Announced on the Sega Japan Twitter account in celebration of the company’s 60th anniversary, the throwback platform boasts a minuscule dimensions of 80mm by 43mm by 20mm. For comparison’s sake, the original Sega Game Gear released in 1990 measured 210mm by 113mm by 38mm.

A Japanese reveal trailer shows that the entire device literally fits in the palm of a hand. Other art shows that a goofy snap-on “Sega Big Window” magnifying glass can be used for those who have trouble viewing the 1.15-inch screen.
