The pictures explain most of it. You can run it through google translate if you want more details. A later post also links to a howto.

Wow, that's awesome. The controller is a great touch.

Wondering why that thread is all in Japanese when those forums are full of British folk.

PunkCryborg

Wow! I wonder if this will be available or if it's justa project someone did?
I would pick this up if it comes for sale. I love how they found a nice style somewhere inbetween a SMS and a Game Gear

roflmao

Yeah, that thing looks awesome.

Because the Guy who made that is probably Japanese and probably doesn't speak more than three words of your Language.
It seems that smspower.org is also widely used in Japan fields.

OK I found the link to the DIY section. That is incredibly impressive. That dude has MAD skills and a lot of free time lol. This would be a lot of fun to try out but if I did it wouldn't look nearly that professional.
Here's the link for the DIY guide http://www.lcv.ne.jp/~mgs1987/sega/gg2.html

I hope he mass produces these, as I would buy one...not to mention I'd start buying Game Gear games!  The Game Gear never did interest me too much.  I have it, with a few games, but for some reason, the Lynx has always seemed better to me :-k  Ofcoarse, I'd love to have a console Lynx or an adapter to play them on the Jag.

Check out his other mods and repairs, this dude is super crafty

These DIY crafters never cease to amaze. That is one sweet consolized portable. And the Sony DSC-1024HD scaler isn't too shabby either.

Well they should.  English is the best language.  If there were a better language, I'd speak it.

Damn, the amount of manufacturing that went into this is phenomenal.  I'd see the pictures of it last year, but I didn't realize the scale of it was so small as well.  It looks super professional too, those are some really nice clean boards and assembly.

Man, that dude put a lot of time into that.  Nice payoff, though.

It's custom built not fully manufactured, and I believe on the last page he even says that they're not for sale.  I don't blame him though, if I spent that much time custom building something that slick I'd not want to sell it either.

He could sell it easily as a kit. He made all the PCBs and stuff, it would be a shame if that's only for like one or two devices on planet.

He even made it as far to a complete in box with manual system. This guy is crazy.

Let's hope he will produce some in future. But they won't be cheap. The parts alone costed him like 250 bucks.

Being a SMS/Game Gear nerd this might be the greatest thing ever made!

Samurai Ghost

Ah, that's too bad. It's one amazing custom!
Considering how professional it looks and the box and everything I assumed they were manufactured somewhere.
I wish there was a cart so I could play my SMS games through my Master System or Genesis at least.
I love me some Game Gear games and I'd love to be able to play them on a TV. (And yes, I know about emulation!)

Tatsujin

Read/watch the whole thing and you will see that he produced everything by himself and in his very own four little walls.
