Another screen alternative

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.

Another screen alternative

Post by Auken »

It seems according to this hack, these screens take RGB just like the PSOne screen, is it any good for portables? (And if not, perhaps an integrated screen in a SuperGun... Hehe...)

any screen that can take in composite video signals is good for portables.

Isn't that the Voyager screen? The circuit board is rather large so I dunno if you could use it in any portable.

You could use it in a portable, but it would just have to be an overlarged one.

:p Or maybe a portable with a flip screen.

A large portable? Like an actual-circuitry NES or a Neo*Geo? XP

I think I'm going to get one of these and make it an integrated screen on my JAMMA+ Test Rig...
