Essentially a handheld version of the Master System, Sega's Game Gear was a powerful handheld with a colour screen that never really came close to competing with the Game Boy, wasn't as innovative as the Lynx, but still managed to get itself some fantastic games and has gracefully aged.

The console on offer is new in its box, as are the battery pack, the Game Genie, and the Gear-to-Gear cable. The Master Gear Converter that's part of the bundle is unboxed, but I suppose that's okay, as playing Master System cartridges on the go is still highly enjoyable.

A Vectrex to get you started

Sometimes, it is indeed better to start with the bare basics, avoid spending everything on a single purchase, and slowly working ones way to either an impressive collection or a fine gaming setup. So, this fully working, nicely preserved Vectrex eBay auction might just be for you, if you are interested in sensibly starting by only getting the console with its built-in game and a controller.

Intelligent Systems' Enterprise

I love discovering obscure micros on eBay, and, well, the Enterprise 128 is definitely one of my absolute favourite forgotten 8-bits. The playful colors, the built-in joystick, the 128k of RAM, and the impressive audiovisual capabilities made this a very exciting computer, though not as exciting as the Atari STs and Amigas of the time and it sadly flopped. Not being cheaper than the ZX Spectrum didn't help much either...

Anyway. The Enterprise 128 on offer comes in its box with a Hungarian manual, the original power supply, all required cables, one game tape, the Basic cartridge, and the system bus cover. The micro seems to be in good working order.
