I also just got my first Lynx a few weeks ago. Mine is a model 2.

However I ordered Tomb Raider off Amazon for about $6 so I'm looking foward to when that gets here.
Oh man, that game has not aged too well at all.
Don't let it turn you off from the rest of the console!
This X1000
I absolutely love PS1 games, but I really had a rough time with Tomb Raider. There's some really cool ideas in it, but the controls are seriously horrendous. I'd recommend Crash Bandicoot 2 to get you on the right track enjoying the Playstation.
Even though this should go in the missed deals thread, I saw Drill Dozer for the Gba sealed for 2.49$. My younger self thought that Drill Dozer looked like a stupid game. I didnt buy it. Also, should I buy Drill Dozer cib for 11?

It's worth it. You used to be able to find it sealed for $5 all over the place, but I'd say it's still worth getting for $10.

It's not a bad little game at all.
I bought it sealed for $3 at a yard sale. lol
It used to be $3 on amazon, as well. Definitely a neat title.

Nice, I've never actually held a model 2. I had a lynx when I was younger, but got rid of it. It's probably one of the things I sold so I could buy a dreamcast when that came out. Glad to have one again.
Need FreeMCboot? I'll install it on your PS2 Memory Card for free if you cover postage both ways.
Consoles: I have too much stuff
Arcade: No seriously, I have too much stuff. Someone grab a shovel and dig me out of my basement.
Just wanted to share a recent find I had yesterday...not super cool, but was excited none the less. Picked up a N64 Funtastic system complete in box with manuals for $24.99. I frequent a used CD/DVD store near my house, they also sell old video games. They have a set price from N64 consoles, doesn't matter if it is in the box or not...they only charge $24.99. I saw this one sitting on the floor behind the counter and asked about it, it had just arrived. They seem to have no idea that boxed games and systems are worth double or triple what they sell them for...they sell boxed games for the "cart only" price...so I have found tons of great games complete this way.
Mine is a model 2.
