Sort of. The levels are somewhat arranged differently.

I hear the SMS versions are weaker but I'll have to find out on my own one day.

They're all exactly the same, with the exception of a larger viewing area since the SMS has a larger resolution than the Game Gear.

Sonic Triple Trouble actually uses the extended Game Gear color pallet so it was never given an SMS port. If you check out screenshots you can see how much more vibrant it was, so in that sense the earlier Sonic games were 'crippled' (with color limitations) to work both on the console and handheld.

I'm a Sonic fan so the SMS Sonic games are obviously a must-have.

I'm hoping to find more wrestling games on the SMS besides Pro Wrestling..which I hear sucks.

Pretty much. The GG was more or less a portable SMS (with better colors was it?)

One of the things I really love about the system is that I can buy a game from Britain and not worry about PAL issues. I have Renegade on emulator, but I really want the actual cart. Mortal Kombat II is kind of odd, but okay once you get used to it, I suggest that one if you want some tournament fighting action.

Anyone play the 1997 Brazilian Street Fighter II? Kind of cool.
