Currently watching Double Dare and I can't believe I forgot about how terrible the prizes were.

All seen in Episode 1. I can't wait to see how the other episodes go. lol

Cash prize for the losing team? Here's $50. Now split it two ways.

Physical prizes? Here's stuff like a Garfield phone, a curling iron, a vcr, and a typewriter. Oh, and a small tv. Guess you have to get at least one thing you enjoy.

Grand prize? Here's a trip to Disney if you manage to beat all eight obstacles! Well, a hotel in the area. Close enough.

Just hilarious. I swear I remember prizes being better than this. Maybe they improve later on? Guess we'll see.

Do you think it's possible to put old DOS games onto a Pocket?

They'd obviously have to be tweaked a bit, but if Duke Nukem 3D was possible surely games with simpler controls are too?

For example:

Chip's Challenge. It only uses four keys (up, down, left, and right).

Rodent's Revenge. Uses the same four keys and nothing else.

SkiFree. Uses the same four keys + an additional four that could probably just be hotkeyed to the other four face buttons (A, B, etc.).

Edit: Also, I do know that Chip's Challenge has an Atari Lynx version and a homebrew GBA port of that same version, but imo the graphics for that are kind of hideous. It also lacks some quality of life features seen in the DOS version.
