Turbo Express, Game Gear, Cha Cha Cha?

gamegear.jpg When we were checking out U.S. portable gaming site Modojo for its recent 'best of E3' coverage, we also discovered a series of handheld console retrospective features.

So far, these number the NEC Turbo Express ("the proverbial king of kings, a high class machine capable of amazing visuals"), and the Sega Game Gear ("essentially a portable Master System with a "high resolution" backlit screen... a cool little unit that had plenty of potential.")

Not having had a Game Gear, we found the game recommendation round-up for it, complete with video of a couple of the titles, particularly helpful - even down to the 'no Star Wars games on the Genesis' tragedy revisited ("Ok, so the Genesis loses out on Star Wars games while the Game Gear gets a watered down port of SNES Super Return of the Jedi!?!")
