I hope somebody can help me with this? If a home cart neo system has a input of 220v and a output of 9v, does this mean, it's a euro machine, and if so, how can i use it in US? Thank you to anybody that can help.

you might have problems, if it's a pal system. might display a b/w picture only.

i have a 60hz ngh system, that came with a switchable (110v/220v) 10v power supply, but i still don't know. if it's a us or a 60hz euro system.

anyway ...
replacing the power supply shouldn't be too much of a problem. might be pricy, though.

thank you supergoose, do you think i would be able to use the japanese power supply they sell at the neostore? If it is a euro system, i do know how to change the crystal inside to be able to display the correct refresh rate, i was just worried about the power supply, because the us input is 110v. So i wanted to make sure i can get another power supply that would work with the system without damaging anything. Thanks for your help again.

hmmm ...
the neo store's power supplies seem to be the +5v and +10v versions.
maybe you should try to get a generic 9v psu.
