Portable 64

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.

They're all made in Hong Kong, but from time to time I think there are sellers in the US (a little more expensive though).

$20 shipped (including shipping) is about as cheap as you can get.

Edit: Pagebreak!

Most of the ones from Hong Kong have free shipping.

Try to save up a few more dollars and go for something like Hailrazer posted. It'll make things exponentially easier than trying to find a workaround for something like a DVD player or some other screen not made specifically for composite video input. You'll be glad you did! You'll just have to wait about two weeks to receive it though.

Alright, that sounds good. Thanks
