How to make a FAT American PS2 play Japanese games?

Hello again,

I have a FAT version 4 American PS2, and I wanted to play a few Japanese PS2 games that I bought off of ebay on it. I know I'm not supposed to talk about mod chips or anything, but what are the ways I can mod/buy something for my Fat American PS2 to help accomplish this? Thanks in advance!

You could always buy a Japanese PS2 if your intending on buying more games, since you dont need to worry about compatibility and im pretty sure that all the cables on your current ps2 will work with it.

There is a program called Swap Magic. You need that and a special tool in order to halt the ps2 after it boots, then use the tool to open the drive to swap out the disc.

Swap magic is definitely the other way to go, but its a softmod and thought it would cross into the grey area?
Swap magic doesnt have 100% compatibility though, but it works with 99% or so.

I'm not selling it. He's asking a question I'm answering it. I dont know where you can find the soft mod. Crisis averted.

Buy a ModChip - And install it yourself or get someone to do it for you. Usually, they come with a Manual. Look around. IE: Google > PS2 Modchip, Fat PS2 Modchip, Original PS2 Modchip...

Thanks

Are you calling us Americans FAT? I resemble that remark.

On a similar note.. Sumo doesn't have a weight class.. But good luck with that inertia..
