Is it possible for the Wii, and I mean the Wii, to blow up when that power supply(grey thing you attach to the back of the Wii) is plugged into a foreign plug. Or will it only be the power supply? Coz i think i blew up mine...

BUMP

You think you blew yours up? What happened exactly?

Well if you normally hook it up to a 120V outlet and plug it in to a 330V outlet, odds are something would get damaged. It's possible for both the power supply and the console to be damaged.

You need a converter, don't plug it too foreign outlets without one. What are you trying to hook up exactly? I may be bale to help in greater detail.

Well if it doesn't blow up, it'll get damaged somehow...

i dunno i just plugged it in and i heard a boom-like sound...so i tried smelling if something was burning... no trace.

So it didn't get damaged? Everything is A-okay?

I've had just the plug blow up on me, such as with my PS2 (although it wasn't plugged into a foreign outlet, it was a power surge). However, my PS1 was not so lucky. It was plugged into a foreign outlet by a crazy little three-year-old and it burned up. It didn't work afterwards.

There is the possibility that you will get away with nothing, but chances are it was been critically damaged. There is also a chance that it will still turn on, but something inside was damaged.

In other words, it might work, but I'm sorry to say it probably won't. Foreign plugs usually destroy electronics plugged into them.

i have never experienced this problem with any game system ive owned over the past 15 years of my life

When I went to china, I plugged my DS into the outlet, and it was fine, it just charged normally.

I believe they use 110 volt outlets in China, don't they? If so, then it should work fine. However, plug it into a 220 volt outlet in Europe and it will destroy it.

wow i just hope it still works...

If it still works in around a week it should be ok

What exactly is a 'foreign outlet'? They all look the same to me. It's safe to plug it into a surge protector right?
