The 5200 ver seems to (my opinion only) run a bit faster and has more color

I only have 2 atari 2600's. Thats just because I only had the Atari 2600 in the day. But have all the other Atari's emulated, just to see how they looked like.

did you get the lynx I or the lynx II?

i agree they are a great system to own, and used to have one years and years ago!

i think my favourite game would have to be California Games - it was a different version to what you'd find on other systems and i especially liked the surfing event, i remember doing QUADRUPLE 360 spins!

Other than that, Dracula was a pretty cool adventure game, and if you like puzzle games to keep you going for a while, then get Super Sqweek!

im guessing that with the newer 2500mAh batteries, the lynx should run for a decent amount of time on batteries.

ps - what games do you have?

It was the Atari Lynx I,has a bit of wear on the back of the console but other than that in pretty good condition,came with an official Atari Lynx Travel bag.

The two games i`ve got for it are...KLAX & Hard Drivin but hope to add more to the collection in the near future,have a complete list of all games released on the lynx and aim to get every single one Very Happy
