A few years ago I made a school boy error and connected a UK NES power supply to my virtual boy after reading online it would be compatible and whilst it worked for a few minutes, the UK adaptor apparently is an AC input not DC like the US and it "fried" the system. No sound or video and the oscillators don't appear to get power. I believe I blew the voltage regulators.
I bought a loose head unit from Japan that worked, so the broken unit has sat in a cupboard ever since, but I would like to fix it. I know I could just bypass the voltage regulator, especially if I just use batteries on it, but has anyone ever been able to find a suitable replacement online?
