We are moving all Atari Lynx related content over to Atari Lynx Vault and all our shop content over to K-Retro Gaming. Please update your bookmarks!
As a result of this change, the following will no longer be available: Online Lynx Emulator, Collection Tracker, Game Ratings, News. If you are interested in contributing content to Atari Lynx Vault, we are seeking editors and maintainers.
Why is this happening? First - the Atari Gamer branding is changing to K-Retro Gaming to allow us to expand to providing games, replacement parts, and mod services to other game consoles. And second - The content management system running Atari Gamer is out of date and Google AppEngine (where the website runs) will no longer allow it to run after the 30th January 2024, so in order to preserve all content we switched to a new and modern content management system and chose a website domain that better suits the subject matter. Since we are operating this website in our spare time, on top of full time family and job committments, some features had to be dropped.
During the Lynx Challenge (Defi Lynx) lapel pin promotion there were two lots of coffret / display case boxes manufactured. Both contained a number of lapel pins, never the complete set however. There was a set of 100 numbered boxes and another set of 250.
These coffrets were made out of wood and had felt/sponge padding on the inside. Each box had 'DEFI LYNX Atari' painted on the top cover in gold coloured paint. The rear of the box had its copy number printed in black in the bottom left corner.
Both variants included two of the 'Atari Lynx' pins and a selection of game pins.
