Handy PSP is an emulator of Atari Lynx, an 8/16-bit handheld game console that was released by Atari Corporation in September 1989.

This is a port of the Handy emulator to the Sony PlayStation Portable platform, written in C and C++ and uses GU (Graphical Utility toolkit) for rendering by Akop Karapetyan (aka Uberjack).

Features

• Load rom from ZIP files.
• Custom key mappings.
• Screen size adjustment.
• CPU clock frequency adjustment.
• Show FPS.
• Screenshots.
• Save states.
• Turbo mode.
• Other miscellaneous options.

Installation

Note: The emulator requires an authentic BIOS image file to run. The file should be named lynxboot.img.
