(Note: OPs first post doesn't work for me) Wow. I remember that. I never owned one, my sitters kids owned one.
I don't remember too much about it. From what I can recall it used a roll of printed plastic in lieu of a video screen. Those kinds of games were huge back before Tiger Electronics and their fixed LCD screens flooded the market. I think everyone had one type of game or another like that.
In the second link I don't recall it being backlit, which might be why I never played it. The bulb might've been busted.
Checked out
http://www.inthe80s.com/ and I didn't see it there. Maybe it's older than the 80's?
