I have swap magic 3 for my ps 2 slim and its been working great for imports! I havent had a problem and have had it for a couple years, super easy. install the new lid which opens differently so the spring is always down, and swap the game when it says to, takes 2 seconds!

I will pick it up for sure ;-) I'm just waiting to find a preferably new copy on ebay - they only show up from time to time and not alway at an affordable price.

Another great thing about SM3 is how it can load elfs from a usb drive.

Off-topic bump: When I said the Wipeout Pulse PS2 port wasn't bad, I didn't actually know just how bad it was. In addition to terrible framerate, it also corrupts memory cards.

So anyone playing it still might want to look into that.
