battery life for the lolz.

 

[Starlight Lotice]

Will Smith got one early it seems

 

[itsjustJEFF]

Damn it. I really was hoping for the Sega Series X!

OT: that thing is way to damn small! My hands are larger than the average Japanese man's hands and my eye sight is shit, so I'm gonna have to pass.

 

[xpresstuning]

The only good use of this would be as an accessory for your key ring, but not at 50 bucks. I'd give a lot of things for a SEGA Saturn Mini, and i don't even bother with these machines. But this mind boggling product? Why?

 

[Sacred]

What is this a video game system for ants??

 

[Hydroxy]

I think i would buy if it was $5. I wouldn't play any games on it though. Just a momento.

 

[DESTROYA]

The baby hands planet.
This will be unusable for every adult on the planet.

 

[Sorcerer]

Apparently all pre-orders are fulfilled, sold out within minutes. I guess Sega is having the last laugh. I wonder if its genuine interest or people hoping to re-sell them for a fortune?

 

[jshackles]

It's like the more info SEGA releases about these things, the more bizarre it gets.

 

[Bankai]

nah, they made like 23 of em

 

[Sorcerer]

nah, they made like 23 of em

If that turns out to be true, that would be hilarious.

 

[FranXico]

that screen just might be too much

Surely you mean too little.

 

[MP!]

Wait... where did they get a Z80 from in this day and age?
I mean ... wouldnt the whole Z80 chip be 2" already?

 

[Endless Fluff]

I can actually see Nintendo doing this as well if the Game Gear Micro sells well enough.

My friend recommended that to me recently! It seems the pocket also plays game gear as well, no?

Yes, however it works like the recently released Evercade, but instead of buying modules with emulator and games pre-installed, you have to buy adapters for Lynx, Game Gear and Neo Geo Pocket (you also need to own the games). I believe it only supports Nintendo (GB, GBC, GBA) out of the box.

 

[angelic]

Cant wait to play fortnite on it.

 

[celsowmbr]

Personaly, I will wait for a chinese ripoff like Mega Drive FeiHao

 

[kingbean]

Thats the original specs.

 

[SuperGooey]

Who is responsible for hyping up this announcement as something big?

Because it's literally small. And shitty.

Your regular reminder that GAF isn't Japan:




They obviously know their market.

 

[Kittehkraken]

Another missed opportunity for something great.

 

[Xplainin]

I will be disappointed in GAF if anyone makes a joke about Japanese things looking small in a hand.

 

[MP!]

Thats the original specs.

facepalm
I was gonna say !

do we have any indication of what WILL be powering this little thing?

 

[YCoCg]

Sony were fast to respond this time, to celebrate the 15th Anniversary of the PSP, BEHOLD! The PSP Miniscule....

 

[Torrent of Pork]

Finally?

 

[Vawn]

Sony were fast to respond this time, to celebrate the 15th Anniversary of the PSP, BEHOLD! The PSP Miniscule....

That screen is still easier to see than the real GameGear Micro one.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

If you play baseball, is the ball 1 pixel?

 

[JareBear: Remastered]

Finally?

You know it

 

[MrA]

Might have to import the yellow one it has not one not two but all three shining forces

 

[Sakura]

Your regular reminder that GAF isn't Japan:

Sold out doesn't mean a whole lot if we don't know how many units that is.

Imagining a bunch of midgets having a blast with preordering this right now.

 

[darth.shrimp]

Man, I loved my Game Gear when I was young (only played it plugged to an electrical outlet though so I wasn't bothered by the battery life), but this? 4 different colours, each with only 4 different games pre-installed? And not even the most popular ones of the system, from what I can see... yep, not for me.

 

[RAIDEN1]

This has to rank up there as one of the most dumbest products to come out of Sega since the 32x....I mean they could have gone for a Dreamcast Mini, but oh no...instead lets go back to 1990 instead and give people what is not even any better than the original 1990 release...imagine if this had a TV tuner!!

 

[Kazza]

Imagining a bunch of midgets having a blast with preordering this right now.

Haha, to be fair I think they will be suitable gifts for very young Japanese kids.

 

[Kazza]

Sold out doesn't mean a whole lot if we don't know how many units that is.

For sure, I doubt that they made huge number of these. From what I can tell, this product was just a fun little idea from Sega's toy department, it was never meant to be some big deal. It was people reading too much into that Famitsu journalist's words which got people hyped, Sega never implied that they were planning anything big.

 

[phil_t98]

sorry Sega not a chance I will be buying this. to small, these games should be played on screens the size of phones now

 

[Impotaku]

All these statements about people not buying them, well considering sega has said nothing about it getting released outside Japan it's not gonna be buyable anyway unless you import. So much salt over whats a fun little collectible, man supposed sega fans are a fickle bunch lol.
