Imagine atari lynx games on 3DS & switch VC

[johannesmutlu]

While there are sega gamegear games on the 3DS virtual console, there were never atari lynx games on it,also atari never brought their lynx games on a disc for consoles or on a 3DS card,may ask why.

It would be great to see atari lynx games being offivcialy rereleased on today's handhelds like psvita and or on 3DS virtual console.

 

It would be also great for nintendo because backthen they recieved a letter from epix to get the rights for the handy/lynx,and eventrough nintendo refused but if nintendo will accept to allow atari to put their lynx games on the 3DS & switch virtual console,this way nintendo will symbolically get a taste from what they could,ve take in 1988 in what could,ve be their own system, a rechance to accept parts of the lynx stuff, the games and the emulator it runs on.

 

To avoid games to be too blockey they could implement an optional upscaling smothing filter against it.

 

What do you atari lynx & nintendo fans thinking?

Is the 3DS really powerful enough to emulate the Atari Lynx? Imagine trying to downclock your single-core ARM11 smartphone to 268MHz and putting the aLynx emulator (or something similar) on it, hence the original 3DS' spec. If it doesn't work well, maybe make it New3DS-exclusive with the triple-core 804MHz design?

 

And the Nintendo Switch console is more powerful than the New3DS handheld.

Speaking about the atari lynx,the atari lynx was released in 1989 with forward thinking features including a left snd right hand feature wich became another big selling point of the lynx and being the first with such kind of feature,also the wonderswam had a left & right hand optional feature wich came on the market in 1999,but apart from that no other handheld did had such feature,but 16 years later once nintendo released their nintendo DS ,it turns out it could do left and right hand function TROUGHT SOFTWARE instead in games such as brain training ,am stun that this is actually possible since the nintendo DS was never designed with left or right hand optional features in mind,BUT trough some clever programming tricks in software it became just possible,same thing with the nintendo DSI,3DS and NEW 3DS,who had ever tout that nintendo would took over that idea from other companies with their not so successful handhelds???

not only that but the nintendo DS among it’s successors opened the door and attracted both expert and casual gamers as well and it bloodly exceeded the sales of the gameboy by a mile,this is simply mind blowing,all because of it’s ease of use and good games,it’s touch screen and second screen among other things.
