About Atari Lynx
Atari's Lynx (1989) was the first handheld console with a color backlit screen, technically ahead of the Game Boy in several respects, but it launched at a higher price with worse battery life and lost the handheld war commercially. Lower overall sales mean smaller print runs across its library, making complete Lynx games a moderately scarce niche within retro handheld collecting.
Gamevaro tracks Gauntlet: The Third Encounter for Atari Lynx with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Gauntlet: The Third Encounter to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This LYNX release dates back to 1990.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
