Question?

I recently saw a collection of ps2 and games for sale and the person had a SWAP Magic 3 for sale with it? What is this item is it recomended? Which model should i get if i wanted to play japanese format games on my ps2?

Answer?

Yeah sure, that shit’s probably fine.

It allows you to play backups and PS2 games of different regions on a PS2 of which matches the region of the disc.

Keep in mind that in order to use a Swap Magic disc, you need a way to reach and swap the game disc without ejecting the disc tray.

A slide tool gets the job done and can be made out of household items. A flip-top is more expensive, but also more convenient.

what if you have the top load ps2? will that work? which model should i get and anyone got a link to where i can get one?

Let’s go with the assumption you actually want to play Japanese games (preferrably shmups).

On the slim you will need to either tape the lid sensors down or buy the little plastic inserts that don’t require you to open the case. Once the drive will spin with the lid open you’re good to go.

k it will spin with door open now where do i get one and which one do i get?

You need a Swap Magic disc. Modchip.ca is the only site I’ve personally ordered from that has them at a decent price ($25).
