As with many classic consoles, there is a modern retrogaming community, creating and selling games for the system.
Features
The Atari Lynx's innovative features include being the first color handheld, with a backlit display, a switchable right-handed/left-handed (upside down) configuration, and the ability to network with up to 17 other units via its "Comlynx" system (though most games would network eight or fewer players). Comlynx was originally developed to run over infrared links (and was codenamed RedEye). This was changed to a cable-based networking system before the final release.
In 1989, Atari Corporation had the most powerful game machine around! (More below...)

The Nintendo Gameboy VS The Atari Lynx: Retro Showdown
Subscribe: https://bit.ly/Sub_to_TheGamer
In our retro Showdown, we are going to determine whether the Nintendo Game Boy is in fact better than the Atari Lynx. 1989 was an exciting time for handheld video games - there were a big three to choose from: the Game Boy, the Lynx, and the Sega Game Gear. Nintendo sold more than the other two combined by a longshot - but was it the greater engineering marvel?
The Lynx had fewer games, and in turn, less hits and household names, but what it lacked in starpower it made up for in actual power. It has a 4096 color palette compared to the Game Boy’s monochromatic super simple display. The integrated math and graphics co-processors and pseudo 3D color graphics display were really good looking, making even it’s most terrible titles look better than th...

Yes in case anyone notices, I meant to say the Lynx CPU is *more* than twice as fast as the NES, not just twice as fast. It's 4Mhz and the NES is 1.79 Mhz NTSC.
Also the game is called Warbirds with an s on the end. That somehow got swallowed when I said it.

Let's be honest here: The Lynx was pocket-sized only in the broadest sense, assuming a very deep pocket, because the first-gen Lynx was freaking huge. Just the same, a young Spiderma-- er, I mean Tobey Maguire here manages to get some game time in while sitting in the can.

In our retro Showdown, we are going to determine whether the Nintendo Game Boy is in fact better than the Atari Lynx. 1989 was an exciting time for handheld video games - there were a big three to choose from: the Game Boy, the Lynx, and the Sega Game Gear. Nintendo sold more than the other two combined by a longshot - but was it the greater engineering marvel?
The Lynx had fewer games, and in turn, less hits and household names, but what it lacked in starpower it made up for in actual power. It has a 4096 color palette compared to the Game Boy’s monochromatic super simple display. The integrated math and graphics co-processors and pseudo 3D color graphics display were really good looking, making even it’s most terrible titles look better than the Game Boy’s best titles. It’s ambidextrous, as you can play right handed, and rotate it to play left handed, and even vertically for some games. Neat!
The Game Boy has far superior battery life, and has a great many well known titles. It was better marketed and more easily accessible. But does that make it better? We’re going to look at the big picture to see if we can prove that the underdog deserves a revisionist history’s chance at greatness in 2021, and if the Game Boy maybe doesn’t deserve all the glory it gets and got. So check out our latest video and be sure to let us know what you think! Thanks for watching TheGamer! Let’s get started.
