Excited to get into Ax Battler - seems like it'll be a good time! Need to look up the manual to Crash Dummies, I have no clue what I'm supposed to be doing to clear a stage...

I had a Gamegear. Fucker absolutely destroyed AA batteries. I liked the 7up game.

I have good memories of Ax Battler, have fun!

Game Gear was just the perfect level of chunky for games to have that nice pixelated quality forcing creative art styles while also not feeling constrained. I got an Analogue Pocket a while back and my Game Gear library has been growing steadily.

But you have to keep it plugged to the USB cable or the battery won't last for more than a few minutes.

Man the Game Gear was so ahead of its time. I remember that crash test dummies game being advertised in comic books but never got to play it myself!

Might have to do that soon

I had that Crash Test Dummies game on the Game Boy. I don't think I knew there was a Game Gear version. I need to check that out.
