Devil Hunter Yohko is an avid video gamer

Retro gaming spotted in a classic anime! From Devil Hunter Yohko episode 2, here we see that Yohko is an avid gamer from the early ‘90s. You can spot an NEC PC Engine Turbo Duo-R, Sega Megadrive, Nintendo Super Famicom, a Sega Game Gear, and even an Atari Lynx! Oh yeah, and there’s some manga there too.

My Atari Lynx crap

Here’s my Lynx crap. Behold the fancy carry case! I have the type 2 Lynx (the smaller one). I bought a set that came with the console, carry case, screen shield, and several games from an online store called Video Game Liquidators in 1997. Here’s my list of games:

Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure
Chip’s Challenge
Gates of Zendocon
Gauntlet: The Third Encounter
Ishido: The Way of the Stones
Joust
Klax
Qix
Rampart
Roadblasters
Robo Squash
Rygar
Shanghai
S.T.U.N. Runner
Todd’s Adventure in Slime World
Xenophobe
Xybots
Zarlor Mercenary

I had hoped to visit Japan the summer of ’97 with the World Youth Visit Exchange Association (WYVEA), but the trip was cancelled. I had saved up enough money to go, but in the end I couldn’t go. (I went to Japan on my own the following year and made my own arrangements.) So, that summer I bought myself a Lynx and a decent VCR.
