Thanks!

Second screen arrived today. I deliberately bought one that didn't have buttons on the back hoping that it would have a small PCB. Opened the box to find it does have buttons on the back.

Don't remember which was first, but I remember Mario Bros on NES, Flappy (NOT flappy bird) on some old computer and River Raid and Pitfall on Atari.

Re: First Build Part Help

You will also need a battery, charger (PowerBoost 1000C or the banggood one), power switch, wires, speaker, headphone socket (if using), stereo or mono amplifier and probably more that I have forgotten.

Re: Collecting information on alternative displays - please contribute

I had the same board in my LCD.

The second one I ordered had no buttons on the back, so hopefully it has a small board.

The second one you posted looks perfect Rewired44. Didn't find that in my searching. Ill grab one of them if my second one doesn't work either.
