Their compatibility list notes 75.33% are Playable, 22.93% can go in-game but not be finished and only 1.69% can’t get past the intro.

I only have one because I always wanted to have all 7th gen consoles back in the day but could only have one.
The fat PS3 was a great deal because it could run Linux and natively play PS2 games as well. I haven’t been into consoles since the fat PS3, they have all gotten worse and worse IMO. I did buy a Steam Deck and really like it, if that counts as a console.
Unfortunately not all the fats could run PS2 games, only the CECHAxx and CECHBxx (NTSC) had the hardware to run PS2 games. The early PAL models (CECHCxx and CECHExx) had software emulation apparently, dunno if it was any good. I hunted down a fat model specifically because I wanted the backwards compatibility, can’t remember which model I ended up buying, but it was not a backwards compatible one. Very disappointed at the time, but I was still sad when it died.
Also the possiblity to dualboot Linux was patched out pretty quickly if I remember correctly, people were pretty peeved about it.
Hmm I wonder if mine is that old. I got it used from a friend that also got it used back in the day. I never even tried sticking one of my PS2 games in it.
If it has a shitton of ports in the front, USB and SD card and all sorts of stuff, there’s a good chance. If it only has 2 USB ports, probably not.
Doh, no such luck for me. Oh well, I still have my PS2 lol.
I got a slim
7th gen specifically? Any reason why?
What I grew up with. Nostalgia is a helluva drug.
Totally fair!
