Another great video! Looking forward to seeing the video capture using McWill's excellent VGA out. This will really set your videos apart as most others either try to film the screen or use emulation.

 

Also, it would be great to get a drink recipe episode. The drinks of the Lynx Lounge! :)

The capture is working great, I've already captured about 6 games so far and it looks and sounds amazing - love that Lynx sound.  

I will post the homemade Kalula recipe a little later. Drinks of the Jag Bar and Lynx Lounge, classic!!

Battlemorph was amazing. I don't understand the guest's trashing Battlemorph.

 

I always liked Checkered Flag on Lynx, it was a nice way of doing Pole Position II on the Lynx and not surprised there was a Checkered Flag Lynx bundle released at one point.

He's a HUGE Star Fox fan… So when I pitched him the game I told him it was like Star Fox but you weren't on rails.  Obviously he was thinking the game was Star Fox and was probably let down.  Personally I like Battlemorph, and I like Star Fox, two different games but I like qualities in both.

 

I really like the way CF plays on the Lynx, I also had Super Monaco gp on Game Gear and it wasn't as fun or in depth as CF.

It is sad when I know the ol' Lynx will win the CF comparison hands down without even watching your vid yet. Unless you are just looking at still shots, which with Jaguar CF, you almost are...

 

I need that VGA out LCD screen upgrade. But my Lynx turns on, but won't show anything on screen, but at the same time there's no sound or any indication it's only the screen, so unfortunately I may just have to get another Lynx. Because I don't know that the upgrade would fix my problems. I was going to order a new screen from Best Electronics, and if that wasn't the problem, then start trouble shooting it more. But after seeing this upgrade, I don't want to just replace the screen with the same old screen! A conundrum for me...

Your lynx problems sound like cap problems, you might have bad caps and I believe there is a cap kit that can get you back in action.  I know ebay has a few options for the Game Gear so I would think that a lynx one is out there too.

Awesome advice about getting the launch titles with the flat lip. Lynx launch titles were stellar. Way ahead of its time, so far ahead of anything Nintendo was doing.

 

ElectroCop was one of my first Lynx games too. It has that awesome music and bright beautiful pixelated robot world that defined the Lynx. I always had a theory that ElectroCop existed within the Chip's Challenge universe and was how Chip saw himself, as this radical techno-hero that saves the world.  :electrocop:

 

Great episode as always BTB, I seriously, seriously love this show. So good what you are doing.
