You can't, not without SERIOUS modification.

It is cheaper just to get a PSOne screen.
Warranty-Voiding fun!

Actually, the TV tuner add-on lets you use external video sources. But that would add bulk and take more power.

I suggest either the PSone screen, or an Intec/Hip Gear game controller screen. Both are inexpensive and easy to modify.

well i wanted to integrate a radica genisis into the game gear (add buttons and all) and a cart slot in the bottom. Can i just have the TV tuner in with the A/V cables from the Radica going to it to use the genis on the screen? And then when i'd play Game Gear, just take out the tuner?
