portable master system possible?

[atk]

hi all

is it possible on a game gear to use the hardware on a master system adaptor and put it inside a game gear (like the neptune mod) basicly turning the game gear into a portable master system and would it have the ability to use the rechargeable battery pack or would it overheat?

The Game Gear IS a portable Master System, no? I have an SMS adapter from back in the day. That's all that was needed, much like SMS games on the MD. The Power Base Convertor was a VERY overpriced cartidge adaptor. I don't know about other countries but mine was $79.95 back in 1991. The box still has the price tag on it. There was no hardware in the SMS adaptor from what I remember, it was just a cart adaptor.

He probably just wants a portable with a dedicated SMS slot and a better screen. If you use a Game Gear as a base, you need a GGTV board and a new screen, on top of a Master Gear converter.

That would be the way to do it. At least sms games would be full screen size too.
