While I won't say it's as good as any castlevania game I think it's still decent enough. Certainly better than castlevania clones on Nintendo platforms like 8 eyes.

Shame on you guys with your mediocre suggestions.

The three best games on the system are:

GG Aleste 2

Shinobi 2 was suggested in the first reply. Now who's ashamed?

Megaman, gg aleste 1+2, panzer dragoon mini, captain America + avengers, arena maze of death, sonic chaos, prince of Persia, hook, ristar, home alone, ninja gaiden, ax battler, there are a lot of great games. And like everyone else said, u really gotta play shinobi 1+2.

A lot of its library is made up of inferior ports of Master System games that were only released in Europe.

>> No.3635950

>>3635907
False,
For starters any ports between the two are generally superior on the GG due to its increased color palette but even then if you look closely the builds for the SMS & GG versions of games like SoR 1 & 2 or Batman Returns or Wonderboy III are completely different.

Yes. Colour palletes make games better.

>> No.3635981

>>3635956
okay then champ, I would like for you to describe to me how the gameplay mechanics of said games are better on the SMS

>inb4 higher resolution
Yes, because resolution make games better.

>> No.3635995

>>3635981
Resolution, in this case, does make the games better. The games were all MS originally, so the line of sight is much lower in the GG ports.

>> No.3636003

>>3635995
Again you're wrong
the build for the GG SoR games Batman Returns and more aren't "originally" for SMS, they are both different ports developed separately and they may be zoomed in a little more on the GG but they look a lot better than they do on the SMS.

>> No.3636047

>>3636003
but do they support the SMS' fm sound?

>> No.3636056

>>3636047
no and neither do the SMS versions. Nothing SMS released after 1988 does.

>> No.3636063

>>3635981
Sonic on SMS is so much better than GG, purely because of resolution. Fast based games demand it. Stay mad, I guess.

Outrun 3D and Wonder Boy 3 support it and they were released in '89.

I built a consolized game gear myself. Obviously not as pretty and complete as that one. It feels great though.

The hardest part is making a case. That took over half of my time and it looks like a piece of shit, but it works.

Since 3D printing is a thing now I'm considering building another one with a proper shell. Are there businesses for 3D printing yet? Like, I make my own computer model and they help verify that it'll print correctly?

Google around for a hackerspace or makerspace near you; they usually have 3D printers available and people around to help configure them.

Alternately I think Barnes & Noble was experimenting with having rental 3D printers for some bizarre reason.

You can repurpose a broken Sega Master System. Hit the case hard with cleaning solutions and magic eraser and then go to work on custom labels and a custom cartridge door on top.

Install a Game Gear TV board
Connect a 9-pin controller port to the button pads
Shoved into a generic case mold

>>3636580
I thought about that. That's not a bad option.
However, I really do not want to rotate the cartridge port. That looks like a nightmare to keep straight.

I'd rather have some kind of custom fit, petite case that's made to cradle the game gear boards. Mine isn't very sturdy, and I think using another system's case would result in the same problem.
