The GG had many accessories. One of them was a TV tuner, which no longer works as of February 2000. Rechargable battery packs to help make the GG portable and not make you keep buying AA batteries every 2 hours, master gear converter to play Master System cartridges on the GG, a car adapter for playing in the car without batteries, and much more.
Originally only available in black, the GG was available in other colors. A Japan only release of an ultra-limited white console in a special metal game case was available soon after launch. Later a special blue version was available in the US.
The Game Gear was built as a "landscape" hand-held. This meant that the D-pad and buttons were to the sides of the screen as opposed to being at the bottom like the Game Boy. This made the GG a lot more comfortable to hold because you hands were not so close and crammed together.
Sega's first hand held video game system. It was the portable version of the Master System.
Sega Game Gear came out in the U.S. in 1991. Like the Sega Master System, it was an 8-bit system. It could run on 6-AA batteries or an AC adapter could be used to plug the GG into the wall or outlet. It came packaged with Columns a "Tetris type" game, in which you have to match the colored blocks as opposed to making lines.The GG had many accessories.
