    Guys. Just bought a Japan 360. I was wondering if I need a 220v to 110v convertor. The 360 is new from play-asia. Its on the way.

    I have a recent (jasper) 360 i got here. Any idea where I can get a stepdown convertor ?

    play-asia have one for 30€ but the cheapest shipping on that is €50 !

    What does the power brick say it can handle for inputs?

    I think...

    Input 200-240v. Output 150v.

    I wouldn't trust plugging the eu power brick into the japanese console. Can lead to a fried console if it's not supported. I got a stepdown convertor for my saturn in Peats. Make sure you know what voltage and amps you need converted before you go in.
