Hey, thanks for your comment! Based on the article and your enthusiasm for tech, I think you might find the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule interesting. It's a versatile tool that offers powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities, perfect for maintaining a spotless desktop, cleaning your car's interior, and even inflating items quickly. It has some great features and seems reasonably priced compared to other brands. Definitely worth considering for your cleaning routine!

Me too, i'm remember that christmast when i recieved my PS2 i was 11 years old, also i'd to say i already had a XBOX classic AND a PSOne, how memories, how feelings, that never come back :'c
I’m 18 and no joke as a kid there was this sonic game that I use to play where you could play as sonic or either shadow and just hearing the theme of the ps2 made me feel extremely old
That's right, nathantron: The PS2 (PlayStation 2) was absolutely *pretty simple, yet exceptionally complex kind of console* back on its time right then...🎮
Ah PS2 the best of my teenage years. A huge game changer for PlayStation, loved playing Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty on it. There weren't any UA-cam tutorials for it back in 2003, if you got stuck on a mission it would trial and error but truly felt like a lifetime accomplishment when you did it by yourself.
The PS2 “there is no disc” with the red color and spooky sounds was so terrifying as a kid. For one, it’s spooky. For second, you fear that your game is dead.
@@subagaming2075 Having your game or console be potentially broken wasn't scary to you as a kid? It made me muster up all the hot breath I could along with precise disc rubbing techniques to give my games a fighting chance again. I was so happy when I got a ps3 since blurays were dam near indestructible under normal use. Sometimes I can't believe how far we've came.
I agree, the PS2 came out during my final year of medical school. I couldn’t wait to get one, the Madden game looked amazing at the time. I waited in line at Best Buy on a Saturday morning and rushed in and grabbed it....got back to my apartment and called up my college buddies and we wore that damn thing out the whole weekend....damn, those were the days!
@Felipe Gomesis someone mad they didn’t get a ps2 for Christmas when they asked Santa real nicely? ;) Jokes man, but that seem objectively not true based off of pixel counts alone. Which PlayStation do you prefer, or do you not like the console series at all?

There is nothing more satisfying then watching his videos not only because it's entertaining to watch him take consoles apart and clean them but at the end he makes them playable again. Restores their physical appearance and mechanical conditions

I’m seriously debating buying one of these again. It’s the most fun I’ve ever had when I was a kid. I’d love to play all those games again on this console
It’s fairly easy 😁 I took apart my slim yesterday to do the clock battery, with no prior experience doing it or help and it took about 30-40 min with two screw drivers and some patience it’s easy. Just be careful to know where each screw goes cuz there’s a lot of them

As an gamer with lots of skills o can say two things: One: I've putted some cool sounds in my pc and that red screen sound is one of them Two: Who doesn't have the ps2 in 2021 only freaks
I still remember walking into a Toys R' Us like 15-20 years ago and seeing Ratchet And Clank being played for the first time. What a fantastic console the PS2 was.
Yeah Rachet and Clank first game the whole reason i bought a PS2 hidden from my father i didn't have a memory card though and i was playing till 6th planet over and over for like a summer
I loved it too, but the truth is that it was only good because of the third party support it got that outmatched it's competitors. It was actually the weakest console of it's generation by quite a margin. Playing something like GTA3 on Xbox vs PS2 and it was night and day.
17:07 You bent the pins that would hold the battery in place, the pins are supposed to clasp over the top. When you took the old battery out, you pulled them aside.
This guy is literally at genius level. To be able to remember all these intricate details for all the different things he fixes, is simply astonishing. As LockPick Lawyer is to locks, this guy is to consoles. *SUBSCRIBED*
Woah buddy calm down , I see you’re getting wet just by seeing him work , I think that’s just because he has experience with working with consoles dummy now sit you’re ass down please
You’re awesome for restoring these old consoles. These old video games were a huge part of our culture growing up and it makes me happy to see it preserved.
I’m very glad my PS2 is still working perfectly. I have an original and while I don’t use it often, it comforts me in some weird way to know it is okay.
The best part of this aside from how clean the ps2 gets is the new label being an exact replica as the old down to the SKU! Nuts! I'm using your two year video for inspiration as I'm currently restoring a ceramic white CECH-2500B using similar methods. I just don't have the ability to print labels and haven't been able to source white ones either.
That sticker gave the console more character and history any RPG player character would dream of I felt sad that it wasn't applied back too, like the thing was stripped of everything it had to become "brand new"
@@xstonybolognax same! And I am still playing on it over 10 years of usage. The time battery doesn't work anymore tough. Maybe it's because the console is old. Other than that it works like new and doesn't make any noise.
Jak and Daxter saga is one of my fave of all time!! I spent so much time on my PS2 slim thanks to them that it made me feel nostalgic when you inserted the disc
@@rasmasinternational4487 i found em all. Took over 2 weeks of game play but afterwards, i could completely beat it in under 23 hrs, 101 power cells. 😩
Things like this make me appreciate just how much effort goes into making one of these. And there were millions of them! I hope whoever builds them are raking in piles of cash. They've more than earned it.
The knowledge that you need to know what to do with every little small piece is incredible. It's like remembering every step on some complex Lego manual.

