    Really nice! Since GG2TV mod I wanted to put one of my GG's into SMS2 case and make it dual cartridge slot but this is much better. ;)

    For all intents and perposes wasn't the game gear a portable Master System to begin with?

    Yep, had a more robust VDP but that was about it. An adapter made quick work of using SMS games on it too.

    I was thinking about doing this exact thing for quite some time. Could probably improve upon things by adding in FM hardware (if possible) and a SMS card slot.

    Going though the 10 pages the guy that made this nice little mod did make an SMS converter.

    I do enjoy mods like this though. Someday I might shoehorn 6 systems into 1 case.

    At first I thought it was official, because I didn't feel like reading 10 pages of text that I didn't understand. Then I went back and....wow. Normally I don't like these stupid mods of systems to other cases, but this guy's is the most "real" looking I've ever seen.

    That is amazing!! That bad boy even has full RGB out and Master System converter. I so want one of those but he's not selling them by the looks of it. He says that he only made two. One is the prototype and one for his friend.

    That's really nice, and it looks legit I must say. I thought it was a fake clone just by looking at the image :p

    Wow it cost 20,000 Yen! It has production quality though!

    It really does have quality. That Game Gear System puts every clone made these days to shame. It really is a quality bit of kit. I really would pay up to 30'000 yen for one of those sytems.

    That's pretty damn cool looking. I wish I had a Game Gear. I've been thinking about trying to rebuild my handheld collection, as I've sold a lot of my handhelds over the years. I do still have my Nomad, though.

    To clarify: I meant I thought the Mark III converter was official, not the entire thing. Sega probably wouldn't make a non-portable Game Gear.

    Hehe seriously WOW, not only is that persons work so professional looking i love how they took very clear & detailed pics of all the construction process.

    If only more people did cool stuff like that, just think of what other handhelds could be turned into mini consoles hehe.

    Wait is this guy making these on commission? It seems that someone would be going to alot of trouble making a box an manual.
