Jungle Strike, Game Gear
The second game in the “Strike Series“, Jungle Strike on the Game Gear is more of the same isometric scrolling action in a helicopter. This time there are five missions to undertake, in various different environments.
Desert Strike, Game Gear
The Game Gear version of EA‘s classic helicopter action game, Desert Strike: Return To The Gulf, is excellent. It reproduces the tense gameplay of the original very well, and manages to pack-in quite a lot to do, over the span of four missions.
The Addams Family, Game Gear
The Sega Game Gear got a version of the movie-licensed platform game, The Addams Family, in 1993. This one was programmed by Arc Developments, and not by Ocean Software (who had done most of the other versions). It was published in North America and Europe by Flying Edge, and by Acclaim in Japan.

Ms. Pac-Man, Game Gear
Developed by Namco Hometek, Inc. and published by Namco in 1993, the Game Gear version of Ms. Pac-Man is arguably the best handheld version of the classic arcade game. Maybe even the best home version entirely.

Also known as “The G.G. Shinobi“, this was the first Shinobi game released for a handheld console, initially coming out in 1991.
Out Run, Game Gear
The 1991 Game Gear port of Sega‘s classic arcade racer, Out Run, was converted by Sanritsu Denki Co., Ltd. and features “Versus Computer” and “Versus Human” gameplay modes.
