"Can My PS2 Fly?"

I've decided in my youthful impulsivness (sp?) that i cannot keep on living in this hell hole known as England and decided to move to Canada hopefully for a better life (stop cheering you lot, i might be back some day :-p)
Anyway i'd much rather take my PS2 with me over there rather then sell it so i'd like to know 3 things.

1) Will i actually be allowed by the authorities to transport it over there with me and will they bust me on the fact it's chipped (is there a way to tell from outside?)

2) does it exceed any weight limitations? (taking into account it'll have about 40 games going along with it)

3) I won't be able to use the plug that comes with it will I? due to different power outputs used over in Canada so will i be able just to use a playstation 2 lead i buy in canada with my PS2 or will i have to get a Universal Adapter to get it to work and not blow up?

So Nath, which person are you again?????

Wehey, phoneyness.

I'm going to St Catharines, Ontario. Do you know about it? Is it a good place to live?

Sure if you pay for yourself. I can barely afford it for myself i'm not taking anyone else even if they are a United fan :D

Scart cable should fix that though right? Plus most of my games are NTSC anyway

Canada, nothing wrong with Canada, very cheap - infact it's actually cheaper than the US and that's cheap!!

Lots more room, very very beautiful landscapes unless your in the middle where it's flat and err boring :)

Oh and they've also got the biggest shopping centre in the world in Edmington (sp) I've been there :)

Damn cool place, where abouts in Canada Nath?

Why would anyone want to move to Canada???

I mean... uh, hope you have a good time. :-D

Nah shouldn't be a problem, just wrap it up warm :)

P.S. Can I come to Canada with you?

It may be picked up during the detection through the airport (Bleep bleep). I don't know whether that is a problem or not though. I thought by the posts title you were going to chuck it out a window or something? :P

I've run my PAL PS2 off the step down transformer I use for my Japanese PS2 and it worked fine on the lower voltage.

I think you will have trouble with TVs that aren't compatible with PAL though.
