Title: 2 questions about the LT
Post by: GameFreak on February 11, 2011, 06:14:49 PM
I know you can plug an LT into the briefcase to play CD games, but can you output that signal (CD or Hu card) onto a TV, or are you stuck watching the video signal on the little LT screen?
Also, will the briefcase cover fit over the LT or is the LT to thick to attach the cover?

You can output the signal.

No, it won't fit as it's too thick.

You can definitely output the signal using AV cords. Here's a photo of mine:

I've never tried to put the briefcase cover over the LT (it is currenly attached to my Super CD Rom unit anyways) but from the photo, it does look like it is too tall to fit the cover.

That is really cool. And you can plug a controller or multi tap into the LT. I'm guessing there is no way to turn the LT screen off if you are watching the TV. Closing the LT shut, probably wont turn it off either right? I was just thinking of preserving the screen life of the LT. 

Maybe instead of doing a retro-bright project on a yellowed CDrom, it could be painted grey to mach the LT...... :-k
