Hello to all.
I have recently purchased a Nintendo 64 from the UK and the original power supply socket is a G shape and written on it is PRI: 230V 50Hz.
However, I am in mainland Europe, meaning the power supply here is F 220V 50Hz, if I am not mistaken.
I understand that newer systems have higher tolerances in which variation is concerned to allow for some inter-usage between the UK and Europe with just a simple socket converter.
However, the Nintendo 64 is older than this modification.
As the most powerful supply was the console's original, I am thinking that the European voltage will not be capable of frying any circuits, but I am uncertain.
I have been unable to find information about this particular issue and I would like to know if I can get this N64 to work with just a socket converter from G to F here in mainland Europe, or it would not work.
Thank you very much.
