| | Atari Lynx - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Lynx was also the first gaming console with hardware support for zooming/distortion of sprites, allowing fast pseudo-3D games with unrivaled quality at the time and a capacity for drawing filled polygons with limited CPU intervention. |  | | The Atari Lynx is Atari's only handheld game console, and the first such machine with a color display. |  | | The Sega Game Gear followed a similar formula to the Atari Lynx and the Game Gear did fare somewhat better due to stronger marketing and better titles. |

| | Atari - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Atari develops, publishes and distributes games for all major video game consoles, as well as for the personal computer, and is currently one of the largest third-party publishers of video games in the United States. |  | | The Atari 5200 game console, released as a next-generation follow up to the 2600, was based on the Atari 800 computer (but was incompatible with Atari 800 game cartridges), and its sales never met the company's expectations. |  | | In the meantime, Atari Games was bought out by its employees in 1986, who also founded Tengen to bring their arcade games in to the home. |

| | Atari7800.com - ATARI LYNX History |
 | | The $189.95 Lynx came packed with everything you needed to get started, including an a/c adapter, com-lynx cable, and the California Games game card, which was a small wafer about half the size of a credit card, on which the game was stored on a ROM. |  | | However Nolan had envisioned early on the potential of a portable videogame that could be treated like a record player, where you can purchase new games to play on the portable game system, unlike the monotony of the dedicated single-title portable games of the late 1970's and early 1980's. |  | | As Atari pressed the Lynx forward during its 1991 relaunch, world issues for the first time had a profound affect on the gaming industry, especially the Atari Lynx. |

| | Atari Lynx (History, Specs, Pictures) |
 | | Having said that, Atari was responsible for a line of successful consoles and daring ideas that paved the way for many other companies to make it big in the industry. |  | | Accessories for the Lynx included the ComLynx cable for multiplayer games, AC adaptor, cigarette lighter adaptor, sun shield/sun guard, battery pack (D type) and a carrying case. |  | | Since this is the first section I'm writing about an Atari console, let me just say that I didn't grow up playing Atari games. |

 | | Though it's games and the unit were superior, Atari lacked the amount of games and the presence to assure success. |  | | Enter Atari, who bought the Lynx technology and marketed it as the Atari Lynx in 1989. |  | | This also switched the controls, producing an effect similar to the cocktail versions of the coinops, allowing 2 players to play on the console. |

| | Atari Lynx Console Information |
 | | Eventually, Lynx was pushed out of the picture as the GameBoy gained more and more dominance, being followed distantly by Sega's Game Gear. |  | | Another thing to note about the Lynx is its capability of being played upside down. |  | | The system had great potential and some great games (apart from the lack of killer apps) including some excellent arcade translations. |

| | Welcome to JustClaws, UK site for Atari Jaguar 64, Atari Lynx, Atari classic consoles, and VMLabs NUON. |
 | | The Alter Atari describe a different (imaginary) Atari history and present where the enormous success of the Atari Jaguar 64 console brought about a new revival in Atari leading to Atari's global domination of the videogames market, and the development of a series of ground-breaking products including the Atari Jaguar/2, Atari Puma/128, and Lynx/64. |  | | DarkKnightGames was one of the most high-profile game developers for the Atari Jaguar from 1998 until around 2000, during which time they had only established for themselves an enormous reputation for pushing vapourware. |  | | The Jaguar Action Group fights for continued game development and publication of new videogames for the classic Atari Jaguar 64 Multimedia Entertainment System, the first 64-bit video games console, in both the UK and world-wide. |

Predator or even a Tricorder for a hoped for Star Trek game. |  | | It purchased a portable video game system from a financially strapped game company called Epyx. |
