There's no region lock on Game Gear, but games actually detect console's region and switch languages if possible. There are some bizarre English localizations hidden in Japanese games.

Has Sega ever had an original idea?

Periscope (Namco) did the Electro Magnetic shooter before Sega. Sega even stole that idea and made their own clone of Periscope

Huge loss that Amy Rose's Roger Rabbit car never came back in later games.

Her car looks like it came right out of MotorToon GP. Though they are all derivative of the taxi cab from Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

Her cars' name is Breeze and it is sentient.

What a huge downgrade in Sonic R. I actually think Sonic Drift 2 is fun for an 8-bit 'into the screen' racer. They are not Super Mario Kart on the SNES tier. I haven't really played the first one. They look similar for the most part. Sonic Drift games look like they were GameGear games first then ported to the SMS. They look like they use the same engine as Super Monaco:

>>9452953
Oh, so it's once again, exactly just like a SMS?
Otherwise, I'm disappointed my copy of Puyo Puyo doesn't have this one, must be another version. It's completely unplayable. In the version I have they didn't compromise on the screen size and everything is SO GODDAMN TINY, christ

Played them in Sonic Adv. DX and they're simply, but fun enough. On Sega's defense, there was NO GB/GBC Mario Kart either

I swear, old sonic art is 100% pure unfiltered soul. They’ve got some soulful new artists too, but nothing quite comes close to that era.

They are. Are there Master System ports?
