[@Sarge92]

im not the biggest fan of the consolized handhelds there hasn't been much if any development into fpga or hardware clones of handhelds in general so seeing the limited supply of these consoles we do have get turned into consoles irks me the other mods people do I'm fine with because when all is said and done you still have a console left over its just improved either backlights or better video output of the dying disk drive replaced but the consolized versions cease to be handhelds and are effectively destroyed unless you want to go to great lengths to restore them

[@briangilmartin662]

It's nice to see the Game Gear getting some love, considering how many mods exist for the Gameboy line of handheld systems. It's too bad they couldn't get 1080p on these but even then, 720p is still nothing to sneeze at.

[@ratykat]

One thing I dont think you get enough credit for is not only the brilliant videos and how to's, but you also show us when things go wrong - it'd be easier to just cut out the bad and just show the finished product but you take that extra time to show us bodge wires etc too. Thanks for keeping it real Tito!

Great video , just found a bit odd that u cut the legs on the capacitors if u then use soldering iron to remove the left over legs. Might as well of just unsoldered them in the first place. But I'm sure there's a reason lol Some fantastic soldering skills on display in this video

[@MachoNachoProductions]

Thanks Will! The full recap is done just to ensure the console is fully functional before we do the mod. It is definitely strange but necessary for game gears which have very weak caps

[@skins4thewin]

Or maybe just not replace those caps in the first place if you know you're gonna hafta remove em anyway.

Usb controller support would be a really cool option!

[@GatorRay]

To be fair they DID make Bluetooth versions of those Genesis Mini Controllers which should work (I THINK)

[@nicholsliwilson]

@@GatorRay I don’t think the GGHD supports Bluetooth does it? The Game Gear certainly doesn’t, it significantly predates the existence Bluetooth. The Genesis Minis 1 & 2 don’t support Bluetooth either & wireless pads for them connect via a USB adapter.

This broke my brain because that's literally just a Master System. They have the same hardware. But I know this is a "just because we can" sort of thing

[@aaronsilberman9071]

That's incorrect, different game library and the color depth is 9bit versus the master system's 3/4 bit color depth. Are they similar? Yes. The same? Absolutely not.

[@illkid86]

@@aaronsilberman9071 still similar just like comparing a ps2 to a psp

[@skins4thewin]

This is pretty dang cool & definitely something I've been waiting for but I dunno... It seems not quite as refined as it could be. I feel like it could use another revision or two & a little more time in the oven. I am sure there is a better way to design the kit for easier installation and the case as well so you don't have to remove the controller port shroud. Having no shroud for your controller port is just not a very good idea.

[@ITGuyinaction]

😜😜😜 Not bad console... 😜 P.S. I really like lighting and music in your videos. I have to learn sth from you!

[@MachoNachoProductions]

Thank you!

[@TheDolanar]

It seems there’s not much of a recess for the game controller and the pins are just exposed. I know they’re pretty strong but without the metal shield it would seem that with a controller or dongle attached there’s a chance that there would be more leverage to bend them i.e. someone pulls to hard on the controller cable at an angle or something hits the dongle from any side and bends the pin.

[@me.ko.i1279]

Cool

[@chuuwieee]

I wonder when are they going to start making fpga boards for HDMI output for the PS2 and for the japan exclusive PS2/DVR (PSX) console

[@MachoNachoProductions]

That would be pretty sweet when we get to that point

[@GatorRay]

How about just modchips for the Japanese only PSX? I remember when Meltingman234 did a Forgotten Media episode on it a LONG TIME AGO and it reminded him of the Jaguar CD. Speaking of which that's something I'd like to see. A possible mod for the Jaguar that allows for the playing of Jaguar CD titles off a MicroSD card. I know it'd be niche like the Neogeo CD but I still think it would be interesting.

[@XDM_Studios]

who needs drugs or alcohol when you can just watch Tito's therapeutic soldering skills!

[@retroprogamer7009]

Still kinda strange how Sega released the Game Gear as a sorta Portable Master System and the Nomad as a Portable Genesis. But never released something like the Super Game Boy.

[@illkid86]

The GG is a mini master system no wonder the sonic games on it play nothing like the genesis versions

[@illkid86]

I have both I hooked the game gear tv tuner up to my nomad the nomad looked better but it was still cool

[@That-Ninja]

Dewg. Don't be bulbous.

[@apollolux]

I’d like some elaboration on the Master System functionality. Do you mean it can physically play Master System games without the Master Gear Converter or do you mean the GGHD has some extra sauce for whenever a Master System game happens to be running instead of a Game Gear one? Also, form factor wise does the consolizer accept the Master Gear Converter or no?

[@skins4thewin]

A Game Gear can play Master System roms stock. You just need the cart adapter. There is no "extra sauce", the game gear can already do that :) He's just saying that the kit can properly display Master System games. Of course you'd need a cart adapter if you want to play actual SMS games. That is a good question about whether the case can fit a converter or not tho. Would like to know that myself.

