Damn good idea Chris!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pokemon aside, why don't we use an Atari Lynx instead though? Imagine creating
a cart for the Lynx to offer some sort of artificial intelligence routines for
player Atrai games. Obviously the Atari games would have to be modified. But
can you imagine, one player Indy 500 or 1 player Warlords with 3 other A.I.
players. Wohoooo!!!!!!! The possibilities are endless......
Again, good thinking Chris...
