I finally found another! Until today, I have never encountered anyone else who owned an Atari Lynx. It was my first video game system, which I saved up for and bought myself. It was fantastic, and I loved it, until it broke. I mailed it off for repair. After many weeks, it came back fixed, and I was again thrilled. Then it broke again, and I did not mail it out a second time.

I might have the instruction book!
I definitely have my old lynx. And I think my brothers too.
I wonder if it works...
Edit: and just to mention a few games I own and enjoyed...
- Turbo sub
- Pit fighter (looked amazing at the time, too)
There is another with a ton of minigame puzzles and in trying to remember what it was called... I need to dig mine out tomorrow.
I had the gen 1, my brother got the gen 2, I got both when he wasn't as into it.
I just rebuilt mine a week ago, hadn't played it in 20+ years, had to replace the key pad rubber, some power bits (I decided to do a clean power mod) and the screen was cracked so I did a ISP screen mod. Looks awsome now and I'm already at level 47 on chips challenge, happaly writing down the codes in my notebook just like as a kid.
