[RetroGamer10626]

hey great video i have been looking for a nomad but i just want to know one thing is the screen quality of the NOMAD better than the gamegear? cause i have the gamegear and the screen quality is terrible.

@RetroGamer10626 The Nomad's screen is vastly superior to the Game Gear in pretty much every way. It's still not perfect, but definitely good enough where I use a Nomad regularly.

Turboexpress looks larger than the original gameboy... which allready was a large enough system for a small family to live in.

Do you have to swear so much???

[ReverendDamaged]

Yes.

[dogeymon83]

Oh.

[bobopatchigglerrulez]

is the nomads screen better than the game gears? because the game gear screen is...

[ReverendDamaged]

The Game Gear's screen is what? O_o

[bobopatchigglerrulez]

its definitely not the best screen in the world

[ReverendDamaged]

For sure. I hate the screen on that thing. You'd think there'd be a third party system by now that will run Game Gear games on a better looking screen.

@ReverendDamaged How about the Majesco Game Gear (2001)? I read the refresh rate was better.

However I whish there was a new licenced, compatible, smaller system with a screen as large and perfect emulation... Would be a winner with fans.

@jbmaru Hmm. I haven't had one of those come in to my shop yet, though if I find one online I would definitely do a new review with all 4 of the units. I'd possibly throw in the Lynx too but that system has no games really worth even playing. I'm a scrolling-shooter guy myself. I definitely agree about there needing to be a fixed re-release of the unit though, or one that will play the games on a larger screen (like the Game Boy Player).

I wonder the size of turbo express' screen. Maybe 2,5 inch?

[ReverendDamaged]

I'll have to check. My express is in storage, but if anyone else wants to give it a measure before I dig mine out, feel free to let us know!
