gilsaluki Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Having a tab bit more time these days (Thanks Virus), I decided to take stock of my Lynx collection. I thought I owned all the officially licensed titles. I did, but came up short in my inventory. Rygar & Toki. I swear I owned them as they had a YES check mark in my Excel spreadsheet. Oh well, at least I didn't loose any rare titles. Ordered replacements. Time to inventory your stock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 No, because I've known for years that I don't have European Soccer Challenge, but am still too lazy to pick up a copy. I carelessly search for it on eBay every few months, but keep finding exorbitant prices and/or battered boxes for a title that I'll never play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never opened it. I read somewhere were it was a bad game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Sometimes I take out World Class Fussball, turn the cart over in my hands, and then put it away again. That's the closest I think I'm going to get to soccer/footie on the Lynx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilsaluki Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 Got W.C. Fussball/Soccer as well. Never played it either. I do play NFL Football a lot. I know it's an American thing, but I like. It got some stinky reviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every couple of year, I give it a try... and well no it's as bad as the last time. The worst game on the lynx imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilsaluki Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 Now I am missing Robo-Squash. WFH? Missing a total of three of the games I thought I had. Thank goodness I have not lost an expensive cart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm currently looking at a boxed copy from the UK, but I think I'll just let this one come to me in time. I'd much rather spend my gaming dollars on titles worthy of them, like the upcoming A Bug's Trip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilsaluki Posted October 3, 2020 Author Share Posted October 3, 2020 I thought I had all original licensed carts. My inventory revealed I was missing Rygar (love that game), Robo-Squash, and Toki. I thought I was careless in the past and lost them. I have all my boxes and manuals. I inventoried my manuals, I did not have those 3 titles' manuals indicating that I never really owned them in the first place. Last place to verify that was the attic where all my boxes are neatly stored. Nope, not there. Apparently, I never owned those titles. Got them on order now. Toki looks good, Robo-Squash just sounds weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Toki is a great game and an underrated one on the Lynx. Robo-squash is fine, but it's just a ball-and-paddle game with a 3D perspective. It would probably be played more if there weren't so many other choices for good playtime on the Lynx.

LordKraken Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Toki imo is the best platformer on the lynx and probably a top 10 for platformer on handheld consoles (after all the mario and the mickey ones though) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilsaluki Posted October 15, 2020 Author Share Posted October 15, 2020 Now I am 100 percent (original carts). Kinda like Robo-squash. It it hard for me to play Pong-type games with a D-Pad. Rygar rocks, can't much further than the 3rd tunnel. Those flying dragon things get me every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
