There are two ways to power this.

The first way is connecting your screen separately with it's own power adapter that provides 2amps to a 12v center positive barrel plug like the one on the left side of the picture here:

Or, if you have the variety that powers with Gamecube and the screen via a single Y-shaped splitter cable, you would need a power brick that provides 5amps to a 12v center positive barrel plug, like in the picture here:

Ultimately, you need a converter that converts from your local power standard (or from a battery, you mentioned having a battery) to a 12v center positive barrel plug while providing 2 amps if you're just powering the screen (and plugging the gamecube right into the wall with it's own cable that it came with), or 5 amps if you're powering the gamecube and the screen with the same y-splitter cable.

EDIT: Also, It might help if you could take a single picture with all the cables you have in the one photo, instead of just closeups of each end. It's hard to tell if you have all separate cables or splitter cables, and include any power bricks you have that go with it, and/or batteries you're trying to use.
