I never did like Joust. The controls are lousy on each and every version, and the Lynx version is no different. I like the game concept, but the controls ruin it for me. I haven't played it for a long time and it took me a while to find out what to do (pounce on top of the other birds) and get the eggs that pop out of them. And then there's the fact that starting on wave 3, there's two pits of lava that the stupid bird can die in. Man I wish there were "teddy bear" versions of each game on the Lynx like on the 2600.
