Handheld Wars Week 12 - Skweek

I like how that history video had the original developer interview in there giving some background to the game, that level of professionalism is rare on youtube.
However, I don't agree with them that the Game Gear version is bad, I'd say it's one of the best and arguably better than most other versions, the simplicity of the game and the style it has I feel is more at home on a low res 8-bit system like the Game Gear with nice little sprite based graphics, unlike on mobiles with newgrounds flash animation looking visuals, on smart devices it looks exactly like what it is, a cheap mobile game, and that's definitely NOT meant as a compliment.
In my opinion this game absolutely benefits visually from pixelated old school graphics like that seen on Game Gear and Lynx, and the portability I think also adds to this type of game, puzzle games just fit so well on portables as you can solve a puzzle or two while waiting for something else without being tied to a stationary screen to play it on.
Simply put, in my opinion the Game Gear and Lynx versions are the best of them all.

With that being said, I have a hard time picking favorites between these two, but I guess ultimately I give it to the Lynx because I like the colors a bit more, the Game Gear version has very strong colors and I feel it has a slightly oversaturated look as a result, like pink for example almost looks red on Game Gear, I prefer the cleaner colors on Lynx.
