Nope, the Lynx didn't have any 3D hardware, but it did have hardware rotation and scaling and "unlimited" sprites on screen! Wow! It used it to great effect in the conversion of Stun Runner, which was probably the best on any system. Speaking of great arcade conversions, Klax was probably the best on the Lynx...the sound blew me away at the time!
