I'd say 140 watts would be fine:

You won't need one game specific, just go to any radio shack or even lowe's/home depot, I think they sell them there. The cigarette lighter ones are best. I have a 500 watt that's hard wired in my truck and I get feedback noise through my stereo (avic-n1) when I hook my PS2 up to it. Not sure why it does that but it still works, just have to crank it up!

You'll get a better bang for the buck buying an inverter at a truckstop such as Pilot,T/A,Petro or Flying J. Xantrex makes the better of the brands.Also when sizing an inverter,go 25% over the anticipated load to avoid heat issues.
