What were the unreleased Lynx games? A: The following games were announced at one time or another as being planned for the Lynx. With the dissolution of Atari, the chances are very slim that any of these games will ever be produced or released. However, a few enterprising companies and individuals have considered plans to either finish their Lynx titles for release, to sell finished-but-unreleased games, or to produce new games on their own.

Alkaline batteries provides power for up to 20 hours of playing. * Atari Lynx carrying pouch. Holds a Lynx, several game cards, and a ComLynx cable.

Was there a TV tuner option for the Lynx? A. No. Atari's official position was that market research showed that a TV tuner, while a neat idea, would not be bought by most players. The unofficial word from Stephen Landrum is that the Lynx screen display is not capable of handling a broadcast television picture. (Just a Note on this one from Videology: I hear someone now has a TV adaptor as long as you are willing to modify your Lynx) ============================================================================== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
