No official ways, but there has been atleast fan made consolized Game Gear and TV mod for Game Gear it self

Dr Agon on here has done a consolised Game Gear - search for the his thread for pics

there is also this device for the PC called the Retrode you can use it to play your cartridges on the Computer and if your Computer is hooked to an HD TV like mine, by extension you can play GameGear Games on TV

here is a link to the site

Just use a pc, pad and an emulator, you could be playing on a tv today with hardware you probably already own it just wouldn't be the original hardware the games were written for.

how? I was thinking about this yesterday. I have, somewhere, a connector to play Playstation controllers on the PC, but never used the connector...and how do you hook a computer to a TV?

depends on the TV, most HD TV's have an VGA input, which makes it easy as then you only need the VGA cable you would normally hook your pc to your Computer monitor with, but if you have an older TV you would need to get something like an VGA to RCA cable RCA being the basic red yellow and white cable, or VGA to component which component is the red, blue, and green Cables

If you have modern TV and reasonably new computer simply use HDMI like I do.

And I play with SNES Ascii pad with the SNES to USB conveter.

i don't have a HDMI port on my computer. I do have that on my TV (it's a 37" VIZIO flat screen L?D...I still don't understand the difference in LCD and LED, and wish I knew which was better, since I plan on getting a 60+ inch screen for Christmas)

In short, LED is brighter and crisper than LCD. LED > LCD

Depends on what video/audio output your computer has. If it has HDMI then awesome, that's perfect.
If not look for a VGA to HDMI cord or if your TV has a VGA port on the back you can simply plug VGA to VGA.

This is where i buy most of my cords:
