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.

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

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.

PC Game Engine, as I recall, was based on or the same as TurboGrafx 16 console units. Which I had. And loved. That card is called the HU-Card, again as I recall. 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.

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. Really cool hardware without the build-in CRT

So I'm going to leave a comment here: that PC was not a normal PC but a NEC PC-9821. It can run an entire series of vintage PC-98 games. The CRT clearly needs some repair on it given it's missing colors, but when fixed you can run some really cool PC-98 games (namely Touhou, but many others as well). It's a fun rabbit hole to go down, but please buy a desktop model instead. There's even a PC-FX card to allow you to run PC-FX games on it.
