    Default Identifying Dualshock 2 as Pal or NTSC

    Is there anyway to differentiate between them? There are US Patent Numbers on the back of my controller, does this mean it is a NTSC Model or do they all have US patent numbers. Cant seem to find advice on this using google.

    A PS2 controller is a PS2 controller. There should be no functional difference.

    In regards to if there is a specific 'UK' controller you'll need to wait for a UK'r to chime in on that.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    Pulled out one of my dual shocks... has "Made in China" on the back along with US patent numbers, so I guess they're identical.

    Wouldn't European ones have European safety certification numbers or something?
