Game Genie (Game Gear)

The Game Genie.

The Game Genie is a runtime ROM modification Game Enhancer device. This is one of the many Game Genie products available. This game genie had a interesting design as when the Game Genie was inserted into the Game Gear another port pop-up which the game would need to be inserted to. The code book could be stored in a small compartment, or the pages could actually be peeled off and stuck onto the back of the game, as they were stickers.

Like the Genesis Game Genie it was given Sega's seal of approval.
