A forum post at afterdawn.com has a detailed step by step tutorial on how to create a swap switch to boot ps2 backup games.
I wanted a fairly easy way to play my PS2 backups on my PS3. I have read that you can do it by taking apart your PS3 and cutting a hole in the top and yadayada. Leaving the top off of my PS3 to play PS2 backups didn’t sound attractive to me. So i searched around and found a forum for PS2 talking about a tray switch for the fat PS2’s back in the day.
This is similar to the PS3 Swap Magic Hack hack found in our own forums
Comments (24)2 quick notes.
#1 swap magic is not needed at all unless you need to convert pal video to ntsc
#2 works with any firmware so far (untested 1.54)
What?
This does not mak any sense!!
We just need an ISO Loader so we can play PS1, PS2, PS3 backup games.
Am I right PEOPLE!!!
yes you are right RiZon
That’s why I keep my Ps2 to play all my PS2 back-ups….I’m not taking apart my PS3!
thats right the big deal here is the ISO LOADER scene but not now because sony is loosing the battle of 3 gen maybe in 2008 ps3 will put the others consoles feel like a game boy near her because the most stupid thing i heard is the comparation betwen ps3 and wii in my opinion the only reason why wii sells more than ps3 its beacuse the babys love it… but the fact is the truth gamers im sure they prefer ps3 with any doubt…
one more thing im 28 years old and im a gamer since my 12yrs old and i can tell anyone there i never feel so much pleasure in games like the hours i spent playing in my ps3 so thank you sony to show the world how human brains are so powerfull
Wow…..You also have a very strong command of the English language at 28 years old…..”im a gamer since my 12yrs old and i can tell anyone there i never feel so much pleasure in games like the hours i spent”…..WTF?! You are making non sense in this world that you play in your ps3 to show the world how human brains are so powerfull, more powerfull than the animals that have brain. Stupid spic.
I dont like this because it still requires me to do open heart surgery on my $650 baby….. I refuse to experiment with something so precious….. I already have a modded Ps2 Anyways…. At least its a start.. 1st Ps2 backups… Then Ps3 not bad….
Keep cool people. Don’t wreck your PS3!I’m sure that ISO LOADER comes soon!!!!
that won’t be out for ages. paradox r ful of shit
yo shut da hell up i bet u paradox already got a iso loader dey jus dont want to bring it out cuz mad ppl tlkin mad shit bout dem, an if u was smart enough y dont u make one u dum fuk
lol, that was the most ignorant crap I have ever heard tapdisbong. a programmer that doesnt want to share his ideas with people. yes, it happens all the time. I’m sure paradox has created the time machine as well, but since everyone says they can’t exist because they would create a “time paradox” then paradox hasn’t shown it to us yet. You are an idiot…
Anyways… ISO loader or swapping crap… hows about we keep the search on this and stop being idiots… Can I get an amen here?!
Take apart my $600 PS3 are they fucking nuts?
nobody want to take there shit apart cuz it so much money u can jus mod a ps2 or buy one an mod it fo lik 100$
We all need an ISO loader, but I’m afraid it’s gonna take a while! Common’ you nerds, spend your luchmoney and screw up some PS3’s to please us!
I cant believe it – GREAT. this even loads ps3 backups. now i need to make it load from h/d. Thanks very much!
PS3 will soon be the greatest console just like ps2 was the best previously.
What the hell u talking about, it don’t load PS3 backups.
It does work with ps3 backups BUT the backup has to be on disk (and the disks are about £10 each :-( )

This one does :D
Oh, geez, sorry, it’s the same topic :D
Does anybody already burned PS3 backups on Discs? Dual Layer Disc? I Think that the Iso Loader will be ready by the end of the year.
u all sound like uv run out of dope,i hope to god for an iso loader but u all chatin shit…
Dont you people relize that a ISO loader is worthless, Sony will just put updates on all the new games so you cant play the game unless you update. So Paradox need to go on vacation like they have been since dec 2006…….
