Atari Lynx prices, all games & how to spot a fake

A first-person 3D breakout variant, cheap as anything, and the platform's strangest promotional variants.

NuFX developed it and Atari published it in 1990 — a depth-based paddle game where the ball comes at you rather than across, which is a smart use of a colour screen. Two-player ComLynx is supported.

Its collector oddity is the pack-in pins: Robo-Squash was distributed in "free pin" and "two free pins" promotional versions, catalogued as separate products with essentially no recorded sales history. One of the 17 Japanese releases.

Cartridge & preservation record

Cartridge ROM capacity 1 megabit (128 KB), measured from the preserved cartridge image.

Cartridge data from the No-Intro preservation database (metadata only — names, sizes and checksums, no game data).

Worth knowing

A paddle game with a connect-four win condition. Atari's own description: "Robo Squash. The ultimate paddle game. The goal is to squash the enemy and line up four globes in a row to win." EGM #18 opened its review by calling it "an odd name for what it is" — the game is closer to a strategy-tinged Breakout than to squash.

Before you buy

One of the cheapest carts on the platform. If a listing mentions promotional pins, that is a genuinely scarce variant with no established price — which cuts both ways.
