Those would be great. I dug mine out again recently and am still impressed after all these years. Been playing crystal mines II the last 2 evenings.

RASTAN would be a perfect release for LYNX.

And im dreaming about the masses of developers who write code for all these projects.....

[darkfalzx]

* MegaMan 1-6
* Phantasy Star
* Castlevania (especially 2)
* Act Fencer (I know - that's pretty obscure: )
* Ghoul'n'Ghosts/Ghost'n'Goblins
* Gunstar Heroes (Now, wouldn't THAT be awesome!)
* R-Type
* Chrono Trigger (yeah, dream on)
* Puyo Puyo
* Metroid (or better yet - Super Metroid!)

Hey!
I'd LOVE there to be a Metroid clone on Lynx! Something with as much character, polish, depth and phenomenal art direction would be awesome on a system where even the best games barely raise past the quality mark of middle-of-the-road indie project.

Someone wants to code one?

...I'll provide the art: )

[PFG 9000]

Slime World has some of the Metroid atmosphere and visuals, though the actual gameplay is pretty different. It would be interesting to see a Slime World hack with Metroid gameplay...although it might be tough to incorporate new powerups. The jetpack and mega bombs could probably be altered easily to full-time abilities (instead of one-time use items). Maybe some boots that make you immune to sticky slime and some grippers that let you scale slippery walls, or a suit that reduces damage from slime pools...

Final Blow

but the oldest Frank Bruno's Boxing could run better on Lynx

[Clint Thompson]

Lynx really had/(has) so much potential for a lot of the titles mentioned which seriously should have found it's way onto the system but sadly never did.

[madhatter667]

Doom, R-Type, and Moon Patrol I think are great suggestions. I really like the idea of a Wolfenstein 3D port..that would be fun.
Anything along the lines of an RPG would be neat, maybe a Dragon Warrior port, or a spinoff. Sorry, I use my handhelds at work for entertainment, having a handful of games I can soak a couple hours into on a sitting is my goal!
Ghouls and Ghosts was another great suggestion. Wonder Boy/Adventure Island. Phantasy Star or Maybe Y's would be really cool. Perhaps a real solid Defender port would be good.... I still love Defender.

[Chefsessel]

I'd go with Street Fighter II - Capcom did a good job porting it to the old crappy b/w Game Boy, just think what it could look like on the Lynx! Moreover the Lynx definately lacks a good 2D Beat'em'up... (just like a good RPG - Distant Lands, where are you?)

[Lynxman]

Hey Guys! Stop dreaming, start coding!

OK, Krakout and ...

Until I learned that EGM was doing an April Fools
trick reporting SFII on the Lynx, I was so excited.

Coming along excellently; Slowly, but surely.

As well as Double Dragon, I know. I've already played them on the Lynx. Anyway, I think these 2 games could be better than they already are on the Lynx, they should be re-converted.

Every classic console needs a port of Mr. Do!, and I'd just love to see a port on the Lynx. Still...

Would be a completely awesome title for the Lynx.

Have you consider releasing some new information about the gameplay? New screen shots? Anything?
