Gamecube Monitor

Post by Toheq » Mon Apr 05, 2004 8:42 pm

I think I'm going to buy a Intec Gamecube Screen for my N64p that I'll be working on. I am stuck between buying a screen without any of the wires, or buying a screen with all the wires. Both are in mint condition and their price difference is about 22 dollars... Can I buy the cables for less than 22 dollars? I don't know which cables I'll need to buy, so if you can answer that, that'd be good too! Thx.

I'd buy the one without the cables. Odds are you won't be using them anyways.

You can just splice something up if it turns out you need it. I would save the money too.

Do you know which cables come with it? I can't really tell, but I can get you some pictures....

Are these all easily buyable at my local Radio Shack?

yeah, but If you're building a portable, you probably won't be using them.

Well... If I wanted to play inside my house, wouldn't I need to use the Adaptor? BTW... How much are these probably? 10 15 dollars for them all?

Yeah, You'd need to use an adapter, they don't cost to much.

Curious... Do you know what voltage the monitor needs? 3.5?

The intec gamecube lcd needs 12V. I just got one and I already have it hooked up to my n64.

I'm getting kind of worried. I have this universal adapter where I can change the voltage settings from 3.5, to 4, etc, up to 12. This morning I didn't know what voltage to put it at so I was switching the power around testing values and there were these bright white lines flickering on the screen. When you told me to put 12 volts in, the screen was black... Did I break it?

There should be a switch on the left or right side, I can't remember. It switches inputs from the nintendo jack to the phono jack. switch that and it should work.

Why would I want to do that? I am inputting from the N64.

no, it might be switched to input from the phono jack, flip the switch to set it to the other input
