So over thanksgiving dinner I find out that my cousin, who had gotten married at the beginning of the month, now has two ps2s, his and his wife's. He offers me the extra one and a Mem Card for $50 so of course I'm on that like Patrick Stewart on a voice over.

Here's my question. He didn't have the cables for the system with him at the time, as I didn't have the cash I just took the system and I'll pay him when I get the cables. Can I use my PS1 power and AV cables for the ps2? I know everything else is backwards compatible but I get nervous when it comes to plugging a power cord somewhere it doesn't belong.


BTW: Went to best buy today, picked up:

R&C 2
Ace Combat 4
HSG 3
Katamari Damacy

Umm yeah... I belive so.. I used my old ps1 cords on my ps2.. But I'll double check again..


*runs upstairs to check*



Umm yep.. give it a whirl.

Have fun with RC2

if they fit then yes. cuz the converter box is in the console itself rather then the wire so its not going to matter.

i believe Xbox, PS2, PS1, Dreamcast all use the exact same power cord.

PS1/2 have a round port and a square port.

Xbox is two round ports.

I've shaved a DC cable to fit an X-Box. Anything can be done with a boxcutter nowadays.
