PS2 Import Solutions

[RCM]

Hey People-
Your old friend RCM here. I have never imported anything for the PS2. I am planning on picking up a few of the Sega 3D Ages collection and need to convert my ps2. I was wondering what my options were. I am not a fan of MOD chips or the fliptop thing. I was wondering if there was a disc or something designed for the PS2 that would allow me to play Japanese imports without fucking up my system. Thanks to all

THE ONE, THE ONLY-RCM

Ah, yes, the Magic Slide kit. It uses the same boot discs that are normally used with the flip top lid, but in this case, you use a plastic card to disengage the tray and open it. It's not terribly risky if you know just what you're doing, but if you don't have that steady-handed dexterity, you might be safer just putting in the lid. There's also the no-solder ejector mods, but those are kind of pointless.

And the Swap Magic boot discs work great, by the way. Just get a set, pick your preferred method of changing discs without the PS2 knowing it, and you'll be ready to go.

To tell you the truth, I just wait till the games come stateside. I did mod my PS1 though. But Im through all that. Guess I got patient when it comes to video games x_x
