Sega has announced the Game Gear Micro in Japan, which has a one-inch screen and has four different versions with four different games each. It's as weird as it sounds.

The Game Gear, on the other hand, never really reached the same audience. Meant to be a direct competitor to Nintendo’s Game Boy, the more expensive price and smaller selection of games led it to sell just over 10 million units in its lifetime, peanuts compared to the Game Boy’s nearly 70 million sales. As such, it’s unclear how large the market is for a nostalgic collection of Game Gear games, and that’s likely why the Game Gear Micro is only being sold in Japan for the time being.

To top it all off, having four different versions for nearly $50 each with only four games each is just… ludicrous. Either Sega knows Japan has insatiable appetite for Game Gear games, or they’re dangerously cocky after the success of the Genesis Mini. If you buy all four versions, for the equivalent of roughly $200 , Sega will throw in a “Big Window Micro,” essentially a magnifying glass set over the screen to enlarge the frame. It’s reminiscent of screen magnifiers sold for the original Game Boy, but if it’s necessary for Sega to make this,This entire presentation is baffling, but there are inevitably people who will buy it in Japan and likely import it from other countries.
