I got a nintendo lite in the usa in january and had to buy a special connector for it in power city. This changes the power imput and only cost approx 20 euro.
There is also a frequency difference, so assuming this runs directly off the mains it will be slower over here by about 16%. If it is battery powered it will not make a difference.
Hi;
Has anyone charged a nintendo ds lite - bought in ireland - in the US? The charger I got with it says 230v - 50Hz so I'm assuming it's not going to work????? I'd really like to have it charged up for the flight home.
Maybe I can buy a charger there....................
Any advice appreciated
Thanks!
I think you may need a step-down transformer - I bought one for a radio purchased in the US and it works fine. I have seen one at Amazon - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tacima-Step-Down-Transformer-120V/dp/B0009K6M44
Judging by what Alias said in another thread "My brother and I each have a DS (the original one) his bought in Canada and mine in Ireland, and we've swapped power cords and games"
it sounds like u will be. That was my original plan, to buy a us charger.............amazon have them for $12something but don't deliver outside the US.
