You will firstly need a scart lead, to make the picture from black and white into colour. Also, you will need a mains converter as the volt rates that they run at are different. A scart lead will set you back about £10, but I'm not sure about a mains converter. Take all the advice from this topic and you should be able to sort it. I hope that helps you, and get back to you if you have any more boggles.
Goblin aye , i'll have to look there !!
...Or you could get it from Goblin Direct. I did and it cost me £17
i had the same problem , all you need is a step down convertor , it is an adaptor that you plug the American plug in to , and then a UK plug goes into the socket on the wall, what it basically does is take the 230v for the UK current and turn it into 120v (or how ever much it is).
if you try and get one from the shops it will set you back around £30+ , so your best bet is to go to www.liksang.com , and you can get one for about £6 , then you have to pay about £10 postage as it is quite heavy , but it's better than paying £30.
I bought mine from there and it works fine , and also it comes in record speed ! from hong kong , it came in about 3 days !

Buy the latest edition of NGC magazine, it explains it very succinctly

You could get it chipped (breaking warranty though)
