Ok so I finally aquired an original Japanese PC Engine, the small white model.
But, I need help picking out the right power supply for it to use in North America.

Any direct links (like say Amazon) would be appreciated.
Please help.

Sega Genesis model 1 ac adaptor.
Justin the Not-So-Cheery Black/Hack/CrackTiger helped Joshua Jackass, Andrew/Arkhan Dildovich and the DildoPhiles destroy 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged/destructive/doxxing toxic turbo troll gang which he covers up for under the "community" euphemism!

I have a bunch of brand new video universal Power supplies that are pc engine compatible just sitting here. $7 shipped if you want one.

They work for pc engine/tg16, NES, SNES, and Genesis Model 1.

It ain't picky about the voltage but the polarity probably has to be center-negative.

The JPN/PCE spec of 9v jumped to "10.5v" in the USA/TG16 spec, almost as if they just took an adapter intended for 100v and threw it into US 110-120v outlets, which scales the output proportionally with that type. The 10% to 20% input voltage increase results in 10% to 20% increase in output voltage. 9v becomes ~9.9v to 10.8v, which is roughly "10.5v").

It's the most common size too: 5.5x2.1mm. Center negative is only common here in old Japanese game stuff or even older battery + DC jack portable devices (transitioned in the '70s).

Some Neogeo AES plugs will work (not the 5v ones), SEGA Genesis Model 1 (and Master System?), aftermarket NES (not the original that outputs AC), etc will work.

Is there a readily available replacement for SuperGrafx AC adapter?

Started a US TurboGrafx-16 Collection in 2017! ... Then I moved on to PC Engine

Thank you.
I'd seen that site come up in google searches, but didn't think they'd sell US adapters. Decent price too, about US$20 shipped
