Importing console controllers
 

This may be a dumb question, but I'm pretty clueless when it comes to importing console hardware. I'm looking to import a Sega Surfwave from Lik-sang. Am I going to run into any compatibility issues by attempting to use the controller on an unmodded region 1 PS2? I imagine it shouldn't be a problem, but it can't hurt to be sure.

No problems whatsoever. Despite power voltage differences, once it passes through the console's power adaptor, everything is universal. I have two Japanese controllers for my Gamecube.

Most arcade sticks and the like sold at gaming stores are usually just imported from Japan anyway.

Thanks for the help! I went ahead and ordered it.

Anyone by chance have any personal experience with the Sega Surfwave? The reviews for it have been excellent, but I always like to get the opinions from first hand users as well.
