I recently picked up a catalog or more like a mini Magazin since it has a $3.50 price tag on the cover for the Atari Lynx with a Batman Cover.

There is about 4 pages of upcoming games with screen shots at the end with a few of them I know very little about. Does anyone know if any of these games have been released as either roms or custom carts.

-Full Court Press
-Blood & Guts Hockey
-Heavy Weight Contender
-World Class Soccer
-Battlezone 2000
-Cabal
-Rolling Thunder
-Ninja Nerd

wow it makes you wonder why they would need another hockey and soccer and basketball

a boxing would have been neat

battlezone 2000 was the hidden game its like they reversed it instead of making the origional battlezone the easteregg they figured hell lets hide all our work and give them the arcade version


imagine if sega genesis pitfall the myan adventure autobooted to the 2600 version

there would have been riots people burning sonic effigies smashing their controllers under steam rollers

You should check Atari User magazine....it has a series of articles on plenty of unreleased games for the Lynx. :)

If I'm not mistaken, BasketBrawl was the only basketball game released on Lynx. And it was a playground basketball game that included fighting with weapons, and wasn't that good of a game anyway. So I think the Lynx could have used a more serious basketball game. It's a shame Full Court Press was never finished and released, because it was something I would have been interested in.
