| If the Nomad's display was anything like the SMS-based Sega Gamegear, then it may not have had CRT blur but it did put its own not-so-crisp spin on the picture: https://youtu.be/pU4jnSVfZsI?t=188 (left side at the time marker is the original Gamegear screen, right is a mod with a modern screen) Oh, found one of a Nomad with the original screen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9j0mXNb6YPk Similar. A little less washed-out, but still not what we think of when we think of the precision of a modern LCD. As I recall, LCD PC monitors until some time into, I dunno, maybe '05 or so, were regarded as almost always worse than CRT monitors in practically every way[0], including picture quality. Better than a typical consumer tube TV, maybe, but even some of those produced a crisper picture than a lot of LCDs, especially tiny low-power ones like that (the Sony Wega comes to mind) [EDIT] [0] Practically every way except size & weight, I mean, obviously, and despite crushing CRTs on that front, were pretty unpopular due to being so much worse otherwise. |
