Add NES/SNES #1

Open hadess opened 4 years ago

The European NES can be powered with 9V DC, but I think that fries the US NES. Also need to double-check the PAL SNES/NTSC SNES/SFC situation (same jack).

NES looks to have a bridge rectifier as it expects AC power: https://console5.com/wiki/File:NES-001-Schematic---Power,-AV,-RF-Switch.png

NTSC SNES (American) expects DC voltage: https://console5.com/wiki/File:SNES-Schematic-Power-Reset-CIC.png

My confusion stemmed from:

American SNES wich takes DC directly in (NEVER try to use those with AC adapter. NEVER!) is rated 10V DC 850mA so inputting DC voltage should just work.
