GBA screen?

Post by DBoz »

for my first portable..i want to build the NES portable and i have a GBA that i dont play any more and i was wondering if i could use the screen from it to hook up into the NES. Can I? or is there gonna be like a technical error or some RGB problem? because im a super noob at this. lol :)

The only why to use the GBA/SP is to get a a/v input adapter. The GBA's screen is digital and so wont work with a analoge signal. I dont know where to get such an adapter but there are members that can help you with that, Gamelver would defenitly know.

Graphics on a screen so small wouldnt look the best, if you want to build a next generation system portable (128bit) you should use either a PSOne screen or at the very least a 3" handheld tv screen.
