So this is a Virtual Boy dispaly.
 
 

 
As you can see. It's not a display at all. Its a row of LEDs that flicker and point to mirrors that oscillate very quickly to actually produce a picture.
 
Where the ribbon cable meets the backside of the circuit board, the adhesive can get weak and it starts to fail. It's fixed similar to how to fix a Gameboy with vertical lines. It has to be heated and I press down on the top side squeezing it on a hard surface while it cools. It doesn't work 100% of the time but it does work more often than it doesnt.

VERY cool!   

The label's even in nice shape!

That's a phenomenal find KidA! I think that's the nicest looking Q*bert's Qubes I've seen in the wild!

A couple of ya know because I brought it up in a chat on tuesday. So recently I won $140 in a survivor football pool so I bought some games with my winnings. Got both ps4 Atari Flashback games, a physical copy of geometry wars 3 for ps4 and a few other nonsense items.
 
So a buddy of mine owns a retro game shop and we hold a Buy Sell Trade event every last Sunday of the month. We call it "Retro Respect". About 30 or so vendors all come down and we all hang out and have a great time and quite a few others drop by as well as its open to the public.
 
So anyways this guy that I talk to knows I like Atari stuff and he sold this to me for $25....
 

 
So happy to have this game in the collection!
