... Handy is a piece of (FREE) software that makes your computer think it is an Atari Lynx. In essence it provides a software version of the original hardware. Then you download copies of the original cartridges (since plugging Lynx cartridges directly into a PC would be difficult to say the least) and you are away - playing the game exactly as would appear on the original. Why this this emulator called Handy you may ask - well originally the Lynx was created by a company called Epyx and called it The Handy. Atari bought ...more
