My seven year old son is a HUGE naruto fan and has convinced me to purchase a Naruto game from an EBAY merchant in Hong Kong. I failed to read the game requirements...I need an NTSC-J version of PS2. Is there a way to convert the PS2 to play the Japanese PS2 game?

you have to do a mod to bypass the region code of the disk, you can hard mod with a modchip that will play everything from everywhere even copies, or you can soft mod with swap magic, which isn't as fool proof as a chip (it has allot of disadvantages) but people who do not have the ability to install a chip or pay someone to do it fall on this as their only hope.
