Okay, folks, I've been researching the gp32 for quite some time now. Now, is it possible to mod the controls and the screen? I want to give it slightly different controls, and a completely different(PSONE screen, to be exact) display.

Thanks in advance.
 
u probably wont be able to mod the screen, the controls might be possible. it would be pretty hard to mod the controls aswell coz u'd have to drill holes tin the casing and suff.
 
Weeeeelll... in a purely theoretical sense, its definitely doable. Whether its actually practically so or not is another matter entirely. Lets deal with each on separately.

Screen:
What you'd need to do for this would be to...
- Find a screen of appropriate resolution to use (i.e. 320x240)
- Make a connector adapter such that you could actually physically connect them.
- Make a dandy adapter to convert the output to the GP32 LCD to one the replacement screen can use.
- Fit everything back together without breaking it all in the process

Buttons:
- Move the current microswitches/contacts or replace them with one ot the other.
- Mod the case accordingly so they'd all fit in.

And possibly more things that electronics people could tell you about but I can't.
