It does. One page of the 8485 instruction manual:
http://library.brickshelf.com/scans/8000/8485/8485-027.html
shows the area on top, the lt gray area above the red A-B buttons where
there are no studs. This is where the 9V input connector is, same size as
the RCX. The connector enters at a downward angle.
The unit also accepts 6 C cells. Since I bought mine from DYA, it came with a
220V wallwart.
