Re: My first portable
as of the screen, you need a lcd screen with av inputs like a portable dvd player.gaming4souls wrote:hey people well I have been wanting to make a portable for awhile of a dc and i need help with wiring and etc. also would a joytech ps2 slimline screen be sufficient for this portable?

Re: My first portable
copulate!!!!!! just killed the board.........
well looks like this project is dead
. and just to let you know my soldering iron killed some traces and fried a chip when i was soldering some wires to the gd rom port to relocate it and i accidentally burned my hand.
well i might as well start with an easier mod for a gbc then.
