The LED mod is in Ben's book, which you better buy, and you can find the mod
here .
I just read that the old PS2 draws about 1.7A, and the screen draws about 350mA. You will need a 7808 for the screen to work with 12V. Total draw will be about 2.1A.
For GBA screen, read
this .

So 1.9A+350mA=2.25A so Im gonna need a 12v~(at least)4500mA battery...

Yes, a battery with those specifications will power your system for about 2 hours.

Unless you can get your PS2 to run on less than 12V, you need a 12V battery, or you will have to make an AC convertor and step-up transformer. Also, if you are thinking of a standard 9V battery, that is not going to work, because I have never seen one over 1Ah.
