Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

...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.
