Lynx emulator works on PSP Slim

There is a Lynx emulator working on PSP Slim, I think most people have over looked the old Atari Lynx hand-held. I for one haven’t. It was my first hand-held console. Back in 1989..The good old days. Yes its a while back and back then in 1989 the lynx was the most powerful hand-held out at the time, however not the most popular. It was the first hand held system to have a colour display and 3d graphics. The first gaming console with hardware support for zooming/distortion of sprites, allowing fast pseudo-3D games with unrivaled quality at the time and a capacity for drawing filled polygons with limited CPU intervention. So it was quite ahead of its time.

Anyway this does run on the PSP Slim 3.xx M33 and I think that nobody has bothered to check if it could. PLynx runs just fine, but the versions for Fw 1.00. PLynx development seems to have come to a holt at the moment. Which is a shame, I hope they continue. Their emulator is far from perfect, but only really lacking some sound quality. Plus the odd minor glitch now and then. But its pretty good as you can see from the video I took below of the emulator running on my PSP Slim 3.71 M33.

All credit due to the PLynx crew who made this great Emulator. I hope there’s plans to release an update.
