The lynx was a cool system. I did enjoy hydra, apb and warbirds on it. Lots of good arcade ports.

MrDead724d ago

APB was a really good port, after seeing this article I just ordered Gauntlet off ebay

SICKINDIVIDUAL724d ago

Way ahead of its time and definitely not utilized to its full potential.

There's an MK1 port by homebrew crowd that absolutely mops the floor with the Game Gear /genesis versions

MrDead724d ago

Still have my Atari Lynx, Chips Challenge, Xenophobe, Rampage and Paper Boy still get regular playtime on it.

darthv72724d ago

Worst (for me) is the 5200. That controller alone just kills any positive the system had. I grew up with the 2600 so it is very near and dear to me but I would say my favorite is the 7800 due to it also supporting 2600 carts.

The jag was very under utilized. Their decision to mix and match components made it even more troublesome to develop for than the saturn. In the right hands... it could do some impressive stuff. Sadly it didn't last long enough (commercially) to see the fruits of that labor. And Atari didnt exactly provide the best support for programming.

Maybe the handheld. Everything else made by Atari was outclassed by the competition.

Markdn724d ago

When the 2600 dropped nothing g could touch it

Anomander723d ago

Loved the 2600 and the memories it brings back. The hours playing Asteroids and missle command on rainy days.

well, the switch 2 has two holidays in the us, thanksgiving and Christmas.

so id say its fairly possible. the rest of the world will also grab them

Abriael2d ago

Yeah doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility as long as they have enough supply.

Si-Fly2d ago

Do people buy each other games consoles for Thanksgiving? I’m in Europe and always assumed it was just Christmas where gifts were exchanged.

Skate-AK2d ago

I don't think it's so much Thanksgiving, but that Black Friday is the day after.

darthv722d ago (Edited 2d ago )

That time is often referred to as the start of the Xmas shopping season. For the last few years, retailers would do 'black Friday' deals at various times throughout the year. While many still prefer to start their shopping in the mid to late November, others will just buy when they feel the time (and prices) are right for them.

Switch and Switch are a different kettle of fish. A sell out at launch by the diehards, strong sales, then the non diehards will be put off by the £75 ($99) games, including the stupid download cards which are topping £65 ($85). Not rocket science to work out how the Switch 2 is going to pan out. The PS5 has sold well, but games at £70, sales have been low. As game sales drop, prices will rise. Sony could knock out all their games for £40 and still make a killing selling more games. There's no denying that a gaming crash is looming.

Rancegamerx2d ago

I agree, I don't see the Switch 2 selling anywhere near the numbers that these predictions suggest or what the general buzz is implying. While the initial sales will likely be strong, driven by diehard fans, I anticipate a gradual decline. It may not drop off immediately, but over time, sales will inevitably taper.

PRIMORDUS2d ago

Not paying for something that's not worth more than the price it was advertised, which is $449 - $499.
