  • Game gear for me as well. When your a kid, your favorite console is whichever one you were lucky enough to own, be it a gift from a parent, or one you bought with chore money from a friend.

    I loved my Game Gear. I always had the AC adapter, so I didn’t actually burn through many batteries (never played in the car because the motion gave me a headache). Although I eventually had quite a few games, the ones that I played the most were Sonic 2, Mortal Kombat, and Spider-man/X-Men Arcades Revenge.

    Nostalgia alone will probably always keep the Game Gear my favorite handheld, despite how awesome all the Gameboys, DSs, and PSP things that get made. That said, the Neo Geo Pocket holds a high place in my heart as well.



  • I assume we are only talking about games that looked ugly pretty much upon release, and not games that look really bad now but are still really fun.

    In that case starting with the most recent:

    Save Room - Puzzle game that is just the inventory management from survival horrors like Resident Evil. Might be just a simple joke game, but I had a lot of fun with it.

    Outcast - The voxel tech just wasn’t ready. Amazing game, one of the best of the era, but it its visuals left a lot to be desired. Modern updates have greatly improved its look.

    Eradicator - This one was looking out of date when it came out, but its a surprisingly awesome and deep 90’s era shooter.
