Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix +

Okay I have a couple, but the one I posted on the Answers aren't getting answered. Oh well, that's my luck. Anyways, play-asia is out of stock, and I would like to know where else I can get this game for cheap. The ones I find on Ebay are like $60.. with some being $100+.

And since I have a silver slim, what Swap Magic do I need? Just 3.6/8, or do I need a tool with it as well. Again where do I buy it, and how much for?

And last one, I previously had KH:CoM (for ps2) but some a hole stole it. It was in English, will the one ordered with Final Mix+ be English, or will I have to use Swap Magic on it as well?


Thanks in advance you guys! :D

I bought KH2FM Ultimate Hits 2 weeks ago on eBay for under 50$. I'm sure there are others, keep checking as to when some of the bigger asia sellers restock.

As for the Swap Magic, I eBay'd that one as well. 29 bucks and change. If you go to http://www.swapmagic3.com/ they have a lisy of resellers that may save you a few bucks.

For a slim Ps2 you'll need what's called a Flip Top. The link posted above should provide info on how to purchase and install that as well.

As for versions of SM, I use 3.8 on my chubby Ps2, but I'm about 80% sure you could use 3.6 or 3.8 on yours. 3.8 has more features and isn't any more costly, so you may as well get that.

Finally, Re:CoM is in Japanese, through and through. Even the cutscenes. Thus, the language barrier will hit you much harder than with FM. My suggestion, if you really want to play it, is to buy a new American version. Failing that, you'll have to SM the KH2FM one.

I looked.. at www.swapmagic3.com and my console (my luck sucks -.-) is not on the list of models. It's a SCPH-77001, which isn't on the list. I don't know anything about this whole japanese buying thing, or the swap-magic. as of right now the cheapest I found is on yesasia.com

I got my Swap Magic from here:

I also got the Fliptop cover for my SCPH-90001. But after dismantling my PS2 and taking the original cover off, I realized the Fliptop cover didn't even fit. -_-' (The 90000 has some -stupid- ridge. Grumble.)

Then I kinda figured out what the Fliptop cover even does
...and I realized I could just use a small screwdriver to hold down some little button in a hole near the bottom right corner. So I play Final Mix/burned games with no lid and a leaning screwdriver.



To use the patch (legally, ha!), you'll need to put Final Mix in a computer's DVD drive, then get a program (ex. ImgBurn) that can read and copy the disc's data (about 4 GB) onto your computer. Also known as ripping the disc's ISO.

On the lovely translator's blog,

(A program that applies the patch to the ISO, the patcher)
and

(The patch itself)

Then, put the ISO, patcher, and patch in the same folder on your computer. Drag the patch onto the patcher. A window will pop up and you can type in the ISO's filename (ex. KH2FM.ISO). The ISO will be modified. Into English! <3

Using a program, like ImgBurn, you can take the patched ISO and burn it onto a DVD. Hopefully your computer's DVD drive can do that.



And I/someone can explain the Swap Magical part when you get that far.

Maybe if this signature is witty enough, someone will finally love me.

I thought getting swap magic is a way to not mess with the warrenty on your playstation? To get to the sixth screw on my playstation, I have to puncture it.
