- On my trip to find stuff to restore at the local junk market, I saw this PS2 in this bad condition, I decided to restore it and give it a new chance to live again.
I was looking for a white slim PlayStation 2 console, but it was somewhat rare, and when I saw this, I was very happy to finally own a white console.
I Bought a $15 Playstation2 slim ps2! Can I Fix it? PlayStation Repair Retro
Console Restoration-ASMR
This video shows you everything you need to know about taking apart your Playstation2 slim. If you need to replace the fan or the disk drive this video will show you how to get inside and disassemble your system. Since this system isn't the newest on the market anymore, it's cheaper to replace the parts yourself than it is to send them in for repairs.

Repair & restoration of a scratched PS2 console - How to resurface Plastic
In this video, I will repair this Playstation 2 slim console This method is called resurfacing.
This video will show you how to make your yellowed PS2 look almost new again.
Coat the plastic in hydrogen peroxide to fix discoloration. Hydrogen peroxide works well on plastics that have turned entirely yellow instead of in just one spot. Fill a plastic bag with enough hydrogen peroxide to cover the plastic. Stick the plastic in the bag of hydrogen peroxide and lay it out in direct sunlight. Wait 3-4 hours before rinsing it off with clean water.[5]
You can purchase hydrogen peroxide at a drugstore or big box store.
If you’re treating some sort of plastic mechanism, make sure you remove all the parts that aren’t plastic before putting them into the hydrogen peroxide.
You can also use an old toothbrush to scrub the hydrogen peroxide onto the plastic if desired
Retrobright is a hydrogen peroxide-based process for removing yellowing from ABS plastics
The PlayStation 2 (abbreviated as PS2) is a home video game console developed and marketed by Sony Computer Entertainment.

What I really like about this channel is that he never put fake intros like walking around a vacant lot or dump site and then suddenly he would find a console or gadgets lying around in good condition. Some of you know what I'm talking about.
Thanks for sharing your opinion!
nah, its the same thing, only with the likeness of odd tinkering.
Yeah, but the junk rubbed into the top of the PS2 is a bit too dramatic compared to how blindingly white if a touch dusty it looked inside. Also, it's killing me inside how he didn't use the right size screwdriver to loosen the screws.
@@sIDsleeperman I was thinking the same thing. The overexposure does no justice to the quality of the video. Everything mashes together to the point you can see anything
But it still has that particular fakeness to it.
I Have the same PS2 White, I didn't know it was so rare
So grateful to see your videos, love them ❤️
I have ps2 Pinke
I love the just insert of downloading need for speed rom. Bold. I respect this person.
This is impressive. I absolutely love how clean the console is now. I wish someday i will be able to restoring things as good as you. Keep uploading videos please!
Also super impressive that he has Fifa 2023 for the PS2.
What a great team Barcelona had at that time.
And the restoration as always rewarding. It is pure satisfaction to see such a battered device and that at the end of the video it is like new, working with care, care and devotion. As always, great video.
Glad you enjoyed it

my father went to japan i think in 2008 and bought a white slim ps2 ❤. it is my most valuable treasure and still works. i play every now and then
This model of the Playstation 2 (PS2) was released only in japan in 2007 small numbers. It quickly became a rare item, has the units in the country were sold out in the first 2 weeks. Naturally, the unit became proportionally thought-after across the world, to become a classic collector item.
@@resEG Wow i had no idea! that makes my ps2 even more valuable 🥺
@@resEG I am not that sure about that. Japan usually had-have white consoles in offer in quite the numbers from PS2 onwards.
Europe was also filled with white PS2 through different revisions from 1st to last gen of slims.
Sure they were smaller numbers then the black ones but still wasn't that rare. I would rather say the pink is actually rare not the white and silver ones. They been re-released often as bundles, with eyetoy party games and karaoke box packs. No clue if they were ever released in USA-CA but in Europe and Japan so as Asia in general got them I know since seen plenty. Party games were popular in these regions hence why they were common in stores.
You wont find much 2nd hand since people keep them compared to other ones. I see the games pop up through years but the consoles and controllers are kept and often passed onto a friend or relative, very rarely they sell these.
I was also looking for a red one for a long time here in Europe, only seen JP versions on extremely rare occasions, however the sellers asked too much or the consoles or simply were too much broken that it was pointless to even try to repair. At one point I stopped searching. A friend also got one repaired it then chipped it but was expensive I regret not buying it back then. Was in 2012 or so.
I hate how Sony made the ps2 slim so complicated to repair you must have a specific glue for the ribbon cable
Exactly right yeah
Just use a very slim tesa doublesided tape. Works great for it.
You can order replacement laser cables preglued. Just have to remove a protective strip and it will stick right on.
but you have to credit Sony's engineers for recreating the best console into a tiny form factor.
@@studbyte I wouldn't go that far I have a bad history with the ps2 slim both 7000 and 9000 model
When it comes to all that grime and gunk dirt, I usually put things in a soapy tub and leave it in for few hours sometimes even one day, depends of the build up.
