Brought back from U.S to AUS having power supply issues

While talking a trip to California I bought a second hand Nintendo64 while in my hotel room it worked perfectly fine with no issues!

When I took it back with me to my home in Australia I made a mistake of just plugging it in directly without being aware the different regions support different voltages.

I think I may have damaged the power supply, but, I have no way of telling if it’s damaged or not, nor how it should be properly set up without risk.

Is this a good question?

Yes you likely killed the power supply.

At this point you really can’t use it even if you fixed it as you still need a unit which supports your 230 volt power. Here is one option 100-240V AC Adapter Power Supply Charger For Nintendo 64 N64 UK/US/EU/AU Plug

The Nintendo unit is the same across the world! It's only the AC power adapter thats different.
