			theres a similar screen for the psone actually and on the screen question, it really depends on how much time you spend playing games in the car, and if you would play anything besides the cube in the car hardly worth spending loads of cash on a screen that would get used only a few times (unless you can afford to of course)

		Gallstaff		Feb 22, 2002
			yeah but i could use my cube and my xbox and my ps2 and dcast.

		megametalgreymon		Feb 24, 2002
			if you think you would use it then yes it really depends on how much time you spend in your car though, and how much of that time you would be playing games (assuming your not going to try to play and drive anyway

I know... i didn't say they did. Portible 5 in. car tv's have been out for a while now... what i am asking is should i pay less money to be able to play just my camecube games in the car or pay double the price to be able to play all my systems and watch videos in the car?

um ya you would want the multyiple platform screen but.....

THERE IS NO SUCH THING

			Just because their isn't one yet doesn't mean their won't be some day in the future. Till then though, GBA should be plenty to tide people over durring long trips, figuring they have enough good games to keep them occupid that is.

		SEGA DAVID		Feb 27, 2002
			yeah i have gba its good and there problaby will be some sort of screen for multistuff in the future but gallstuff was talking about it like its already out

		Ragnorokk		Mar 14, 2002
			i don't mean to sound rude, but there's quite definitely a multi platform screen. Lik-ssang sells it. I believe it's called fireant or some such nonssensicle name. Haven't looked into it TOO much, though as it's 2-300 bucks

			from what I understand, the portable screen for the GC will work for the DC. There's just no way to conveniently mount it on a DC. (Edited by falstaff at 6:38 pm on Mar. 14, 2002)

		Gallstaff		Mar 15, 2002
			yes. That's what i mean. Ok, the game cube monitor is FOR the game cube but will work on any system with rgb outputs. Oh and if you did want to make a portible dreamcast, you should talk to these guys > http://www.smilebit.com/eng/game/typing_im...ping_...

			hehehe i like typing of the dead that;s one #### of a game

		Gallstaff		Mar 16, 2002
			yeah but... what the #### man... they have a friggen dreamcast back pack. For the love of god, they could just wack the crap out of them #### zombies with the key board

		SEGA DAVID		Mar 19, 2002
			WHAT???? YOU CAN USE THE GC SCREEN ON A DC?!?!??!!! CAN SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE ME SOME MORE INFO?!???

			This is no kind of solution to the portable dc cd player/skipping problem but I'll throw it in the ring anyways. DC games are huge roms right? So no CD is technically necessary for you to play. If someone made a flash card capable of holding that much data then you could play it off a cart. Only trouble is it'd take you about three days to put a different game on it, but it would be possible. If totally impractical.

		megametalgreymon		Mar 31, 2002
			and it would be the size of a small tv it would need to hold 1gb of data for dc, i think even n64 carts are 64mb at most (i could be wrong there though) it would also be far too expensive

		Ratamahatta		Mar 31, 2002
			It can be done although expensive. Currently i'm working on a portable snes, cuz i really wanna play chrono trigger or ff3 on the go.
