Are there switching PSUs available for the Sega Saturn? I want to get a NTSC Saturn and run it on 230v, and step-down converters are just a fucking mess.

grab a taiwan/hK version. they are 220v.

You could just get a PAL saturn and swap out the PSU board. As long as the models match up, it should be fine, although I think there might have been some minor revisions that could require a jumper.

This. Its pretty damn easy to do.
>>
>>3907410
those are rare as fuck.

>>3907393
I never had any problems with my stepdown converters, maybe you are just using shitty ones?

>>3907410
At least Hong Kong uses PAL though, pretty sure Taiwan does too.
>>3907412
That could work, but then I would have to waste a PAL Saturn on that. Doubt there's any games that are better in PAL on the Saturn though. Also, it would be the best if there was a way to install a switching PSU in case I move again.

I just hate putting a bunch of extra equipment on top.

The HK Saturns were stock japanese consoles with 220v consoles. There was one special variant but even that only had a "video cd" decal only and a preinstalled card, nothing special.

They are extremely rare now. Ten years ago you had a chance of sniping one on Ruten or DoctorHK, and there was a batch of a thousand or so units found and sold for pennies, but they never even turn up anymore.

Use an emulator on your PC. Then you'll have 1 box with a switching power supply that runs 15 consoles worth of games.

They waste electricity too, which is sorta expensive where I live.

Stop with this idiotic meme already. I was emulating it fine way back in 2006.