Would never waste much magic foam or waste time on rubbing cleaning right away. Those build ups need to let go 1st and that takes time to actually soak up the chemicals to kick in 1st.
That's a good idea!
Either he spent HOURS scrubbing those shell pieces, especially white, they had those awful stubborn stains on them or he did a swap. I don't buy that those are the same pieces. You saw how much of a struggle he had trying to get them out even with "magic eraser". And this was originally broken no power...we dont see the fix, what was the problem? This video unfortunately for me is missing crucial parts to make me believe otherwise. Being someone who buys a lot of consoles and cleans and restores / repairs for resale its been heavily edited.
Awesome work, once again.
I appreciate that, Thank you
I think that is brighter than when it was new.
I love your restoration videos.
Glad you like them!
Sos el REY de la restauración de consolas retro, MAESTRO!👏👏👏
¡Gracias por las palabras amables! ¡Gracias amigo! Qué tengas un lindo día.
@@resEG abrazo enorme desde Argentina!
I like how you added the sticker to make the fake dirt look more convincing
Dang, you must be a real blast to be around in person. You seem like you know so much about everything, you should start a YT channel about how everything you say is the truth and anything anyone else says is fake. Go be miserable somewhere else.
@@kev2493WAAAAHHHHH WHY ARE YOU EXPRESSING A NEGATIVE OPINION YOU SHOULD BE POSITIVE ALL THE TIME
I love your console restore video. Keep up the good work man!!
Thanks! I’m glad you like it.
Es otra ves una joya que brilla nuevamente... hermosa sin duda
great restoration
I appreciate that, Thank you
Nice work ! I see you applied glue all along the track of the lens' ribbon cable, how did you manage to glue the right length ? (enough to let the lens move but not too much so that the ribbon don't touch the disc when the lens is near the center)
He didn't he just bought an open box ps2 and showed it off like it was the one he restored, LOL
i am just impressed how that bottom sticker held up
The sound on his videos is so dam crisp it's nice and funny too.
Essas imagens aproximada enriquece muito o vídeo parabéns
Ahora toca reparar una Playstation 4 FAT, SLIM O PRO, buen video amigo.
Another man's trash is another man's treasure.
Another man’s intentionally damaged trash to that same man’s fabricated treasure.
I find it funny how I already scrolled past a restoration video for a filthy white slim PS2 with Disney stickers to arrive at this video…also of a filthy white slim PS2 with Disney stickers
Solo te falto poner al final del video el meme del hombre enojado tirando su pc a la basura, que genial video
True mastery of your craft
Wow. Nice job!
Thanks buddy!
Melhor video game de todos! =)
ótima restauração! parabéns!
Obrigado pelas amáveis palavras!
love your work.
Glad to hear it!
So what was the problem of this ps2 ? Just clean it work ?
Only thing. I would suggest, is in post production correct your color balance, and your overexposure. The white background and colors flood the screen too much and makes it hard to distinguish items.
Bardzo ładnie oczyściłeś całą konsolę. Ślicznie wygląda. Czekam na kolejne znaleziska.
I have 2 Playstation 2 slims one with power brick one with power suply inside the console
Nice one, done a fantastic restoration👍l know how much work goes into restoring a game console
NFS Most Wanted just the best NFS ever!
Nice job. Also, you can clean it with the dish washer, but you have to protect sticker with serial number
Nice job saving that white japanese slim playstation 2
Nice!!!
What Burner program did you use to burn the DVD Disc so that the PS2 reads it?
Excelente trabalho, parabéns❗👍😎
The white versions came out in the US and Canada, but what causes the confusion is that there's Pearl White, Snow White and Ceramic White with no indication as to which regions those maybe tied to, at least not on the cursory check I've done. The real finds are the Pink and Cinnabar colored ones, I guess those were LE versions and only released in Oceania/Asia.
우연히 봤는데 감탄만 나오는 영상입니다~ 대단해요!!
I like it , please do a lot of these videos ❤❤
Glad you resisted the urge to touch the spinning exposed disk. First NFSMW video looked really bad, whats up with that? Soccer appeared okay. Is the mod on the board for accepting burned disks?
yeah it has to be a mod that lets it play burned disks. idk about that quality tho, could be the burned disk version or something from the hardware, could even be the mod itself doing something to the ps2 as well. i kind of wish it was un-modded and restored fully but that kind of skill is a diff skill set.
I love the white color consoles
I would have use double sided tape it's not as hard on the cable IPA is harsh on plastic lasers are made of plastic i use a damp cotton swab water without additives is best
Qual foi o site que baixou a room de NFSMW pra este video?
What program did you use for dowliading and burning the game? Great job
O top restauration impeccable continue comme ça
Pasta térmica en cpu y era golazo! Igual se vio muy bonito.
