I fully agree + the lack of developers for releasing more games and more hits. the Lynx was too dependent of the Atari sphere and did not attract the best companies. Very few "non Atari" hits were ported on the Lynx: Shadow of the beast, Desert Strike and basta...

In France the GB was sold in every hypermarket while to find a Lynx you had to go in secialized shops in electronics such as la Fnac for example. I was living in the Parisian suburbs and I used to go in Paris to buy Lynx games at la Fnac otherwise almost nowhere they were to be found except in Auchan hypermarkets at Christmas time... One single time, there were Atari advertisement for the Lynx in the subway...

Maybe you were not born at that time but Atari was already in bad condition when releasing the Lynx. The Lynx had some weaknesses (battery autonomy, size) compared to the the GB the main problem was the games. Atari was at that time far weaker than Nintendo and could never attract the most famous developers. Most of the Lynx games are were from the beginning from Epyx and Atari (Ten Gen, Atari games) while Nintendo could count on numerous well known companies. Despite the Epyx first games were amazing (Electrocop, Blue Lightning...) the Lynx had few games and even few hits to help selling a lot of Lynx. By the time Psygnosis or Electronic Arts released for the Lynx, it was already too late: the Lynx were over flood by the GB in sales. Marketing and advertisement were far in the advantage of the Nintendo because of the lack of resources of Atari. I would summarize the Lynx failure by the fact that the Tramiel receipt: don't spend in ad, it will sold by itself was totally old fashioned in 1990.

Definitive guide to burning 3DO games?
Felyx replied to Rick Dangerous's topic in 3DO Interactive Multiplayer
It too simplistic: what file to burn? for 3DO there are 2 files in a folder: one cue and the iso: what to place in the CB burning software? The as the 3DO laser lens is old, you must burn at the lowest speed possible, i.e. x1 or x2 Then Imgburn is for PC only, what to use on Mac? As you can see it is not that simple at all when you are a beginner -
Definitive guide to burning 3DO games?
Felyx replied to Rick Dangerous's topic in 3DO Interactive Multiplayer
Hi all, Any tuto for burning ISO under Mac OS X? I read the previous posts but the alternative to Img burn on Mac (isky DVD creator) doesn't speak at all about CD iso so Iam wondering if it really works for that?
