Game Genie (Game Gear)

The last version released of the Galoob cheat device, and sporting an impressive compatibility range (try it with a Master Gear - just do something about the clear plastic part so the thing can go all the way in - or an Everdrive, to make up for its lack of a patch code feature).

This page or section needs more images. There's a whole lotta words here, but not enough pictures. Please fix this. Specifically: There does not seem to be a dump (yet), however, so proper screenshots are not available at this time. Once found, add proper screenshots to this page.