That red screen sound sent a chill down my spine, fear I haven’t felt in 18 years
As an gamer with lots of skills o can say two things:
One:
I've putted some cool sounds in my pc and that red screen sound is one of them
Two:
Who doesn't have the ps2 in 2021 only freaks
I was thinking exactly this what a sound you definitely know somethings wrong hearing that howler.
Lmfao shit used to scare me when I was home alone as a kid
@@Fereiro1410 Yeah I don't know why anyone into video games wouldn't have a PS2.
I still remember walking into a Toys R' Us like 15-20 years ago and seeing Ratchet And Clank being played for the first time. What a fantastic console the PS2 was.
Yeah Rachet and Clank first game the whole reason i bought a PS2 hidden from my father i didn't have a memory card though and i was playing till 6th planet over and over for like a summer
I loved it too, but the truth is that it was only good because of the third party support it got that outmatched it's competitors. It was actually the weakest console of it's generation by quite a margin. Playing something like GTA3 on Xbox vs PS2 and it was night and day.
There were like a million games on that console it was great!!!
My son has a ps2 and it was his aunts when she was a little and it's in good shape
@@crackerjaxz06 that’s crazy those things are dinosaurs now
“A little dirty but at least it has a Nemo sticker” best thing you could’ve said.
Here’s to positivity 😂
He actually could've cleaned the sticker or at least made another one and put it back to place, would be wonderful.
😂💯
HE KILLED NEMO :C
@@arunasgelmanas3175 lmao I thought he was gonna do that
no one can deny nemo sticker
Thank you for making these Educational and Relaxing Videos.
That red screen of death gave me nightmares as a kid, all I wanted was to play Vice City, not fall through the depths of hell.
Imao
I was not born in the ps2 era but honestly I think it is not that scary
@@rupunzell19 it is, when you have no other source of entertainment at home!
@@hamkhat I'm sure if you had a ps2 you had board games, playing cards and a few VCR movies for entertainment
@@rupunzell19 and you not being born in the era is why it isn't scary to you lol.. irrelevant af
That peel showing the original color is sooooo satisfying...
It gives me a hard one uwu
Yo I miss these

