"Multi-tap"

Has anyone seen an official multi-tap for the original PS2? Also, does the slimline designed multi-tap really not work with the original PS2? If not why not?

Yep only a couple of days ago.

I know that the normal multi-tap doesn't work with the slimline as I tried it at a mates house but I am not sure if the slimline one works with the normal PS2.My guess is it doesn't.

There was an original PS2 'tap years ago. I didnt know there was a new "slim" version. Just get an old one = problem solved.

Yep saw one in... CEX (Computer EXchange)

However, hard to get hold of (*new) but the Joytech one SR sells is class. Actually, I've got one in the cabinet behind me, through the tinted black glass.

Aye, fear the glass.

*cowers*
It's so mysterious!

So this Joytech multitap... does if work on new and old PS2's?

Nope, just old.

Tinted glass.

Nah, they're incompatible with each other; the right multitap version must be bought for your console.

Sony are great at milking everything. But no more for the PS3.

It does say its "Compatible with previous Playstation 2 models via seperate cable." Wonder if that means the new ones come with them. Doubt it though...
