Game Gear was just the perfect level of chunky for games to have that nice pixelated quality forcing creative art styles while also not feeling constrained. I got an Analogue Pocket a while back and my Game Gear library has been growing steadily.

But you have to keep it plugged to the USB cable or the battery won't last for more than a few minutes.
