    With those old 1980's portable games with vacuum fluorescent displays, the constant screen flicker/refreshing was not uncommon. That Scramble game and a number of other Tomy handhelds got released in the USA as well - some of them, like Scramble and Tron, are amazingly good games considering the primitive hardware.

    Pulse Missile should show red with or without batteries. The screen lit up and you had to maneuver around objects if memory serves. The SC1000-II had joysticks you could screw into the middle of the controllers for a couple of dollars each.

    When the GameBoy was released and during development, color LCD displays were nothing new.
    Nintendo could have also installed a color display, but Nintendo wanted a cost-effective device that had a long battery life and was also cheap to produce.
    This was also reflected in the selling price compared to all the other handhelds with color displays

    That PCEngineGT shouldn't need time to warm up, it's an instant-on by design type of device. It VERY likely needs a Capacitor replacement job something fierce. Those old caps are likely already leaking and doing damage, so for the sake of preserving that system, please do this soon! It's not difficult, kits can be found for it easily and you can make a video about it!

    The "PC" isn't a PC, it's a PC9821. Due to character limitations IBM style computers were developed separately from western PC's, meaning it's a different standard, plays different games, runs different software, uses different chips, different Audio hardware.

TurboGrafx 16 was I think technically superior to peer game consoles of the time, but did not catch on massively due to poor marketing and less compelling games.
