108 Stars Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 although it was nice to finally pick up Hyperdrome as well. How is Hyperdrome? Is it for sale as a repro anywhere? Maybe you could do a YouTube video so we can see some gameplay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael David Morsette Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 (edited) There are a couple of places that list it for sale, though I don't know if you can actually get it from them. Try here: http://songbird-productions.com/catalog.shtml Or here: http://www.telegames.co.uk/shop/index.php?route=product/category&path=324_63_64&page=5 Also here is a list of places I bought from when getting my collection: http://atariage.com/forums/blog/494/entry-9304-buy-lynx-games-and-systems/ Edited February 7, 2014 by MrBland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure I can. Is it really all that rare? I avoided it for years based on poor reviews...and generally agree with the reviews. I played it for about ten minutes until I realized that it was kind of like a crappy version of Ballblazer with an ugly colour pallette.

djrodderz Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 I love collecting for the Lynx. I completed the original releases all boxed and complete a few years ago... To me part of the obsession with the Lynx WAS the cardboard box it came in and the unusual cartridge types! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+davidcalgary29 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I somehow had high hopes for this All hopes are dashed! (unless you happen to like crappy Ballblazer variants). I tried it for another 20 minutes tonight and, well, it still sucks (and sort of hurts your eyes when you play it). I can post some screenshots tomorrow, if you like, and will work on longer video segments. I may not have the finished game, though: my copy has an Atari copyright (1992) on the title screen, and I've read somewhere that Telegames put its trademark on it when it released it. My Fat Bobby proto also has an Atari copyright on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_afternoon Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I just need a year or so longer then until i finally get it Thanks for your honest opinion. Somewhere in my brain I had somewhat classified Hyperdrome as "undiscovered Lynx gem"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael David Morsette Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I posted a little bit on Hyperdrome here if your interested: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/203163-mr-blands-handhelds/page-3?do=findComment&comment=2924699 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

108 Stars Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 So... what about Geoduel? Atari Age has screenshots, so SOMEONE must have a ROM. Was it also released in some form? https://atariage.com/software_page.html?SoftwareID=3354 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael David Morsette Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I'm not sure where Bitchy fits into this, though, as I believe that 25 copies were made (when?) and generally sold to those who wanted it (who?). Here is some info for whoever is interested: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/203163-mr-blands-handhelds/page-3?do=findComment&comment=2925527 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GadgetUK Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Here is my Raiden Cart... That's the same as mine, it's an unofficial repro - not the telegames version =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Stars Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 That's the same as mine, it's an unofficial repro - not the telegames version =/ I wonder where those repro guys always find good ROMs for it. I never came across another one than the CES version 3, which suffers from heavy glitches beginning in the middle of level 1 and crashes soon after.
