I said it before here, but I wish krikzz made this next. I mean he did a GG ED so. Me and some friends were discussing it and we would pay $99 each for it and we are 10 people so that's $1,000 right off the bat for him. What do you guys think? I contacted him and Chilly about it, but idk if krikzz is interested in it. He views and sometimes post on this site so I hope he sees this.
A Lynx everdrive, plus the gadget being worked on to connect the Lynx to a tv/monitor would really make my day. At least the tv gadget should become a reality later this year, hopefully, the everdrive will too!
So count me in Vector, now you have 11 people ;)!

Awesome Saturndual32.
Neo, how much would you pay, $77 like the GG ED ? http://shop.retrogate.com/Everdrive-GG-EDGG.htm
I'm sure a Lynx ED would sell less than maybe a GG ED, so $99 is understandable but there is definitely a demand for Lynx ED. But I'm guessing a GB ED would sell like hot cakes and might be next portable ED, yeah but a Lynx ED next would be great.

Judging from the videos, it doesnt look as pixalated as i tought the Lynx would do on a big screen.
There are some pretty cool homebrews been worked on for the Lynx that have threads on that Lynx forum too, be sure to check them out!
If it came with a good protective shell. (which might be difficult since Lynx games were just pieces of plastic with a chip inside).Quote:

Me too. I have a Jaguar, but neither the Lynx nor the GB/GBC.Quote:

No rom of Thea Realm Fighters means no interest from me for a Jag flashcart.
I think certain elements wish to maintain the extreme prices for much of the Atari equipment and software. BSG can run $500+ on eBay. Even crappy carts sell loose for $20 to $40 where a similar game on most other consoles would probably not exceed $5. Decent games run from $70 to $120 easily.Quote:

The Jaguar community is filled with elitist pricks who love to claim that they own stuff that others don't or cannot afford.
The Jaguar community has many members which think that high ass prices make the Jaguar items more "valuable" or special than the other consoles stuff.
The Jaguar community thinks that releasing new games in extremely low quantities and at high/very high prices is the coolest thing.
The Jaguar community loves to spread myths and inconsistent info about the system capabilities and its games.
The Jaguar community loves to use all of the above "facts" to claim that owning a Jaguar and collecting for it is more "pleasant" than collecting for the other systems.
The Jaguar community sucks balls.
Lynxman on Atari Age still produces a flash cart, although it's one game at a time.

Another user Flavor began working on a true multi-flash cart, but hasn't done much more. Unfortunately he seems to move onto other projects instead.

As for Krikzz, I don't think he's interested in ANY Atari consoles. Part of the reason might be that he's never seen one in person!
I chatted with Krikkz before buying my Skunkboard. He said that he would never be able to import a Jaguar and would rather focus on systems with enough userbase to justify the expense. I would REALLY go for a Lynx Flash cart if it was priced like an Everdrive.
