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.

What do you mean exactly? I suppose you could use that to replace a broken psone lcd, but you still need the lcd controller for it to work...

could I build a controller circuit?
I was jus wondering cause this would be cheaper than both a pocket tv and a psone complete lcd.

It would work if the broken screens problem was the screen. It would not work if the psone screens problem was in the controller board.

there seem to be plenty of people who have broken various psOne screens so you could ask nicly for their controller boards
