Master System



This page is about Sega's 8 bit heroes: the radical Master System and its 6 AA battery-munching kid sibling, the Game Gear. While the MS was not too popular in America and Japan, it was a smash hit in Europe for some reason. The Game Gear was well-loved among niche audiences worldwide, but mostly in Japan, where quite a few games available elsewhere for MS and/or GG were exclusive to GG in Japan, who had given up the MS in favor of the GG's portability. Eventually, its level of fame died down too, as the Game Boy took the reigns, even more so, the Game Boy Color. Recently, Game Gear has risen from the ashes and been announced for Nintendo's 3DS Virtual Console support.


 * Things to do:

1) Add a small game gear image to a Master System game when either version (MS or GG) is fine (I will specifically help with this. --Dejiko 05:39, March 7, 2011 (UTC)). If a game is specifically listed under Game Gear, then that version is likely superior and needs no alteration.

2) Make a note of 3DS availability of Game Gear games when the service is accessible. This will be done with a small 3DS logo image

3) Add in-game screenshots for both lists. The title screens can stay, but an in-game screen should be present too, of course.
