    Default NTSC to PAL.

    another attempt at finding a way to play FFT.

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PAL-to-NTSC-TV...em290040958419

    it says it changes NTSC to PAL for TV, PS2's and X-boxes.

    would it work for a PS1 game being played on a PS2?

    im pretty useless with this type of stuff. i think it'll work but confirmation from some people who are better at this than me would be appreciated.

    yeah. its just i cant really be too careful.

    it says it works for PS2 games so i guess it would work for an NTSC PS1 game running on a PAL PS2. im just uncertain. seems almost too good to be true.

    EDIT: well i've thought about it and i see no reason why it wont work.

    wait a second. by PAL to NTSC does it mean, PAL games to NTSC console or NTSC game to PAL console.

    i need it to make an NTSC game work for a PAL console

    Since you have a european PS2, putting a NTSC game in and playing it makes the PS2 output PAL60, which is PAL at 60 Hz frequency. Your problem is that your TV is too old/low quality* and doesn't support 60 Hz, and no adapter will help. You <i>need</i> a TV/monitor that is PAL60 compatible to see the colors.

    *(my brother still uses our 16 year old 14" TV set that supports 60Hz)

    And then there is Death

    Just for the record, this device converts the signal only. Also, it is a PAL to NTSC converter, meaning you put in a European game in, and it converts the output to an NTSC signal; what you want is an NTSC to PAL converter.

    If your PS2 is not chipped/swap disc'd, the game will not play at all, since it's a PAL console and an NTSC game. The converter deals with incompatibilities between the PS2 and the TV.
