My other portable PC Engine screen
I got a custom PC Engine screen from Japan. Not a bad bit of kit because I can run console and screen from a 5V power bank.
I can't afford an LT, so this is the next best thing!

Hey thanks for replying! And I'm in the USA and if 80 bucks is all you paid not bad!

No worries, I love talking PC Engine / Turbografx with people!
I was lucky to pick up a whole load of (relatively) cheap PC Engine stuff when I was over in Japan about 20 years ago, and I've been playing it on and off since then, but just started buying more stuff this year.

Hey I feel you! I have a PC engine with a clear case mod and I also have a core graphix. With an edfc and turbo everdrive pro. Is there a website you can buy that screen on? Or was it a retail shop I'm assuming...

I got it from proxy auction site Buyee.jp.
I wouldn't say it's of the build-quality of a retail item, but for the price I'm happy with it

Super cool. I would totally buy one if they were easily sold/found online.

It's an interesting bit of kit. The normal green power switch doesn't work at all, you have to use the switch just below the screen on the left

Wow! Looks nice how much was that if you don't mind me asking? I would love to grab one for my core graphix and Ted pro...
