Manufacturer description
Black SEGA Game Gear with Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Working, powers on and runs game fine. DOES NOT COME WITH BATTERIES OR CORD. This is an old console, and as such shows signs of wear such as scuffs and sticker residue on the back from original purchase. IMPORTANT NOTE - Sound does not appear to be working. May be fixable, though I’m unsure how to do so myself.
