It's a method whereby you pay someone to damage your PS2.

Amazing, isn't it?

It is a piece of crap wanna be mod. Get a real mod such as a Messiah 2, DMS3, Duo, Apple Pro, Magic V, or Smartchip.

Swap Magic is also used when you have a "no solder" mod chip, as I do. Unless you have a 39000x version you can use gameshark, but if you do, then Magic Swap is what you need. If you can, I would suggest going for a "real" modchip like messiah, etc. But if you can't solder and can't find someone to, like me, no solder with swap magic works.

Only because the owner will ban anyone who talks dirt about that piece of crap flip top or swap magic. I hate Z or whatever he calls himself now.

Swap magic are boot disc that are used to load backups, Swap magic disc along with Z's Flip top tolet lid or a no solder mod will boot some backups but not all.No-swap chips are CHEAP, you would have to be a idiot to buy this crap, or as one of our moderators saysGHETTO!!
