nintendo ds lite

I am off to New York and wonder if I could buy a DS lite there and would it work OK in UK

Comments

  • not sure myself, but what if you have a problem, i recently took my daughters faulty ds back to currys just as the guarantee was about to run out, they replaced it with no fuss
  • I think it might as i dont think ds/gameby games are region coded . The only rhing is you would have to cahnge the plug on the charger to a uk one or use a travel adapter when using the charger.

    But check before you buy.

    There's no region coding but you would need a UK charger, I believe you can get them for about £5 on ebay. I think Game also sell them fairly cheaply.

    As frestuffwoo said the only problem is if you have to return it. I would recommend thoroughly testing it and making sure there no dead pixels before you return to the UK.
    It's my problem, it's my problem
    If I feel the need to hide
    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die
