I have a Noritake Itron display with a 256x128 resolution, which is probably the biggest VFD that's widely available. High voltage is generated by an onboard supply, and you drive it with an 8 bit microprocessor interface, so it's just about a drop-in replacement for a typical small LCD module. Pretty easy to use in hobby projects.

I wasn't thinking in terms of pixels, more like the "game and watch" or tiger LCD games of the 80s, but with a VFD. Thanks for the info (and everyone else!)
