Hi,
I recently bought an Atari Lynx, and I'm already a huge Lynx fan. I think it would be a great idea to have an Atari Lynx emulator for the Caanoo. It can be a bit straining to play the Lynx sometimes, especially with games such as Gauntlet: The Third Encounter where you have to hold the Lynx sideways. I did see a Lynx emulator for the GP2X in the openhandhelds.org file archive. There is also one for the Dingoo and the PSP. It would also be a good way to enjoy Lynx games in stereo (if you have the original Lynx like I do.) and the Lynx is a little hard to carry around.

Thanks for reading.

I just bought a Lynx II. I think there is a Lynx emulator out there for the GP2X. I'll try it out on Ginge, then port it myself if I can find the source code. It would be great if someone could help me find the source code...

Yeah, the GP2X one by Tuskenraider was great. I remember looking for the source a while back with no luck. Perhaps someone could continue skeezix's Wiz port of Handy, although it sounds like it might need a bit of work.

I just grabbed a copy of the source code for handy sdl, which I'll look at later, and skeezix said he might post up his source code later...

I've just tried to compile handysdl from the PC source code, but I'm having trouble since it uses gl intead of gles in addition to SDL (which I have no problem with) and I need to look for an ARM version of one of the libraries.

skeezix's Wiz source might be an easier starting point.

That might have been what BAFelton was trying to link to, unless I missed something :)
