Official Import Thread
Note: From now on, all other threads about imported games will be closed. If you have any questions about your imported KH2, TV-sets, swap magic disks, etc, please post them here, so that other members of KHI can answer them.
For now, I will only give a short summary of the things you need to play an imported game from the US, on your European PS2. This first post will roughly explain what you will need to do to play an imported game on your own PS2. It will make sure the members with questions know where to go if they want advice, rather than checking multiple threads in the KH2 section.

Swap Magic Disk
The best and easiest way to play an imported game from the US on your European PS2, is by using a Swap magic disk. This is a small set which is available at most of the bigger game stores in pretty much all of Europe. If you can't find it in any of your local stores, you can also go to eBay for it. eBay has several domains, most European countries have their own eBay domain, such as; www.ebay.co.uk (UK), www.ebay.nl (Netherlands), www.ebay.de (Germany), www.ebay.fr (France), and so on.
Swap Magic Disk is completely legal and will not result in your PS2 losing its warranty, unlike the infamous way of modding your PS2 by using a modchip.
