**Original** – The Sega Nomad is a portable version of the Sega Genesis, released in 1995, which was the last handheld released by Sega. It was undersupported and sold only a million units; as such, it has been considered a commercial failure.

Reason: High quality image of this old handheld

Support as nominator – — Chris Woodrich (talk) 23:56, 1 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - it looks a bit twisted at one end, to me. Is that the way it's supposed to be? I'd expect something more like a GameBoy, regular in shape. (Never seen one of these puppies before - I was a Nintendo kid, insofar as I played video games.) --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 14:41, 2 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Yep, it had a bit of a bulge, like this, and the bottom curved away like so. Guess Sega cared a bit more about ergonomics. (And yeah, I never had something like this. I had a Genesis, but it went belly up in 1997 or so) — Chris Woodrich (talk) 14:43, 2 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support, although I'd prefer a straightened handheld position in which it was played. I didn't had it either, but still, those were the beloved 90s... Brandmeister^talk 14:28, 3 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I should note that "sexy" was my comment on the nomination, not a new variation on my signature (though, obviously, that's true too). Love, Sexy Belle (talk) 00:40, 9 July 2015 (UTC) (that's how I'd do it if I was doing a new signature. Belle (talk) 00:40, 9 July 2015 (UTC))[reply]
