I recently bought a japanese Dsi (Used) it came with a japanese charger that i cant use because i live in Europe and i wanna buy a new charger but i dont know if it will work, The japanesse charger says (INPUT:AC100V-120V 50/60Hz 12VA OUTPUT:DC4.6V 900mA) the charger i wanna get says (AC 100V~240V — 50/60 Hz — DC 5V — 500 mA CE Standards and Norms.) Will the charger i wanna get will work with the DSi?

That charger outputs a slightly higher voltage and lower power than the official charger, I'm not an expert but that may well not work. However, it's worth remembering that any 3DS charger will also work with a DSi, and they should still be fairly easy to find.

@CinnamonRobin The charger i wanna buy is compatible with Nintendo Dsi / Dsi XL / 3DS / 3DS XL

It'll be an unofficial, 3rd party one. It may work, but if it outputs lower power then it'll probably charge more slowly, and I don't know enough about electronics to know what effects it might have on the battery. If you can, I'd get an official one since they should still be fairly easy to find.

@CinnamonRobin I found this one INPUT: 100-245 Volt
50/60 Hz OUTPUT DC 4,6 Volt
900mA will that work?

Yep, that one sounds good. Mine says the same output on it.
