    Default American DS

    Just a couple of quick questions,

    My mum is going to America next month, if i ask her to pick me up a DS whilst she is out there -

    a) will i be able to buy a UK charger for it and will it work on a US model
    b) will it run UK games

    My last question is if i wanted to set it up so it can run Rom as describe in other threads what would be the additional cost for all the bits excluding the DS itself.

    Cheers guys and gals

    the console its self is identical to the one bought in the UK, the only difference is the mains adapter, but u can pick up one here for about a fiver or get a USB charger for about a quid.

    Yeah as 909 said, totally region free gaming

    For a charger, look for a cheap GBA one, it'll work a treat

    GBA chargers will not charge the DS Lite, as the DS lite charger connector is smaller.

    Oooh cheers Glen, I've not even laid eyes on a Lite yet. Nintendo are being too tight to give me one.

    Thanks for the heads up fella.
