I've heard the guys on this forum say that the Nintendo stuff is 100 volt and not 120 volt. Wouldn't hook it up to 120.

The sharp and sanyo monitors nintendo used have an ungrounded power plug that looks like it could plug into mains. But, DON"T DO IT. Those monitors require a 1.1:1 isolation transformer that changes 120v to 100v. Plugging it in directly to 120v is a great way to shock yourself and fry the monitor...
