Anyone have a list of the game sizes for all of the Lynx games?
What size is Raiden? Aren't most of the sizes 128k?

In general either 128K or 256K with a handful at 512K. Raiden is 256K. There may be a full list in the Lynx FAQ.

Pretty sure that Pit-Fighter is 512k as I remember Atari showing off that it was 4 meg, using the Sega tactic of megabits (128k) as opposed to megabytes (1024k)

True. JC Tennis, Ninja gaiden III, Pit fighter, EOTB, Alpine Games are all 512k titles.Perhaps there are even more.

Hi Karri, or anyone else who could answer. When you listed EOTB as a 512 game, what was the game you were referring too? Did you mean shadow of the beast? Very much appreciated.

Also, I heard that Dracula The Undead was a 512 K game as well? Were most games around 2 meg?

And perhaps Rampart was 512? I thought I heard it once...As a Lynx anorak, and a strong enthusiast of the Lynx, I really like to know these kinds of things.

I think EOTB is Eye of the Beholder, which only escaped Atari as a prototype but has been put onto real cartridges since.

That explains it. I thought perhaps the "E" was a misprint. Thanks!
