Zenith screens - Xbox PS2 Gamecube - Identical?

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.

Zenith screens - Xbox PS2 Gamecube - Identical?

Post by Neildo_64 »

I was just wondering if all the Zenith 5" screens for the different systems were all the same. I would assume they are (wouldn't know why they would be different) but I figured I'd ask to see if anyone knows for sure. Are there any differences at all besides the mounting bracket?

I think the only difference is connector which connects screen with console.

Yeah, in the end, it's the cable which connects the screen to the console; a cable that is removable and interchangable. There might be some very minor differences in how it attaches to the console as well, but I know the xBox version has two 'arms' loaded on springs. They pull out, and hug the top of the console.

Any PS2/Gamecube Zenith screen owners care to comment on the console attachment method, just as a sidenote?

I've had all three, and the actual screen part of each is the exact same.
