I stumbled across this little trick that many people in Europe or the UK might want to use. I don't know if this is a well known trick or not but here goes.

A company called Mercury manufacture PSU and call them "switching power supply": http://avslgroup.com/en/product/660.444UK

It has various "plugs" (8 in total) which is why it is called "switchable" and one of them fits an NTSC SNES perfectly. This is only half the battle as you may know. The best thing here is that the PSU also outputs DC 9V. The NTSC SNES states DC 10V but I've tried it and works perfectly. It's also pretty cheap and more reasonable than having to use a step down transformer.

If you want to see this in action I can take a quick YouTube video. The reason I titled this as European also is because it can be seen here: http://avslgroup.com/en/product/660.444EU

HELLO!
No loss of display quality with the voltage difference?
Caution: This user contains Kana ^_^
From what I understood in other threads, the voltage gets reduced to something like 5 V DC internally, so why should there?
Given that the SNES seems remarkably cool with different kinds of power you feed him xD

Display quality seems fine. When viewing the LCD display from the side you can notice like a line running down the middle of the screen but it goes away when you face the TV directly. This actually seems like a common issue though: http://www.sega-16.com/forum/showthread.php?18935-SNES-vertical-line-issue

Now I come to think of it I saw this line on my SFC which I run via a Megadrive PSU as well.
