I see which one you mean, but I still don't know if this means it has a minus or plus polarity.

If wires to 7805 aren't twisted, it is negative polarity.

Which I guess they aren't? Will the adapters I liked to work then? In the description it says it has minus polarity on the center conductor.

Yes, they should work.

Thank you. Now I might actually get this old console up and running again. I just hope the AC adapter was the only thing that was broken :P

Bought the adapter and the console seems to work without any problem. Too bad none of the controllers work, except for the start button on one of them. The sound is much worse than I remember it :P
