Turn your GBA into a TV monitor

The reason i post this here is because I think this would be wonderful for the DS (given it's higher resolution and it's more normal aspect ratio).

As is though, i'm really interest in it.

Using the SP/DS you'd get a colourfull bright screen to watch video feed off any device, and you should have hours of video (on one charge) in your pocket.

Since it doesn't need to pluged into a power source (like a standard monitor) it's one less wire to work with when on site.

Its looks cool...but it really isnt using the portable aspect of system.

I'd argue it is...
You could use it in the car with any video game system you want.
Not to mention the Game Cube has battery pack you can get, but I imagine it being great for filming on site.

It's nice to have a monitor (in adition to the LCD screen on the camera) and it lets people working beside you get an idea what your filming, but they can be big/costly.
This is cheap, replacable and has multiple purposes.

But your right, becasue you do need another device to use it, (as it doesn't have a built in tv tuner) it isn't that portable.

Throw in a TV tuner and I'd buy it, if it's not too expensive.

Yeah,
That would be cool.

You could use it for any video game console (including those standalone plug and play ones) not to mention DVD's, VCR's and satalite and cable boxes (assuming they have RCA plugs).

one problem the screen is abit small for console games is it not?

Not really, well if your just dying to go portable with your gamecube then this would be a good solution...
