Star Blader is a new one-on-one fighting game for the Atari Lynx hand held. Retroguru are working hard to finish the fighting game, a genre that is not saturated at all on the Atari portable. Honestly, I cannot think of another one-on-one fighting game on the Atari Lynx. Was there even one released? I know […]

Battlezone 2000 Open World Access Made Easier on Atari Lynx
December 3rd, 2020 Carl Williams Battlezone 2000 saw release on the Atari Lynx in 1995 by Atari Corporation. What is more interesting than a new game for a handheld over half a decade after launch is what is inside that cart. While it has been widely known for years now, there is a hidden game in there.

Retroguru Sends Atari Lynx Gamers Gift
September 24th, 2019 Carl Williams Ah, the good old Atari Lynx, the portable that just couldn’t get off the ground. Blame the platform cost parents and fans had to shell out. Blame the lack of big-name games. Whatever the reason the Lynx was not as popular as it could have been, the fact remains, independent homebrew developers are keeping it […]

Once it was proven in court companies like Activision could make games without working with Atari it opened the gates for the earliest third party developers to spring up. Many might think that it was this […]

Switchblade II for Atari Lynx Sees First Hack Released
January 31st, 2018 Carl Williams It is not all that often that I get to write about Atari Lynx hacks. This could be because there simply are not a lot of them. It could be because the portable was not all that popular. It could be because there are simply not many hacking tools for the Lynx. Whatever the reason, […]

Double Dragon Pulls Brawler Genre into Mainstream – July 2nd, 1987 – Today in Video Game History
July 2nd, 2016 Carl Williams When you think of arcade brawlers there are not many names that will top Double Dragon. Technos knew they had a good blend of unique to the competition game play and graphics with this one. Sure, there were other brawlers available before Double Dragon but none captured the fan base that this arcade unit did. […]
