The ebay info says it's a video game with carts to play on the built-in screen or project onto the wall. Haven't found any more info yet, but looking at the technology it looks early 80 - mid 80s.

The question is, is it a handheld or a table top?

Detachable control panel classifies it as a tabletop to me.

Yeah, never heard of this one either... Probably a clone of the other projection systems though, I would guess, though I'm not sure I'd bet money on it, as it is SHAPED different from those.

It doesn't look programmable, it looks like there's an LCD screen on the cartridge that gets a light projected up through it onto a plastic sheet that becomes the 'screen'. There have been devices like this in the past, although I'm not sure if this is the earliest version of the tech or not.

I reckon it's like the Microvision carts

Looks like an '80s German R-Zone. Neat.

It is the Ludotronic ProScreen which was released as the Pro-Mo in Germany - released in the early 80's.

Wow, great you have more info perhaps? Like how many carts the system had?

Ok it's in the 'handheld museum', but not much info either:

All I know of for the Pro Screen was Alerte Rouge, which was the pack-in.
