      No. That's a charger for the original GBA that is a different connection to the SP. It was crap because it retailed for ?20 and didn't even hold a charge, you could only use it whilst plugged in at a well. The one in that link is this one

      Just get the standard SP charger from GAME for ?7.99. I have one for my Japanese Torchic Sp and it works flawlessly. It will be the same with the DS.

            They charged my card twice for one order once. I paid for express delivery and the time of delivery surpassed standard delivery times. They are pretty poor based on my experience dealing with them.

            I do like thier prices though.

                Ok ok I know I'm being a bit crap here but could someone just catagorically answer this question as I'm finding it a bit confusing.

                I know that a standard SP charger should suffice for running a US DS but I can't find any on Games site except one which includes a battery and is ?15! here, adaptor + battery or this one here gba adaptor which appears to be for a standard gba not a sp?

                I'm popping into Game tomorrow and want to pick one up. What exactly is it Im looking for?

                            Well I've used the UK SP charger on a Japanese SP, so there isn't a problem

                                I think you should change your screen name to paranoid_broon.
