can i use that screen?

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

You can use laptop screens, they just have to be able to accept analog rgb signals.

Ya, but only some of the older screens will work. Like pre 1995.
