    We are working with the makers of the Nova chip to bring you an add-on chip that will do PS1 stealth for the Messiah 2 and Magic 3.1 mods.

    Samples should get to us within a couple of weeks and we will test it on the latest import copy protected games to ensure compatibility and reliability. It will also be tested along with a Gameshark so users can also use the enhancement device.

    More news to follow soon.

    I take it that this is intended to play PS1 backups of said protected games?

    Yes, that's what it will do!

    Games like:

    Japanese PS1 DDR whatever mix
    Dino Crisis U\C NTSC
    Strider U\C NTSC
    And other copy protected titles

    I don't think it's needed with the messiah 2. I have some psx mod protected game such as Dino Crisis and Resident Evil 3 and they both will work on my ps2. The red magic 2 that I had installed in my ps2 would'nt load either of these games. I have discussed this in these forums before.

    Yea, i'm pretty sure that chips like messiah 2, and stuff do take off the protection on ps1 games...
    Resident Evil Survivor i'm not sure what kind of protection was on it, but I couldn't get that damn backup to play on my reg ps1 for nothing! Maybe it detected my plugmod? Worked fine with Bleem on the computer tho.

    What mod chip do you currently have in your ps2 and if it's a messiah 2 does Resident Evil Survior work on it?

    I got a Messiah 2...But I aint got it with me right now (getting fixed). Whenever I first got a ps2 (like a year and a half ago) I had a neo 2.2....I don't beleive that RE Survivor would work on it (think I tried once, but can't really remember), I got a magic 3.1 put in it, and the laser finally died on me...Then got a new messiah 2. I never really tried RE Survivor with Messiah 2, or Magic 3.1...Since obviously it's a crappy ps1 game .
    But still i'm not sure what kind of protection it had on it. I tried to patch it whenever I had my old ps1, but still that shit didn't work. Told me to call Sony, or something like that.

    Well, protected games from the same region of the console will boot as long as you disable the mod, but original imports from other regions, like Jap DDR will boot with the mod on.

    Are you sure your games are not patched Dew-It? I have an original Dino Crisis, and I get the software terminated message each time I boot it using the PSx mode of the Messiah 2.

    If it is cheap and will let me play Beatmania 6th Mix + Core Remix(released Jan '02), then I'll buy it.
