The Ultimate Visual Evolution: Game Gear CleanScreen (Version 4)

The Sega Game Gear was a handheld ahead of its time, but its original screen hasn't aged quite as gracefully. Enter CleanScreen Version 4—the most stable, advanced, and refined display upgrade ever engineered for Sega’s classic powerhouse.

By leveraging cutting-edge manufacturing and new technology, we’ve managed to lower the cost of entry compared to Version 3, while simultaneously packing in more features than ever before. Whether you are a casual player or a hardcore modder, this is the definitive way to experience 8-bit Sega history.


Why Version 4 is the New Gold Standard

  • Universal Compatibility: This is the world’s only screen that fully supports every single Game Gear revision (VA0, VA1, VA2, VA4, and VA5). No more guessing which kit you need.
  • The "Wire-Free" Revolution: Forget the bird's nest of wires. Years ago, we released the world's first wire-free kits for Game Gear. Our innovative ribbon-based installation provides a clean, OEM-quality fit.
    • Note: Ribbons for VA0/1/2 are available now; VA4/5 ribbons are arriving early 2026!
  • Infinity Scaling & Pixel Perfection: Enjoy integer scaling for crystal-clear visuals or use Infinity Scaling to shrink the display below 1 inch or blow it up to 400% for... I don't know, Super-Sized Sonic?!
  • Triple Frame Buffer: No tearing, frame drops or stutter. With full triple-buffer and frame locking to prevent any vsync or tearing, and supporting any frequency from the Game Gear (for NTSC and Japanese support), we have you covered.
  • Region Support: If you are using the RePCB with the region switch, you can now run the Game Gear in 50 or 60Hz. The new Version 4 supports these effortlessly.
  • Retro Authenticity: Toggle between scanline emulation and pixel grids to capture that nostalgic CRT glow, or use the high-resolution IPS panel for a vibrant, modern look.
  • Total Control: Use the original contrast wheel to adjust brightness and navigate a sleek on-screen menu to center your image perfectly within the housing.

Future-Proof Your Handheld

Version 4 isn't just a screen; it’s a platform. With user-upgradable firmware, you can download future updates and custom features as the community grows. We’ve even included a Custom NeoPixel LED output, allowing you to sync case lighting or power advanced LED mods directly from the board.


Go "Pro" Whenever You're Ready

Every Version 4 kit is built with the future in mind. Keeping the cost down for those wanting just core features and not over-paying for things they will never use - you can upgrade to the Pro Edition at any time—even months after your initial purchase—to unlock a suite of elite tools:

Pro Feature Why You Need It
Advanced Diagnostics On-board debug features to troubleshoot your install instantly.
Desktop Suite PC/Mac/Linux software for screenshots and real-time oscilloscope readings.
Custom Splash Screens Upload your own startup logos via PC or SD Card.
Extra Button Wire up the additional TEST button from the CleanScreen to anywhere you like. A touch button, a physical button on the back or even a magnetic activated reed switch. Trigger screen captures or anything else you want.

The kit comes with:

  • CleanScreen V4 Board
  • Wire-free ribbons for VA0/1/2, and free VA4/5 ribbons can be sent in future for just postage cost
  • 3D Bracket for screen + Screws
  • 640x480 HD IPS Screen
