The Game Gear was a magic trick; backlit color Sega fire in the palms of your sweaty kid mitts. No one I knew was cool even to have freakin’ Bare Knuckle II on the gosh darn Game Gear.

The color in this game makes it a killer all on their own, but all the amazing action brilliance of THE GREATEST BEAT EM UP OF ALL TIME (second only to streets of rage 3 of course…) is boiled down into the adorable pixel perfection of the Game Gear. Rising Upper forever.
