Hey, I just need to know if a Genesis 1 can be connected to a screen from a Gameboy Advance.

This is my controller:

I need a suggestion for a cheep, non-widescreen screen, and a point in the right direction to instructions to do this.

Thanks for the help!

You can connect the GBA to the Genesis to use as a screen but you'd have to keep the entire GBA, and the part you need to do it costs more than a pocket tv or one of those dealextreme screens, so there is really no point in doing it anymore.

Well, I've got access to a screen now, I just need to know where I could find instructions.
And how should I clean the controller ports?

The best screen is the psone screen.
Why would you need to clean the controller ports? You're going to desolder them right off right?
