Okay...Well, it IS possible to use a game gear screen with an N64, but it is not AT ALL a good idea. In order to make a long post short, I think it is safe to tell you that no, You cannot use a GG screen on an N64.

Search around the forums if you want the reasons as to why.

I would recommend a Sony PSone 5" screen, as would almost anyone on the forums. They are easy to use with composite and very cheap for a 5" LCD. They range anywhere from $30-$60 on average.

I would go with a PS1 screen since they are big, cheap, and easy to get. If you must use GG screen I would shearch the web for the inputs on the MOBO. I am not familar with its MOBO sice I have never portablized one. I do not know what inputs it can use so you may be limited if you wanted RGB. Do what you want but think about it and decide what you really want and what would be easier.
