Handy

Handy is one of the earliest Atari Lynx emulators. It is no longer in active development, and its last release was in 2007.

Despite that, Handy is a very capable emulator that handles the vast majority of the Lynx’s features.

Its last few versions focused mainly on fixing bugs and improving compatibility.

There are few complaints about its emulation, and its code lives on in other projects, including Mednafen’s Lynx emulation and the Handy core for RetroArch.

Handy also includes capable debugging tools, which makes it useful for homebrew development.

Note that Handy needs the Atari Lynx BIOS file to run commercial games.
