Mega Joy P

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.

Look around the site a little more and see if that solves your problem. If not come back with the specs of the tv you plan to use.
P.S. Why not just join?

I'm not sure what kind of signal that would take and I'm pretty sure you would need the original board to use it. Plus I don't recommend using an ngage screen as they have screwy dimensions.

Ngage screen is most likely a digital one so its about as useful as a rock. You'll need something that will take an anologe siganal, go to doomportables.org, under systems and then screens. We have a nice list there for you to pick from.

With that budget I'd say get a hip pad lcd. Works fine with some modding, and can run off of the same voltage as the mega joy

Being english has nothing to do with what he said. He was refering to a specific screen, and if you dont learn to mod you never will if you dont try...

Have you soldered before?

Go to your local gaming store and look for a product thats called the Hig Gear Screen. It will be (you'll have to translate) about $30 USD. To mod, just open the controler case, cut the wires that go to the screen. Read the two thread the Lady Ana posted in as they pertain to getting it to work.
