A new manufacturer has stepped up to the plate and is now producing Translucent Flip-Top Covers. They are being sold for $19.99US currently from www.firefly-hk.com, and additional information on them is available at www.magiccase.com.

We will be heavily promoting these new covers in the coming weeks as our affiliates' Web sites are set up to sell them, and plan to offer additional discounts on Swap Magic COMBOs with the Translucent Flip-Top Covers! THANK$ for helping us promote the easiest, most economical, and BEST PS2 modification on the market to date Faizu

My Pleasure Z, just as long as your losing money

he wants to make everyone think they are with him. If you knew who came up with the flip top clone idea then you would understand.

Cool. I've been looking for a new case to brighten up my PS2. I might just get one of these just because it's translucent. If they have a different color (other than smoke) I might add a neon light or LED light's inside to make it glow.

Anyone familiar with electronics know if installing LED's similiar to the one's below is detrimental to the PS2?

i can assure you the magic case isnt in anyway related to Z, if they want to promote MC then there just cutting there own throats.

Btw thanks guchi for the support and help in the past, keep cool.

Is there any disadvantages to using flip top cover?

I read the site and it says no soldering required and it plays all
cd/dvd backups. This sounds to good to be true, whats the catch?

Why go through all the hassle of buying an expensive modchip and soldering if this has the same result with only 5 min installation.

Is this thing for real?
Does it boot games in 1 shot?

nothing really beats a mod, dms3 looks the part but i guess its good if you cant solder.

It doesn't boot everything. Solder mods are better (why else would we go through the trouble)?

Check out this thread and you'll see that Swap Magic doesn't play many of Kal's releases, and probably won't anytime in the near future...

**nivek_k2020** · 03-15-2003,12:31 PM

But does it really boot all cd/dvd backups without any problem?

Because I had a swap chip and it took me sometimes 3 tries to boot a CD and it couldn't boot dvdr

thanks i'll check the link

**usafa92** · 03-15-2003,12:47 PM

Not having actually used swapmagic, I can't speak from experience. But I have read that folks have problems with certain games due to TOC sizes.

Suggest you search the forums...
