No thats the Nomad, to our knowlege the only way to get video into the Game Gear is to use the TV turner.vb_master wrote:You can use a Game Gear screen with RGB right, or composite with a chroma decoder, right?

There is also an RGB mod for the GameCube, you can find it here (a good guide, but sounds weird as it has been translated from Japanese) or here.
If anyone cares, there is a S/PDIF mod (add a TOSLINK optical or Coaxial digital audio output) that can be done at the same time as the RGB/VGA mod by adding 4 extra wires to the shield and building a box instead of just attaching a VGA connector. That mod can be found here and at the second page listed above.
Edit: the Ground wire is already in the cable

The signal is supposedly very strong because the mod is equivelant to what TinkerTool does to Mac OS X. (If you're not a Mac person, TinkerTool is a program that gives a GUI to to features of the system (like a neat minimization effect) that you would normally have to access the BSD Unix base to use.) This RGB output was meant to be built in, but Nintendo probably thought it would be underused like the Component Video output.
Edit: You have to build a sync convertor to use GameCube RGB with the PSOne screen or anything else that needs Csync.
