Years ago I inherited my wife’s family’s Game Gear. After a recap, and replacing the backlight, I started tracking down games to play on it. It’s been great exploring a whole library of games that I skipped out on as a kid! (I was a Nintendo kid) Now I have a nice little library of carts to play on this beast of a 90’s handheld.

    I made it past the first level once or twice as a kid, but that game was un-fun hard.

      I was at a party a year or two ago and my friend booted it up on her Genesis. She smashed through every level with zero trouble (even the part with the monkeys tossing you, that always fucked me up!)

      She got to the final stage, began giving Scar and…

      The game froze. She’s like “motherfucker…” but it took but an hour for her to get there. She has like… memorized it. Restarted her Genesis and… nothing. Tried another game… nope.

      Her fucking Genesis died. AT SCAR.

      I blame Scar.

          LONG LIVE THE FINAL BOSS OF THIS GAME BECAUSE NOW YOU NEED A NEW CONSOLE

          Are you challenging me?

          Temper, temper… I wouldn’t dream of letting you finish this fight.

      Because it gets stupid hard real fast. Even if you somehow make out the monkey puzzle on the 2nd level, the pinpoint jump, double jump situation at the end crushes whatever excitement you have. That level is harder than the final boss.
