Hello everyone and welcome to the past.  This site is dedicated to the owner of The Games Arena's next console the Atari Lynx.  Hope you enjoy the site and here is a little introduction.

LYNX - Once again, Atari had a tough time of it, this time with their rival to the Game Boy.  It was a technical marvel-sleek, back-lighted and in full colour-but it guzzed batteries at a ridiculous rate, making actually playing the thing impossible.  As the Game Boy conquered the world, Atari's expensive machine stumbled, fell and died. But now it is time to get one it can be picked up for less than £40 and the games can also be very cheap some just £3 try it you'll like it.

RECOMMENDED SYSTEM PRICE £35
