"The production was around eight months in total, so relatively short.
We already had the heart of the game design, concept art, and a tech demo which reduced risk and helped us to hit the ground running.
The core team was made up of approximately 15 people however we pulled in additional support to help out with UI and art, which made the team almost double in size at the peak of production."

Interview with Sega Hardlight studio director Neall Jones (ChuChu Rocket Universe and Sonic Racing for Apple Arcade)

Apple Arcade gave us an opportunity to release two titles on a new service at launch, which is something we'd never done before.
We're really happy with the success of both games (ChuChu Rocket Universe and Sonic Racing for Apple Arcade).
It won't be a surprise for you to learn that Sonic has outperformed ChuChu Rocket - the movie definitely helped with our marketing!

SEGA GBA games totally worth playing : ChuChu Rocket!

Even though its on a smart cartridge, doesn’t mean this game has less content than its Dreamcast big brother.
This game actually features the 150 puzzles found in the original game. 
Not only that, it had 2,500 user submitted puzzle levels from the online service.
The level editor included allowed users to make 4 player puzzles and of course allowed users to play the game with up to 3 more Gameboys.
Pretty damn solid release for a GBA port!

SEGA Game Gear Micro Hardware Review – Bite-Sized Nostalgia

The original BLACK is the most plain yet iconic of the four and the included games reflect that classic feel. Included are Sonic The Hedgehog, Puyo Puyo 2, OutRun and Royal Stone.
The game selection covers a variety of genres and represent some of the handheld’s best titles. These games are also the most english-friendly, with only the RPG Royal Stone presenting a language barrier. 
If one was only interested in importing one Game Gear Micro, I would say black is the way to go. Solid game selection and an iconic color.
