January 15th, 2013 | Editorial, News, Portable, Saturn | By: Samuel Floyd

Along my thrift outings I’ve ran across a handful of old Sega Game Gear bags. I’ve only managed to find one with the insert to hold my Game Gear and it’s accessories, with being the only one I’ve found it took that job by default. But what do I do with the other bags without [...]