The owner after PS2's restoration: "Where's Nemo?"
😂😂😂
Finding nemo
Lol
Finding Nemo three: return of the ps2
He wont give it back, he literally bought it
17:07 You bent the pins that would hold the battery in place, the pins are supposed to clasp over the top. When you took the old battery out, you pulled them aside.
This guy is literally at genius level. To be able to remember all these intricate details for all the different things he fixes, is simply astonishing. As LockPick Lawyer is to locks, this guy is to consoles. *SUBSCRIBED*
Well then, greekgod41:
And in fact, *I've been subscribed to the Odd Tinkering's channel* right now...🔔
Woah buddy calm down , I see you’re getting wet just by seeing him work , I think that’s just because he has experience with working with consoles dummy now sit you’re ass down please
How does he even remember how to reassemble it?
I ask you guys to follow Dr Zakir Nike❤
@@kumar8837 photos are your best friend, and notes i would guess
Nearly cried because of the start up sound bringing back memories
I know man, the good old PS2 days
Same here man, start up sound made me flash back to my PS2
Imagine watching this and realizing it's your old playstation from childhood... Because of that Nemo sticker
wait seriously
ummm that looks alot like the one I had wtf
Ps5 is better
@@derwastl Who asked?
@@Silxnt_- Hey, what's up?
The care you show to these old and neglected consoles, giving them a new lease of life is really wholesome.
I was so relaxed while watching this when suddently AFK ARENA PLAY NOW FOR FREEEEE!!! Man it almost got me a hearth attack lol
@DeeJay JayDee 😂😂 i meant heart
Avocados from mexico nahhhhhhh tech lenus tips yeeee
@@MpatsaiXaroun nice

the red screen of death is as horrifying as the minecraft cave sounds are creepy
You’re awesome for restoring these old consoles. These old video games were a huge part of our culture growing up and it makes me happy to see it preserved.

What a classic way to end the vid playing Jak and Daxter, love to see it!
The nemo sticker was the unsung hero of this story
Yes

No jokes mate, you’re like a fairy giving an other chance to these consoles
I’m very glad my PS2 is still working perfectly. I have an original and while I don’t use it often, it comforts me in some weird way to know it is okay.

