  1. Cool. Looks like a nice fresh concept for the lynx!
  2. Maybe something's off with the ribbon cable to the screen
  3. I like popping in to provide facts about crash n burn. It came out in 1993.
  4. Crash n burn is 3d polygons, it just has a pre defined path for the camera and pre defined instructions for exactly which polygons to render which allows it to show a huge draw distance and huge amt of polygons for the time.
  5. Heh funny burnout was likened to crash n burn. I'd say there are no similarities other than them both being vehicle racing games. Maybe they stuck in the reference because cnb was the most advanced home console racing game at the time and for a key competitor.
  6. Is anyone looking into creating a run of pcbs? Or is that wishful thinking on my part
  7. Probably easiest to construct it yourself by ear.
  8. Hard Drivin is awesome as a technical showcase for the lynx, its basically a 3D polygon racing game on something with the same cpu as the NES! It is possible to get used to the lag/controls and become good at it. But yeah, it's certainly not a smooth or good playing 3d game when compared to 3d games of the mid 90s and beyond
  9. Cool mod. The console looks like it has nipples ?
  10. Just checking if you've messaged the guy, sometimes even if a guy's auction says it doesn't ship internationally, the seller will make an exception if they know they have a buyer.
  11. As a kid in the early 90s, a main selling point for the lynx and game gear for me was that you could game in the dark with them, like, in your bed after your parents thought you were asleep. However, that's moot anyway because my parents were too frugal to buy me any handheld game system when I was a kid despite my asking and wishing
  12. Was cruising ebay when I noticed this, an auction for 5 jaguar consoles and 1 jag CD unit. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Atari-Jaguar-Console-LOT-of-5-/253542759662?hash=item3b08537cee%3Ag%3AC~oAAOSwtNdaxltT&nma=true&si=tq9fg9hlOspPohJN%252Fzsyfp9K75I%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 What caught my eye though was this information in the description I know the jag community is full of drama, but what kind of fun story could have resulted in 5 jag consoles being seized and resold by the police!
  13. Yeah I heard Hi Octane used the magic carpet engine. Even still, Hi Octane's graphics had to be stripped down for the saturn conversion, in comparison to the PS1 and PC versions, and the saturn version wasn't exactly silky smooth.
  14. Cool. I think its funny that he chose Jaguar as a console of choice for its smooth 60fps scrolling, when the console gets a bad rap (in 3d graphics terms) for many sluggish games.
  15. Kinda reminds me of a company shirt where jaguar is the name of the company due to the logo placement.
  16. I have 10 lightly used UGCs available for $10 plus the cost of shipping. Let me know if interested. These are the cases that can hold genesis, snes, nes, and various other cartridge games. They look like this:
  17. I think it's very common for lynx screens to look like yours these days. I was concerned when I first got my lynx in 2013 and it looked like that, but after researching other people's forum posts on that issue of uneven lighting, it seems to be very common and some have said the screen has looked like that since back in the day. I think I heard the lynx lcd is actually composed of 3 different lcds next to each other, it could be that one of them is closer to the back light so has received more heat over the years resulting in the washed out stripe.

  19. Really cool! Nice work! Symphony of the lynxes
  20. My Kay bee toys had them for a long time. I think they even hooked up a kiosk to generate interest in their piles of stuff years after the Jaguar was dead. I didn't buy any of it at the time, too busy with playstation.
  21. I've bought used games before that contained high scores and/or level passwords listed in the high score/notes pages, it never bothered me and actually I kinda enjoyed it as a time capsule and/or goal to beat the scores of the previous owner. Frankly, that's what the high score table / notes section is for, for the owner to write notes or high scores, and these games are being sold as used, as in, previously owned. However, if there was extensive writing on other pages of the manual, such as pages that do not invite the owner to write on them, or if the item was sold as used but "like new" or mint condition and contained the scores, I could see a bone to pick with that.
  22. Thinning out my collection a bit, a handful of games per system are available. https://www.ebay.com/sch/dukeofurl2000/m.html?item=192410972223&ssPageName=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562
  23. I had the opportunity to play this game recently and it did not live up to the ideas I'd built up in my head about it. It was good, but I didn't feel that it was any better than other similar games of the era such as Stellar Assault on the 32x in terms of graphics or gameplay.
