Sega Game Gear problem
« on: December 31, 2015, 12:29:49 pm »
There is a problem with Sega Game Gear US console entries.

Sega Game Gear (NA) http://vgcollect.com/item/83230
At the time of posting it has this name and is just a picture of the standard Sega Game Gear. I had submitted and edit to turn this entry into the first boxed release. There are 23 in collections.

Majesco Sega Game Gear http://vgcollect.com/item/36310
has correct picture (although should be on Cart Image not Box Front)
There are 32 in collections.

Here's the problem.
Sega Game Gear [NA] http://vgcollect.com/item/14502
There are 309 in collections.
Box image is the Majesco release.
Cart image is the Sega release.

1. So the problem here is if the edit for 83230 goes through, it will be the first release Game Gear in 1991.
2. 36310 should be named Sega Game Gear - The Core System, and have the box front and back pics from 14502.
What to do about 14502? If 1 and 2 are done, then 14502 would become a listing error or dupe. But a dupe of what?

Only reason to bring this up is due to the large amount in collections. Since the regular Sega Game Gear came in one of 9 different retail releases, there is no way to know. I suspect most of these people have gotten the system loose and don't care about which release their system came in.

Perhaps people who own 14502 can be merged into one of this entry?

Note: all other US releases have been added to the database already.
