One of the major differences between the NA and EU Game Gear models is in the D-pad; the D-pad on the EU model has a pivot ball on the underside, which NA models lack. 

While our replacement Game Gear buttons were designed for the NA model (and therefore lack this pivot ball), this 3D-printed adapter can simply be inserted beneath the D-pad to serve this function. It can even be used on NA consoles, for those who would prefer a pivot ball style D-pad!

For all of our European customers purchasing our Game Gear buttons, use code GGEU at checkout to receive a 100% discount on your pivot ball adapter (one free adapter for each purchased button set)!