Same, mine was the first console I ever played with. Had it since I was in diapers, and still use it every now and then.
@@atpstorages6917 nemo
I just need a PS2 controller for mine 🙁
There goin up in prices
Nice job! You gave that PS2 the care that it deserved
Damn can't believe PS2 is considered as retro now. I feel old lmao
same bro, i really feel like PS3 is still awesome console, but when i remeber PS5 was realeased last year i start to feel pretty old
Hardout 😂😂🤣🤣
Hell I was born February 2005 and seeing the PS2, DS, and Wii ALL make me feel old as hell.
@@SpongeyBubby you're 15-16.... No where near old
Frr😭that startup noise tho omg childhood
red screen: *appears*
me having flashback: NO, STOP IT ALREADY
Ugh, the red screen. Definitely don't miss that as a kid. Creeped me out.
I still play with my PS2, kinda scares me. NBA2K7 I will never forget u
Well, my Xbox 360 is broken, there's not even the red ring of death lol
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE😭😭
@@W11-o2y could you explain to me what that is ? I use a switch but I’m curious
Me too, that sound traumatised me haha
The best part of this aside from how clean the ps2 gets is the new label being an exact replica as the old down to the SKU! Nuts! I'm using your two year video for inspiration as I'm currently restoring a ceramic white CECH-2500B using similar methods. I just don't have the ability to print labels and haven't been able to source white ones either.
I was kinda hoping when he was done he would re stick the Nemo sticker
Me too bud, me too
Same.
I wanted him put a new one on
Damn he doesn’t
Same, man
i like how he's more sensitive with the Nemo sticker than the waranty sticker
At least he put the warranty sticker back
Because Nemo is *Very Very* important
@@seanwright5867 if he can repair a ps2 back to working condition then he doesnt really need the warranty sticker
if he can repair it himself back to working order then you dont really need a warranty and i doubt that warranty is even still active
@@bossaurayt3567 no just no 🤦🏻♂️
I was really hoping he’d reapply a fresh Nemo sticker at the end
Same :(
😂
same, it will be perfect
That sticker gave the console more character and history any RPG player character would dream of
I felt sad that it wasn't applied back too, like the thing was stripped of everything it had to become "brand new"
That would've been epic. 💯
These videos are incredibly satisfying
Seeing the Nemo sticker lets me know there was a time when this PS2 was loved
“You may know the anatomy of a human being, but do you know the anatomy of a PS2 slim?”
Me,who has used a ps2 since i can talk: Nope.
As a person that still owns a ps2 slim and plays it, no.
@@xstonybolognax same! And I am still playing on it over 10 years of usage.
The time battery doesn't work anymore tough. Maybe it's because the console is old. Other than that it works like new and doesn't make any noise.
I know the anatomy of a ps2 fat, the og ps1 and the ps3 super slim
@@febfreeze831 nice!
That red screen of death triggered my PTSD
Fuck I know right!?!
@@rainbowflowerpower4464 that shit scared the fuck out of me as a kid
Don't you mean your PSTSD?
I fear no man, but that thing.... It scares me
@@whiterabbit75 yeah that screen alone forced me to get a xbox 360 years later
This is amazing! I love the way you restore it, to much dedication, I love retro games.
I think everyone was like “it’s about a damn time you had a look at this bad boy” myself included. Awesome to see you fixing things!
Kinda sad that Ducktor didn't get introduced this video or even get his own little close up :(
Justice for Ducktor!
🦆
No wonder Ducktor is sulking in the corner the whole time :(
Maybe Ductor is upset with ODD
Is upset because Olaf appears
0:57 as a kid that was everyone’s nightmare
I'm 24 and it still gives me the worst chills
Most of us weren't kids anymore..
@@MegaDrain i never even had a playstation and i have chills
Literally tho
@@MegaDrain 28 and I had to take a breather after I heard the sound
Jak and Daxter saga is one of my fave of all time!! I spent so much time on my PS2 slim thanks to them that it made me feel nostalgic when you inserted the disc
I wish this guy could restore my life.
Underrated comment
😢😢😢
Mood
Same here
Bruh, that was deep.
I love how he's more careful with the Nemo sticker than with the warranty sticker.
Priorities
nemo sticker
The sticker was more difficult to take out.
Duhhhh of course, We don’t want to get memo hurt like when he got lost 🙄
Professionals have standards
"The sticker doesn't look good anymore so I re-created it with the same serial number" - what a f*cking legend
i read this halfway through the vid so i thought you meant he recreated the nemo sticker LMAO
What about the NEMO STICKER?!
@@tenchellahenrique3516 nemo restoration video when
So nostalgic! I have all xbox rn but I started with a ps2 because of my uncle. So much memories
The nostalgia I felt when I saw you try a clean copy of Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy.
Bro when I had the ps2 version I never finished that game, was too hard to find them energy pills. Took it back with Pcsx2 and got so much nostalgia
Same here! I had all of them including the psp versions and the racinng cars also! PS2 the precursos legacy best one so far
The best game ever!
If there were ever a game I wouldn't mind being trapped in forever that's the one.
@@rasmasinternational4487 i found em all. Took over 2 weeks of game play but afterwards, i could completely beat it in under 23 hrs, 101 power cells. 😩
Dude, when you removed that fucken Nemo sticker, I felt the same sense of “cleaning” like in Toy Story 2, when the toy repairman cleans Woody lmaoo
This comment is gonna blow up
Already said
Same
He should have added a new one.
Do you play pubgm?
That screen of death was the most ominous noise I’ve ever heard lol
It’s kinda spooky ngl
I used to have a ps2 and I got that screen often
Pretty sure I hated the Ps2 OS as a kid for exactly that reason.
It just feels so incredibly unwelcoming. Games were good tho
I used to hear that when i was like 6 and i was SCARED
It wasn’t and boy did we go off lmao 🤣 worry I
Imagine the kid who owned this ps2 seeing this again with his Nemo sticker
Haha
I think he's not a kid anymore :v
Unless he used it Because he couldn't get a ps4 but got one and gave away the PS2 and trashed it
@@muzan7606 i'm 10 but before I got my PS4 I had to use the PS3
I had no Wi-Fi for it
One day early 2000s some kids played their ps2 one last time without realizing it would be the last.
Oh my god. You are right
I sold all my old consoles and honestly sitting here at 21 I’m a fool

Things like this make me appreciate just how much effort goes into making one of these. And there were millions of them! I hope whoever builds them are raking in piles of cash. They've more than earned it.
The knowledge that you need to know what to do with every little small piece is incredible. It's like remembering every step on some complex Lego manual.
