Power Supply question for HVC-101

I already know the fact that Triad power supplies esp. WSU 090 1300R are now widely considered as the best power supplies for the NES/Famicom, SNES etc. But it's not available in my region.

Can I use Mean Well power supply, model no. NGE12E09-P1J, it's 9V 1.33A center positive. I can use a reverse polarity cable or should I solder the wire to a new DC jack to reverse the polarity?

Some output details from the Data Sheet:

Current Range: 0-1.33A

Do you remember watching this movie in 2002?

Screaming voices, Ooty forest atmosphere, Ashutosh Rana's character was a nightmare back then for 90s kids.

Cinderella mera intezar karna!

This song was so catchy back then in early 2000s. Suddenly, it came to my memory after years. Anyone else remember it?

I still have kept my small CRT tv

While everyone else moved on to Ultra HD LED tv, I've still got this 14" small CRT and I love it. Frequently, I clean the inside of this CRT so that its life is maintained.

Very scary horror serial episode

Around 2000-01 or very late 90s, I've watched this episode maybe it was from Aahat? Don't remember the show's exact name but the episode was scary as hell.

A woman in all black attire used to follow slowly the person who was supposed to be dead and she was visible only to that person only. Also, she used to say "Main maut hoon" before finally taking the person with her.

I was so scared after watching that episode, I would believe she is standing somewhere outside my house and I stopped looking outside the window for many days at night.

Tom & Jerry Comics Britannia Cream Treat 🥹

In early 2000s, I used to buy Britannia Cream Treat biscuits back then just to collect these mini Tom & Jerry comic books. I have collected all in English language and have also got a few in Hindi language as well. These comics also included some puzzles inside. Unfortunately, I lost all of them while moving to another city.

Alif Laila on Doordarshan

Do you remember watching the magical "Alif Laila" at night during the 1990s? I love its title song. I'll start watching this iconic show again from the beginning.

What are some of the episodes you still remember? Although all episodes are so good, the one I remember the most are "Aladdin", "Halkaash Dev & Ghazala", "Sindbad Jahazi's voyages" esp. the Had-e-Sikandari episode.

Selling og NES console NTSC (USA)

I want to sell NES console which is fully recapped with new premium quality capacitors and cleaned from inside. Console comes with one genuine controller, 150 in 1 multicart, AV cable and a power adapter. Tested & fully working. The NES logo have been wiped off because of accidental use of isopropyl alcohol while cleaning. Other than that, everything is completely fine and it reads cartridges everytime. Audio/Video quality is better since it is a recapped console.

Asking price is 6,500 plus shipping. Shipping all over India.
