VHS is the recording method and is used in both systems.
The American system is NTSC ( Never Twice Same Colour ) and Europe is PAL ( and French SECAM - nuff said )
For analogue tape it needs a player capable of reading the different format - most modern VHS can do that.
For computer digital it makes no difference as the output is to computer screen. For video-out applications on computer it can introdcue some artefacts, but these are easily handled in video editor and post-processing reather than real-time conversion.
So if it's captured by anyone with a video-in on their computer in any of the hi res modes then it will be fine.
