Lucky everyone was arguing about N64 raws cos' otherwise, someone might have noticed i missed a letter from the spine!! ;)

 ;D ;D

As for the games I still need covering lynx wise:

Bill & Ted
Dirty Larry
Dracula the Undead
Gates of Zendocon
Klax
Kung Food
Ninja Gaiden 3
Paperboy
Prophecy 1: The Viking Child
Qix
Rampart
Robotron 2084
Switchblade 2

I could provide you with good scans if you'd need some because I bought those all in a lot sealed two months ago. :) I would do them myself too sometime in the future though. ;)

I have Zendocon, Switchblade 2 and Paperboy so they are ok. If you get a chance to scan the fronts of the others (i made up a template for the back and spine so no need for them), that would be nice. No rush though, im a touch busy myself at the moment. ;)

Is Switchblade 2 a port of the Amiga game or is that Switchblade a different game and has just the same name? That game was awesome. Awesome enough to buy a Lynx :)

Excellent. ;) And Switchblade is indeed a conversion of the Amiga/ST game.

Batman Returns



...and he does so using the Master System cover. The original is just a piccie of the Batman logo but its still worth converting when i get time.

Switchblade II



I noticed that Tik had shuffled some stuff around from LJ's original template so i copied that layout for people who had allready DL games in that style...



The version in the top template has an english only version too, although i believe Lynx games had no region specific carts or packaging. On the plus side of converting these, Lynx carts fit in the GBA slot of a DS case!!. On the minus side, Lynx instruction manuals dont. :( There's allways something aint' there....

Great cover as always!

Switchblade 2, I loved that game. I'm seriously considering getting a LYNX II just for that game.

Its not a bad version except for the lack of music during levels. Plays well, but a lot of Lynx games do. It's a surprising little machine for its age, way ahead of anything else at the time and for several years after for that matter.

Electrocop



Take your 'Power Ranger' and rescue the presidents daughter within 1 hour of realtime( ala Prince of Persia). Strange that they should include computer terminals with minigames (Breakout, Asteroids & a word game) when time is of the essence.
