Help! Is there a way to use an N64 system in a car (DC power)? (1 Viewer)

[Bill Balcziak]

I got fairly cheap N64 system and I was wondering if there's a way to use it in the van with a TV/VCR combo? The A/V part is easy--I can just plug the standard RCA-type audio and video cables from the N64 into the input on the TV/VCR. But what about the power? Does anybody know how to run an N64 on DC power? Is there an adapter available (I've looked, but I can't find one). I swear I've seen a Nintendo setup for a car, but I can't recall where.

Your help is GREATLY appreciated!

Many newer cars have AC outlets, that's probably where you've seen it

Mine, however does not. Just good old fashioned DC. :frowning:

You should be able to buy a converter for your car that would allow you to do exactly what you need to do. I would try Radio Shack first...they might have just what you're looking for.

You need a power inverter.

Around $30 at Fry's, DC-to-AC power inverter for cars.
Something like this.

nope. you can't get an N64 to hook up with DC power. they are two different game systems.
