It was late 1992. The Lynx 2 was available, but I saw a Lynx 1 at a local toystore. It was cheaper than the Lynx 2. I think the price was 220,- DM.
The shopkeeper told me, that they had two boxes of Lynx 1. One came with California Games and the other one had the pack-in game missing. She told me, that if I take the one with the missing game, I can choose one free game.
After examining the box and finding the Califonia Games cart inside the PSU box of the Lynx's box, I choose Rygar and had 2 free games! What a great Christmas gift for me! :-D
Hey, I was a kid...
