Ok this doesn't make any sense to me I was talking to the seller about this display.

He says it wont work. He says he plugged in a settop box and it didn't work. I think it might be used error
The lcd you listed works fine with intel compute stick as I have used the same in this build. Hovever there is cheaper alternative

It is only 1080p but half the price, works fine with compute stick but not with raspberry pi.
Just curious how this would fit the gamepad. As it has a stock 6.2inch screen and this one is 5.9inch. Wouldn't it leave a gap around the screen?

Will fit just fine with minimal gap around 2mm. Printed bezzel will cover the exposed lcd frame

No the one holding the lcd and cover the exposed frame. Original bezel + front case -> touchscreen->printed bezel->lcd

What are those analog sticks? Did you place LED's under translucent joysticks or something else?

Bottom part of joysticks painted white to reflect four RGB led placed around base

I'm reading through this entire thread to find a good screen for a similar project. Seems like comparable screens are tougher to find now. Why wont this screen work with RPI?

Have no idea, have tried it with rpi3 rpi3a and zero with stock and tweaked setting. Seems like some kind of handshake issue possibly a combination of resolution and screen orientation. Maybe someone can post a working config for rpi ?
