Will a PS3 Slim from Hong Kong work in the US in terms of electricity?
i'm planning to buy a ps3 from hong kong, but i need to know if the plug that goes into the outlet will work here in the US, because of the different voltage in countries. i remember one time i brought my gamecube from here to the philippines and when i plugged it in, the power cord broke. so yeah, will a ps3 slim's power cord from hong kong work in the US? if not, can i simply buy a different power cord that could work here? thanks. I also read that the power cord is universal. does this mean it can plug into any kind of outlet no matter the voltage?

You will need an adapter possibly because my mom bought a laptop there to bring over in Canada and it needed an adapter.

No. Their wiring and all is completely different, just like most places in the world all vary on that.

depending if you have the outlet adapter to work overseas,but i would just use batteries instead man...

The general consensus is that all PS3s have a built-in voltage converter so in that regard all you should need is a PS3 power cable for the Hong Kong outlets. However, it never hurts to buy a power converter to be safe. Its a $400+ machine after all. EDIT: Have a look at this. http://www.eurogamer.net/forum_thread_posts.php?thread_id=68988 It should work the way it is. In addition to the link, I have only seen success stories and not stories of failure regarding the built-in power converter issue. You'll only need a different power cable or plug adapter if the current PS3 power cord doesn't fit into the Hong Kong outlet. You don't need a power converter of any sort.
