The screen is digital, and will only work with other game gears. Even then, there are 2 different types (Majesco and Sega) and they may not be intercompatible.

Yeah but didnt Cennar use a Nomad screen or something else?
I tried to use a GameGear screen (the GG is about $10 here) and being stupid I think I blew about half the fuses out (dont drink sake then try to work on a screen, please).
Anyway, too hard, dont do it, save up money for a PSone LCD screen. Ebay baby.

My answer is yes...but only with a gamegear tv tuner and then you would need to throw a gamegear, the tv tuner and whatever other system you want to portabalize into a case. So unless your crazy you can't do it.

I remember back when I was about 14 I had a super nintendo hooked into a gamegear through a custom RF -> mini jack connection. That way we could have a Street Fighter 2 tournament outside my friends house since he wasn't alowed to have more than 1 other person in at a time.
