Breathe new life into your classic Sega Game Gear hand held with this excellent IPS LCD replacement. Replacing the dated original LCD with this new, vibrant model will make playing Game Gear games a lot more fun, thanks to increased brightness, contrast, picture sharpness and improved battery life.

These replacement LCDs are the best value on the market and have been specifically engineered for the Game Gear. While not retaining the native resolution of the original Game Gear screen, they offer several versatile scaling modes and a number of exciting features:-

• High brightness IPS LCD. Superior viewing angle, contrast, clarity. Not TFT like other kits out there.
• ONLY BennVenn kits have no screen tearing on moving images
• Low power – approximately 1/3rd of other competing kits. Longer battery life, less stress on electronic components
• 11hrs35min runtime measured on 2200mah NiMh cells.
• Variable brightness control via the brightness wheel
• Scanlines and scaling modes (Full screen, cropped & 1:1 modes)
• Ability to move the image up and down in cropped mode
• No buzz/hum/whine injected into the console like other competing kits
• Cheaper than competing kits yet better quality
• Frame locked to the original frame rate. No image tearing or lag
• Both Game Gear mode and Master System mode is supported
• Built in protection prevents damage to our kit if your system is running at a higher than standard voltage.
• Currently a 10 wire install, though this may increase as more functionality is added to the design.
• V1.1 Firmware – Delay added to scanline enable/disable to prevent accidental scanline mode in certain games

Note that this kit does NOT offer a VGA/RGB/external display option.
