If you want, there's the Australian NDSi third party charger I saw today at EBGames. AUD18. Only thing is, the charger socket pin is Australia, so you need an adapter for that. Australian voltage is the same as Malaysian.

QUOTE(steve1031 @ May 12 2009, 05:37 PM) So actually even if i bought a Japan version NDSi, i can use any charger i want as long as the charger is for NDSi, izzit what u mean?? No. The Japanese NDSi charger only converts 110V, not Malaysia's 220-240V. Using that Japanese charger will be disastrous because of the wrong voltage rating on your included Japanese NDSi charger. You either need to use a stepdown transformer to bring down the voltage to 110V before you plug it into the Japanese charger, or buy a separate charger that does that voltage conversion by itself, such as the one used by the European and Australasian countries which adopts the 220-240V rating on their power sockets.

Or buy a USB NDSi charger. I think I saw one today too.

If he tried it on his without the infamous "blue smoke with sulphur smell", then it should be fine. IIANM, the adapter should accept 220-240V and downconverts and feeds 5V into the DSi.
