I purchased this item when it was first released. Since it's old, there is age-related soiling and staining, mainly on the box and instruction manual. I haven't tested the functionality as I don't have a working Game Gear console. Please understand this before purchasing. (In 2024 and later, a total of 11 Game Gear software titles purchased around the same time were purchased by customers, but there were no complaints.) If you have any questions about the condition of the item, please feel free to ask. #SEGA #GameGear
