You need a 3.0 Card for Rondo of Blood (and MOST other games you'll want, like Lords of Thunder and Gate of Thunder). It is $50-100 for the US version. It is worth it.
That's a good deal you got on the Turbo, though. It is true about those AC adapters being hard to find, as far as I know. I imagine that are about the same power rating as their Japanese counterparts.
