The fact that is uses up every I/O pin on a standard Arduino kind of limits it's application doesn't it? Â
Plan on using a Mega board if you are going to the trouble of gifwriting a library for it, otherwise it's kind of useless, no?
Arduino really with a pool resources of I/O .. so 16bit will use up all the pins of Arduino , if you want to use the touch and the SD card , then just can choose the 8bit mode -- which more slower than you can imagine Â

Mega has enough I/O for the LCD ,touch , SDcard even the external flash .
Even in the 16bit mode work in 16M , the refresh rate is not faster than 1 frame per second ... so you can used the arduino to show the UI menu or a static image , but the video beyond its capacity -- STM32 is a good choice, I like the DMA

The code for 8 bit mode~ connect the DB9-DB16 to the Arduino D0-D7 . pull the DB1-DB8 to GND.
The same effect as the 16bit mode , but slower than 16bit mode , if you use the 8M 3.3V Arduino Pro , about 3 seconds one frame.... but now you have the pins for SD card and the Touch.
