    …i’ve always considered that a game gear title first, even though both formats were released nearly simultaneously…

      I was going to tell you were wrong but decided to make sure before making a fool of myself. It was the right call, eheh.

      The game was developed specifically for the Game Gear and that was the first version to be developed though the Master System version was the first to be released.

        …i’m pretty sure the only difference between versions is the physical cartridge format; the software is identical and there are adaptors available for both platforms…

          The games are mostly similar but there are a few differences.

          The Game Gear has a lower resolution so most games had to have slight changes to account for it. There was a MS adapter for the Game Gear but games would look too small since they weren’t made for a tiny screen. The other way around was not possible without altering the games themselves because the GG had a different color palette with more colors.
