Atari Lynx Mini

[Rodimus]

Well a frenchman built his own Atari Lynx mini and is still working on it. I had an Atari Lynx ( still have it). This video is in French. It looks amazing. I would love for this to be available. There are subtitles.

I would love for handheld "minis" to be the next thing. I have a Raspberry Pi in a Gameboy replica, and it's just a fun novelty playing GB games like that, especially with the right shaders.

 

I'd be there day one for an ACTUAL Game Gear mini, and I might actually do it myself at some point.

To be fair you could build a Lynx the size of a small wine cooler and it would still be "mini" compared to the original.

have you not seen the GameGear minis? they came out in Japan. Only had a few games and came in different colors. 

 

Also yes I had and have my Atari Lynx from back in the day. I don't have my model one because it broke and I sent it to Atari for repair and they offered me the model 2. Model 2 has a great feature to put display to sleep and save battery life when paused for any amount of time.

 

Thinking what I used to carry with me on a plane back then I had my Atari Lynx and a Sony Video Walkman that I watched Back to the future and Batman Returns.

Yes. I have two of them and I hacked the red one. I like them but they are sadly a novelty as the d-pad is pretty bad. (white one came with the aleste collection le).
