Re: PLAY STATION 2
Hi
We purchased a down converter - sorry dont know the site but definitely through the internet so you will need to do a google search or something to find out.
The PS2 works fab on it - but dont foget that you wont be able to play Canadian games on it.
Hijacking thread now (but maybe worth it) :
Would any of you techno buffs know if there is a way to make the PS2 machines multi regioned - like the DVD's ???? The way that you used to be able to get PS ones chipped I think that it was called in the UK.
Think it is a valid question !

Hi Gaynor ,
We had ours chipped before we came and it works fine with both english and canadian games. The only problem we have now is the system is old and I have no idea if anybody can fit the chip into a new ps2 in PEI.
My cousin in Oshawa knows of somebody who can fit one but that is a bit far to travel !!
To the original poster we brought the voltage changer from www.voltageconverters.com

Hi , what is the wattage (I think that's what it's called )on the converter you use. My son has a PS2 he wants to use.

It works fine on our Toshiba, but it won't work on the cheap Wally's World (sorry Walmart) TV. It plays both UK & Canadian games.

I think that Phil bought 2500 watt for the PS2 - but we do run a TV, dvd and video off that too.
Did the supermarket chip the PS2 whilst you waited ???
