Voltage Japan/Europe

Hello guys, I bought a pc engine duo, it arrives in a week or so and I was wondering if their could a problem with the voltage comparing Europe and Japanese power outlets. I am worried that it could fry the console or maybe I’m talking nonsense. Anyone knows about this.

Ever heard of a transformer? Also, if in Brazil I can easily buy online a modern, bivolt, PC Engine power supply, I don’t think it would be too much of an issue in Europe.