Parabéns meu amigo pela aula de restauração e aproveito para perguntar qual o melhor ps2 slim para se comprar em 2024 ??
this slim model was the worst console. they overheating and make a lot of noise. super fragile. But, was a excelent job. congrats
Nice like the white
I love your content, I follow you from Iraq❤❤🇮🇶
*Good Job Dear Brother Restoration EG... PlayStation 2 is Life!!! Thanks for Repair this Great Console...* 😎😁😀📱💁🏻♂️📺🎥🎬🎮🕹💿📼👊✌👍
It's not retro
It's a state of art
This video reminds me of TheRelaxingEnd unboxing videos.
The problem was just clean? I dont see replace any parts...
Excelente trabalho!!! Uma dúvida... Já vi vários videos com uso do peróxido... mas uns com 200 volumes, 50%, 12%... como sei qual percentual usar???
6:04 7.3 is my mom’s birthday. In 2025 she’d be 56
Restauração muito legal
The buzzing even after being cleaned and fixed would drive me crazy.
Nice work. Though zero need to remove the ribbon cable...
Dkildies should hire this guy
Nice 👍 work
Thanks for the visit
Great video, it's great to see that ps2 working again. I like your videos but I don't know why the more I watch them, the more I see that 80% of those are a kind of copy of Odd Tinkering videos..
Glad you like them!
yep, its all just a sham, they wanted to look like odd tinkering as possible, fake damage on some consoles varying to belivable, to “taiwan dirt”, and hope he gets a ton of views
@@WahooMarioIsBack yeah right? I mean this guy made tons of video like odd tinkering, but the majority of those are only about "cleaning". There's a big difference between cleaning and restoring
Vcs não podem só assistir, de invés falar que é fake o video é pra relaxar
Why do every one of his videos have a similar patina on these consoles. It looks like they are all prepped to be “dirty” or worse than they really are.
I take it you have never cleaned a console? Even newer ones can be nasty, this console was full of roach crap, i recognise it from the dozens of cosoles ive cleaned to this detail.
Was this a modded ps2? Where did you download nfs? I have a white fat ps2 that needs cleaned
Me encantó. Una pregunta. Que página y que programa.utilizaste para descargar y quemar el juego???
Ya lo sabes?
Is the noise at 21:15 normal? If so, I didn't know slims could be so loud.
Goo Gone would have made easy work of all that gunk from the stickers without messing up the finish with the Magic Eraser.
Thank you for giving me this information
Man as soon as I saw the case I was like “there is no other choice other than magic eraser, machine polishing with car polish & UV Bleaching” cause that thing used every last ounce of willpower to survive it’s last owner apparently lol
Have a great day.
The PS2 Slim made Steven Spilberg cry...
No thermal paste?
Na época do play 2 não tinha essa de abrir para limpar e trocar pasta térmica né kkkkk começou do ps3 para cá !!!!
Damn it looks brand new
Este canal es lo máximo
Nice work! But is the CD rubbing against the plastic while spinning?
Not at all, I super glued down the ribbon cable to stop it from scratching discs
Great zooming
Love how dirty it is! Id love to clean that so satisfying! 😅
I feel everytime I clean an OLD console it tells a story, a gross story but a story none the less.
ah noooo! you forgot to retro-brite the power button!
Yes, exactly, unfortunately, I forgot it
meu deus me deu uma raiva porque ele nao desmontou o cooler pra limpar e lubrificar
the PS2 is finally fixed
Cool restoration, it's a pity that only in life electronics does not come to life from the fact that it was washed ((( at least they poked the board itself with a multimeter for the sake of decency😂😂😂
I probably have one the best slim ps2 versions because it doesn't need an external power supply, only problem is that i opened to clean it and acidentally damaged the disc reader orange flat cable R.I.P
good job
Awesome! Thanks so much!!
Sony ps2❤ white slim
Thanks for the visit
Great again
Have a great day
man forgot to find the smudge marks on the ps2, revealing that it was fake the whole time.
You spend hours restoring a PS2, only to play pirated games on it. Mad lad.
🎉🎉You are a magician
Thanks for the kind words! Thanks, buddy! Have a great day.
I wish it was that easy to repair games consoles and love the chipped ps2 unlimited games 😂
Great job. I guess Dr Duck has retired from all the videos lol
why did you smear dirt on the console?
Yeah its even more obvious when its pearl white on the inside and literally glowing white after he simply scrubs it with a sponge. Such sheep watch this and take it seriously.
¡que hermoso ese zoom extremo!
Nice vidio❤
How did the sticker survive multiple cleaning solutions and soaks and scrubs lol
Great and awesome video but if that whas my ps2 slim with that noice i whas done with playin with that console.
L'alimentatore non funzionava, non lo ha riparato né pulito..... Alla fine funziona?!? Miracolo!!
Great job but the ps2 logo harder to see now. Did a awesome job tho
Thanks for the visit
Que tipo de pegamento es?
What Kind of glue is?
