man yur ps2 is dirty as hell i wudnt b surprised if it doesnt read too fast.. games memcardds etc.. i got a used one like last year and i just cleaned it today.. and it runs a lot better..
I bought Swapmagic 3 and Gradius Gaiden. I'm doing everything your video details, even using the CD Rom Driver but I think I'm missing something because it's still not letting me do it.
hi I'm thinking about buying Swap Magic & the slide tool for my fat ps2 so I can play imports, but I'm a little hesitant about actually using it. i don't have the money to buy a slim ps2 so the fliptop's out of the question, but does the slide tool screw up your ps2? i don't want to break it...
dvd+rw's don't work with this believe me I tried. I thinks dvd-r's are supposed to work. Just thought I'd put this out there most + media and rw's don't read on a ps2. your best bet is cd-r/dvd-r (dual layer for big games) good luck!

If you get a swap magic disc to play import PlayStation 2 games do you still need a flip top converter? Cause those things look SO complicated to install. PLZ respond.
Hey. I have used the slide card on my 50001 concole. Playing smackdown vs raw my friend got me hooked to. After a while things become hard for the game. such as sound skip, slow game loading, strange noises. So I am thinking of using a flip top cover. I have it but the place I bought it from sent me the wrong one when I wanted one for my 30001 10 screw sonsole. The V9 console needs repairs. the V3 console needs a new eject/reset rebbon like cable. ugh. I do have some burnt games.
cool. everything works for me. thanks for posting this vid :) only thing to do now is make a disk with more songs...some are in rock band and gh3 now lol
quick question. when u unhook the mechanism does it make the disk stop spinning, meaning the noise to listen for when you put it back is sound of the disk spinning? or do you just hear a click?
dunno. i just hear like a whirring kinda noise which might be the disc. but either way you should feel a tiny bit of resistance when sliding it back and forth when you catch onto it.
the cover? you mean the whole thing or the front of the tray? the whole thing you have to take out those rubber things on the bottom and unscrew all of the 8 screws or w.e. For the front of the tray i dont know if there is a legit way of taking it off or not. i had to pry it off.
I've been looking everywhere for a confirmation of one thing u said in the "About this Video" section, of taking off the part of your disc tray that has the ps2 logo on it.... THX!!!!!!!!!!!
Because you don't have the appropriate tools. You need a hardware mod such as magic keys or a fliptop or even a home mod where you use some item to cover the 3 lasers in the disc tray, AND you need Swap Magic of the appropriate region.
No i'm not lying. I have a fliptop for my fat ps2 and Swap Magic 3.6 USA so I can play IIDX Distorted, a Japanese region game.
makes sense. i really havent used it that much. i thought i ruined my mechanism that makes the tray go in and out because it wouldnt pop out anymore. little did i know i needed to slide the little white thingy inside back to the left. so i ended up buying a modified ps2. so i just have this one sitting in my room collecting dust. but then after buying it, i figured out how to fix it...T_T
A fliptop is better though. Slide cards may be cheaper but they kill the motor easily. Fliptop you dont even have to press your eject button putting a non-import game in. Just have it off or on stand by and open the lid put the game in and it runs fine.
I've been talking to a person who has the slide card and has been using it for a while and his PS2 runs just fine. The fliptop only works for the slim ps2 and the ps2 v4 through v10 =] So I think for the people who dont have ps2 slim or the ps2 v4 through v10, the slide card is a good choice just as the fliptop =DD The only difference of the fliptop is that you dont reset the ps2 when you open it, so the slide card isnt needed^^ I hope this helps anyone who has questions XD
not sure exactly. but maybe its just that your too afraid that you might accidently breeak something. but im not 100% sure what you are encountering and how much tension your talking about. all i know is that when you slide it to the right, then you pull the tray out towards you.
im glad this helped. sure wish i could find a video this helpful back when i didnt know how. i just used trial and error and evenutally figured it out.
So this swap magic disc will play ANY imported Japanese PS2 or PS game you buy? And do you have to do this each time you play a imported game? Please answer ASAP, I plan on buying it soon!^^ Thank you!
i'm curious why did u take the edge thing off at that disk insert spot. instead of using the slide, cant u just press the open button and just push the disk thing in when u want it to close?
I recently lent my swap magic out and never got it back. Now I need to know a good reliable source to get swap magic + slide card if you could PM me a reliable site it would be appreciated. Also can the cover (with the logo) be reattached without it being lose and falling off?
Dude, that's really fucking confusing. :\ Can you mail me (on youtube) like a retard's step by step guide on how to do it? Cause I dont get it. And how come I see some other people using it without the slide card thing?
ahhh. thats how you make the swap discs work. i tried taking my ps2 apart and leaving the cover off so i could try to take the disc out manually so i can swap in the other disc but i pushed the x button and it never workd. guess i should go get a slide card or a clothes hangaar and hope it works. thanks a billion!!!
so all of the custom songs are burned on to one disc? can you post some info on how to obtain these files and whether or not it's just a basic burning process like any other thing. also where to purchase teh slide card and magic swap plz:D
hey thanks alot! ive been trying to put gh2 custom songs on my dvds for weeks and nothing workd. i didnt know that you actually needed a slide card. i should go buy one now. thanks alot.!!!
you have to extract the files from the disc onto the computer and make a backup folder for them. you could also download iso's of games and then burn it onto a dvd r.
So if i use swap magic and play an imported game from japan will i be able to still play american PS2 games?
