When I leave for Korea next week I'll be bringing some video game systems with me: A Playstation 2 (original model), a Nintendo Wii, and an Xbox 360. These are all North American systems. I've been given conflicting information on how to plug them in in Korea.

Do any of these systems feature auto-switching dual voltage like most computers do(I was told at Radio Shack they did), meaning I just need adapters to allow a US power cable to plug into a Korean outlet, or do I need an actual voltage converter?

Thanks in advance

Look at the power input label on the power supply or bottom of the machine.

If it says 110v input then you need a converter.

If it says 110-220v input then you just need a plug adapter.
