Hi,
I apologize if a similar question is posted already,
Will this screen work for My GBZ:
https://abra-electronics.com/robotics-e ... 20480.html

I mean, does it have the proper connections?
I don't seem to find an affordable replacement here in Canada... this screen doesn't mention Composite, but can it be connected somehow? is the fact that it is a touchscreen a problem?
Thanks!

Hey, welcome. :)

Yep, this has been asked before. Here is a previous thread: http://sudomod.com/forum/viewtopic.php? ... reen#p3134

I'd add though that if you do go that route, the Waveshare is not nearly as easy to get working as the Adafruit ones, in my experience.

thanks for the quick response!

screen is currently all I'm missing (I have like 4-5 copies of every other component!).
I guess I'll keep looking around...
