Atari Lynx

The Atari Lynx, released in 1989, was the first handheld gaming console to feature a full-color backlit LCD screen. Its unique design allowed for multiplayer gaming with up to six players using a comlynx cable, making it the go-to console for on-the-go gaming. The Lynx's library of games included classic titles like California Games, Blue Lightning, and Rampage. Interestingly, the Lynx was the first console to use a tilt sensor for game control, pre-dating the Nintendo Wii's motion control by over a decade. Despite its innovative features, the Lynx ultimately struggled to compete with the dominant Game Boy and was discontinued in 1995. Today, the Lynx is a beloved collector's item for retro gaming enthusiasts.
