Hey guys, im sorry for the topic...and im expecting to hear that I should have just searched on my own to get these answers but im having no luck what so ever..
Basically I know I need a game (pop'n 9 for me) a controller (gonna start with a stock konami one) and the Flip Top Mod (for normal old PS2s)
Here are my questions.
-I've seen different flip top mods, can I get a link to the exact one I need...unfortunately Im not near my PS2 (a state away) and I don't know if I would need the 8 or 10...I got the PS2 when they first came out if that helps.
-Can I still play English games with the FTM?
-Where should I buy the controller...I think playasia.com is all out
Thats all I think for now...thanks in advance ^_^

There are guides online to tell you what version your PS2 is so you know what type of fliptop you need to buy. Quote:

If you want an ASC (arcade style controller), then you have 4 choices. You can get the Konami one on Play-Asia (the large green one), or one of 3 custombuilt ones from Ransai, Desktop Arcade, or DJ Dao (All 3 have respective threads stickied at the top of this forum).
EDIT: Except Ransai. Go to www.ransai.com for them. | |

If you bought the ps2 when it first game out, it is more than likely 10 screws. | |

You should check the ps2, as there are so many versions.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you can. I'd also check the serial number in case. I remembered sending back our PS2 and I wasn't entriely sure if it got replaced with a newer version...but that's just me.
Anyways a bit off topic, but I just ordered a fliptop and Pop'n Music 12 recently and I'm just wondering. Would I need to remove the fliptop everytime I want to play American games?

Your PS2 will work exactly as it did before, you just gain the ability to "trick" your PS2 so you can play imports.

The reason I got 12 was because I played Pop'n Music you guys provded for the first time at AnimeNEXT this summer. (missed it last year to IIDX) Seriously, completed my life in a way. ^_^ | |

They're probably just back-ordered from a Christmas rush, so not much longer. (:
