    Did anyone here have the Lynx? I’ve never even seen one except at the National Videogame Museum in Texas, but it looked really cool. :)

      My friend had one. I had a Game Gear. Between us, we probably singlehandedly kept an entire battery factory in production.

      (Raises hand)

      Had one of the second-gens for a few months; wisely was able to sell it on once I moved with a bunch of carts. It was wild to have a color screen at that time (well before Nintendo) and some games like Rygar and Blue Lightning were fun…but damn, did it eat batteries, 6 AAs at a time, IIRC. That thing was in need of a Mr Fusion.

    Fun video given I have no experience with the Lynx. I saw a few good ones in there. Most game libraries seem to be dross with a few great titles and this one is no different.
