How To Play Ps2 Slim For ps1 games
Yes, you can play PS1 games on any PlayStation Model as long as the system matches up with region coding of the PS1 game (NTSC, PAL, etc.), however, some games will not work. In most cases, incompatible games will be games that require use of the link cable for multiplayer. The single player mode will work, though.
There are also certain games that Sony claims will not work in any model of the PS2. These are…
- Arcade Party Pak
- Arcade’s Greatest Hits/Atari 2
- Fighter Maker
- Final Fantasy Anthology (Occasional graphic glitches on save/load screen in Final Fantasy V, no issues in Final Fantasy VI; this glitch was fixed in the green label Greatest Hits version)
- Monkey Hero
- Tomba! (Contrary to popular belief, Tomba does work on the Playstation 2. However, you must allow the intro sequence to play for the game to start up properly.)
- X2 (Glitches in menus)
- Mortal Kombat Trilogy (The game will only freeze on a PlayStation 2 if the “BUY IN SCREEN” option is set to “OFF”.)
There are also games that are incompatible only with the SCPH-30001. These are…
- The Legend of Dragoon
- Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions
- Final Fantasy Tactics
- “Destruction Derby Raw” (Game does not recognize memory card. Occasional audio stutters and system hang ups.)
- “Destruction Derby” (Game does not recognize memory card.)
- “Krazy Ivan” (Game does not recognize memory card.)