[@toxofoz6233]

Bump on this as if I buy this kit i would like to not have to mod the case to fit my Master System cart player.

[@gumbyx84]

I might have missed it but does the kit come with the wires? I have an old Game Gear that a coworker and I tried to LED backlight back in 2007/2008/2009 (can't remember exactly). After the first attempt failed (LEDs weren't bright enough), I chickened out and put it in storage. Besides needing a recapping, it would be ideal for this mod, thought I don't trust my soldering skill are up to snuff for some of those more delicate soldering points like the resistors and soldering the GGHD board to specific pins on the LCD connector pins. With the cheapest kit being $160 and my Analogue Pocket shipping soon and arriving before the end of the year, I thinking eventually getting a Pocket Dock may be cheaper in the end.

[@MachoNachoProductions]

Hey Gumby, nope the kit does not come with the wires. Analogue pocket is pretty amazing plus it now has the ability to load cores with is awesome!

[@GatorRay]

Interesting to see. Now it's possible to play say. The Game Gear Sonic games on this with say a GG Everdrive X7 as an alternative to something like Sonic Adventure DX on the GameCube (Granted. The one new copy I saw on Ebay while typing this on November 26th 2022. Was going for only 60 bucks which IS a steal compared to 1st party titles. But on the other hand. The stock GameCube controller's D-Pad is pretty bad. But I digress)

[@skins4thewin]

Did you happen to lag test this kit by chance? I would definitely recommend getting a Time Sleuth. It's inexpensive & very easy to use & will allow you to feature those tests in your videos here! Lag testing should be an absolute must when dealing with any sort of video game mod. I definitely won't be buying the kit til I see some lag numbers.

[@bluedusk6434]

Now to make the Sega nomad in to a Console.... Wait....

[@toxofoz6233]

does this case take the Master System cart adapter?

[@Punmaster9001]

[@jamesalexhowlett]

I always wanted to play a game gear. My family was always too poor to afford one. Fortunately, my parents were able to get us a game boy color on the Nintendo DS came out, and we got a decent a lot of games for A.CHAL price because nobody wanted the games, and Kim typing wasn’t as big as it is now

[@NerdlyPleasures]

One negative I might observe which has not been previously mentioned. I did not see that any 15KHz analog video capability offered. This can be done over HDMI as seen with MiSTer. 31KHz analog video, which should be achievable via an HDMI to VGA converter, just is not good enough :) A positive to this mod is that your recapping became a whole lot easier (if even necessary), as it does not use the power or audio amplifier boards and there are six fewer capacitors on the main board that need to be replaced.

[@skins4thewin]

Why is it not good enough? 15Khz is a computer monitor standard is it not? Most kits aren't going to have that.

[@NerdlyPleasures]

@@skins4thewin It is the standard for SD CRTs, whether monitors or TVs. If you want to use this device as if Sega made a "Super Game Gear" back in the day that functions like a Super Game Boy, you cannot.

[@skins4thewin]

@@NerdlyPleasures Oh I gotcha, so it's the other way around then aka 31Khz is the standard for computer monitors am I right?

@@skins4thewin Yes, it is the standard for monitors that can handle 480p, which includes certain "HD" CRT TV.

Irony is that the Game Gear is basically a enhanced portable Master System. It probably would be more appropriate to use a SMS control pad with the console.

[@itsyeeoledskoolfurry3208]

Is this one SUPPOSED to be designed as grilled cheese on white bread??

[@jackofallgamesTV]

I would so buy it if it were for being required to be used on high-ping technology like most HDTVs. If someone can make it work with RF, Conposite, S-Video. Component, or SCART. i can guarantee close to zero ping. Any analog consolized Game Gears? Also any consolized Atari Lynxes?

[@stephensocialmedia7909]

if only it was like a switch where it could still be portable... ONE DAY!

[@axelblitz5284]

Wait. I don't get it. Are you using a signal converter to read games from a GameGear and play it on your TV with a Genesys controller ? I mean, it surely is fun to build but whats the point versus emulation on PC in this particular case ? I totally validate other mods on your channel, for having build some myself but this thing makes no sense 🤔 Anyway thumb up for the video 👍

[@ShinryuZensen]

For that price, I'd get a cheap laptop and a USB adapter for a master system pad.

[@christopherdecorte1599]

For the price it should have second controller support for the master system games.

[@skins4thewin]

Doesn't really work that way. The Game Gear does not support 2 player functionality in that way, so it's not possible unless you just did away with the Game Gear & had an actual SMS FPGA core running off the consolizer's FPGA itself.

[@Riz2336]

That's pretty cool, but dang that looks like a lot of soldering to do

[@MachoNachoProductions]
