    Default NES Miracle Piano

    I found one of these at a Goodwill a few years ago... Anyway, I took a look at it and saw that it has MIDI out. I was thinking about trying to hook this up to the Rock Band 3 MIDI adapter when that comes out, but one problem, I don't have an AC Adapter. Can anyone point me in the right direction for an AC Adapter for it?

    Searching google for "NES miracle piano manual" shows many links to the manual. It seems that the miracle uses 12v AC, but it does not list the amperage. There should be a sticker on the bottom with the FCC, UL, etc info along with a part listing "power input 12vac xxx mA." Find the right adapter, then all you need is the right size plug. Polarity should be indicated near the power connector.

    I just dug it out and saw that the input is 12VAC 1.0 amps. What would be my best bet? Radio Shack?

    I figured this would be an easy find, but for some reason I just can't find AC-AC adapters today. Radio Shack may still be of assistance, but I can't find anything on their website. Hopefully someone else has a source.
