HAY GUYS

Hay guys, I know there have already been quite a lot of threads about this topic, but they're either outdated or do not help me right here.

So I am planning to get a new PS2 after my old kind of crashed lol so I want to get a slim one this time because they look cooler etc. Now I still have my SwapMagic 3.6 discs and (of course) I want to use them again. I read quite a lot about the fact that SwapMagic works rather fine with the small PS2s but my question is: Is it really that easy to install the tools; I really don't have to open the PS2 in order to get it working with SwapMagic, I just have to place those three tools and that's it? Is SwapMagic with a slim PS2 less annoying than the slidecard shit with the big one?

Thanks in advance for any info

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well my old PS2 has already been given away to some guy who seriously wanted to pay 45 € for a non-functional PS2. I heard about that HDLoader thing, but I dunno, I mean, I would have to buy some adapter and a harddisk for that, right?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, you need the "Slimtool" for slimline PS2s. If you have a new 75004, you need the "Slimtool MK2".

I just ordered that Slimtool MK2 thing. Using Swap Magic with the slimline PS2 is much less annoying and difficult than using it with the old, big ones.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Something else... anyone knows whether PS1 backups work with Swap Magic?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Well, of course you can still play original PS1 games with your PS2, doesn't matter whether you use Swap Magic or not.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Yeah, I had a lot of trouble with the last tool as well. But it eventually fit so that it worked. The only problem is that sometimes, the lid goes up, which isn't bothering me too much, though.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
