Nintendo plug

[seasickstevie]

Anyone with a suggestion where I can get a plug for this?
Wasn't wanting to buy a complete new power supply if I can help it.

I don't think you can buy that connector by itself, it's not very 'generic'. Be aware also, there are two versions of that connector, left and right handed...

Did he chew up the plugs, or only the cable?

Just chewed the small 2-pin plug.

Haven't managed to find a source for a plug, so ordered a new power supply off eBay for a tenner.

A proper Nintendo or reputable UK/EU maker's one, I hope, not some knock-off sold direct from China.

Sadly the latter.

I was thinking of cutting the lead and connecting the plug to the original power supply with a flex connector. Seems like the better option maybe.

You probably should reserve judgement in relation to even that until you have cut the cable and seen inside - they have been known to have a paucity of copper inside them!
