Post by Asomodai » Fri Feb 29, 2008 11:45 am

Hey guys.

I am looking to buy into a sanyo model 3do. I have a dealer who wants to sell, and i want to buy, Has there been any compatability problems with the sanyo console and PAL games?

What sort of power does the Jap consoles use? What converter do i need?
Any other weird info?

Cheers! Rob.

Which of course means it may well blow up when you plug it into the UK's 240volts! :lol:

A Sanyo logo comes flying in (really) and then you see a CGI Sanyo 3DO showing you to put in a disc and then the Sanyo shows up, starts spinning and every time it flips the 3DO logo is on the other side.

Asomodai, check your messages for a PM on the power supply.

FWIIW, living in the land of 240VAC I've been using the mini step-down transformer I picked up while I was visiting Japan. After 3 years of use my Sanyo 3DO TRY is still fine.
