6. Streets of Rage 2 - I missed out on the Streets of Rage series as a kid as it was seen as too violent by my parents and grandparents to give to my 10-13 year old self back when these were really popular. Luckily, eBay became a thing and I bought both games for the system later in life. To my fantastic surprise, both games were really good on the handheld; but the second really shines. Kudos to those that ported this in such a fantastic way.

Oh man. Glad you got it back eventually. I would have told my parents and had a police report made out and taken them to each "friend's" home.

unfortunately I don't think the police would have done anything back then, because just a few years ago a random kid somewhere in my neighborhood left a stolen bike on my front lawn. I immediately contacted my police and made a report, they told me that they couldn't do anything but I just had high hopes. and kept the bike where it could be seen.

So I left the stolen bike towards the back of my front yard and the good news is the owner of the stolen bike came up to my home. about a week or two later with a cell phone. and told me that was his bike. and I gladly gave him his bike back. I think the police might have given him my address, long story short. This kid got he stolen bike returned to him. and (I think) If I didn't make a call to the local police. the kid may have never got his bike back.


(back on topic)
there is another game I remember playing on my Game Gear it's a the best fighter jet simulation game I ever played on the Game Gear, and I think it's worthy of getting into more peoples GG collections

I was into real military class fighter jets when I was maybe 5 or 6? even had a jet airplane book that talked about more fighter jets like this.

Gameplay is nothing like Top GUN on the NES, it does not have a landing sequence as hard as Top GUN on the NES. this game has missions where you lock on and shoot down other fighter planes and bomb tanks and other ground targets below your fighter jet, and it's not fast paced from what I remember either.

it's a nice and easy game to get into for casual gamers. but I have not played a lot of fighter jet games in my life so take note.

I also recommend buying that Game Gear Screen magnifier I had and also and a Game Gear AC Power Cord to plug it into a power outlet to get a more better Game Gear Experience.

8. Road Rash - I only picked this game up about a year ago but had I known this was on Game Gear back in the 90's... I would have picked it up then. For obvious reasons, the game is slower than its Genesis counterpart, but the gameplay is all there. Kicking and punching or using weapons on other racers is always fun. Glad to finally have it in my collection.

Let's get this list back on track...

01. Sonic Triple Trouble
02. Shining Force: The Sword of Hajya
03. Mortal Kombat II
04. Jurassic Park
05. Ristar
06. Streets of Rage 2
07. F-15 Strike Eagle
08. Road Rash
09. Defenders of Oasis
10. Ecco the Dolphin

I ended up getting Ecco as a birthday gift after my mother had already bought me the first Mortal Kombat but then overheard how violent it was. I was angry at the time, but when I got to playing Ecco, I actually really enjoyed it. Being able to explore under the water felt really cool on the handheld. Sure, it was tough as nails, but at the time, we were all kind of used to games being pretty hard. I actually remember beating it a couple times thanks to the use of level passcodes that I would get as I progressed.
