Hey guys. I thought you might find <a href="http://pages.prodigy.net/tan.ax/" target="_blank">this</a> interesting. On it you will find my latest Creation, a Sony LCD attachment to the Game Boy Advance featuring RGB quality picture, increased picture size(1.5X), and stereo sound.

Here's photo of it running a homebrew Bust a Move.

Hmm not very portable anymore but super cool. Im thinking of getting a T.V. de Advanced for a GBA. Seen how is the GBA T.V. adapter and which one did you have. I want one but am waiting on some feedback. Does it look nice on a T.V.?

It's still portable. You can use it in the car with a 9V adapter. For this project I used the Innovation one which is the same circuitry-wise as the hk one.

Check my site again as I posted some impressions on TV vs LCD, and the ideas and design issues behind the project.

i haven't check your site now,but how long has it take tills it's done !

It is very stable at this point. It just needs some cosmetic adjustments and it is done. It is also very comfortable to hold, and think the images speak for themselves.

I cannot mass produce them because they are too complex and expensive to make. It took me over 4 weeks and countless burns on my hands to do it. It is very sturdy and doesn't break easily... then again I haven't tried to break it yet.

Its just going to remain in my artistic/engineering portfolio. ;) Then it will probably become a family heirloom. :D

I have one of those screens and it very high quality. Also, the hinge is VERY sturdy, not fragile at all.

Kim: the white AGB and the Sony Monitor are different colors, it wouldn't look too good.

Nice feat of engineering!
