Last week I just got the Japan Up/Down converter in order to play any Japanese import systems like Nintendo Famicom or Sega Mega Drive using this converter and tested both Famicom and Super Famicom have a TV set that can get both Channel 95 & 98 to work with any Japanese systems. Now Im ready to bring back any gaming systems from Japan later this year if all goes well.

It’s recommended that to use the original Japanese power adaptor that came with the Famicom, Disk System or accessories when playing in the United States or Canada. To do so will require a step-down converter.

The Japanese Famicom power adaptor is equipped with the same prongs, and nearly the same input voltage (AC 100V) as AC adaptors used in the United States and Canada. The proper output voltage is DC 10V, 850mA.

Never use an NES AC adaptor with any Famicom. Most adaptors transform the electricity from AC to DC. The NES adaptor takes the input voltage down but still puts out AC, which is potentially harmful to any Famicom.
