The console launched in Japan on October 6th, 1990 followed by North America and Europe (April 1991). The Game Gear featured similar hardware to [[Master_System:Master System Mods Wiki|Master System]] bit sported 4096 colors in its palette versus the contemporary [[Genesis:Genesis Mods Wiki|Genesis]]'s 512 colors. The system could be powered by a power adapter run for three to five hours on 6 AA batteries — a much shorter amount of time than the [[Game_Boy:Game Boy Mods Wiki|Game Boy]]'s 30 hours on 4 AA batteries. An analog TV Tuner was released for the system to be able to watch television on the Game Gear, as well as a Gear to Gear Cable (VS Cable) which allowed for multiplayer gameplay using two Game Gears.
