All XBOX 360 USA NTSC models have a 3 pin US style cord.
The DICK smith tranformer has a 3 pin outlet too.. So just plug in..
If you dont have a 3 pin US style cord you may have another region..
Just take your time when posting.. Read over your posts and add exclamations and punctuation if you need too!!!.. It makes it easier to understand your problem.
Put it this way:
If you have a NTSC XBOX 360 (110v) and you buy a dick smith 500w transformer (stepdown) you just plug into one of the TWO outlets..
Simple.. My 360 has 3 pins.. and is 110v..
hope that helps with some of your answers.
btw.. XBOX LIVE kicks ass on 360.. Love chatting with members live online.

I was certain though that all members here on HQ with a 360 said 3 prongs for USA 110v.. weird maybe??

If it doesn't look like the top one, it isn't an official 360 power cord, I don't know that I would use it. _________________________________________________________

yep it works but i have a new itsa in chinese how can i change it to engish or australia.And this a description of whta the xbo360 is.This a US/JAPAN NTSC (NTSC J)model. It will work with most compatible TV system in Australia. However, if your TV is PAL system only, you will need a NTSC>PAL converter which is widely available on eBay. We do not provide the adapter.

I dont know what you are talking about wayneski..
Take your time mate.. Try to think of the easiest words to explain what your talking about.
As of this point im lost with what your saying??
It sounds to me like you have a JAPANESE XBOX 360..
