Jeff W Posted February 21, 2004 Report Share Posted February 21, 2004 Just curious if anyone knows whether or not the official Sony dvd remote's for the new version PS2's are out yet, so far the only info I've been able to find is the model number, SCPH 10170. I've been searching around, even checked e-bay and nothing came up, any info is appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Daisy Posted February 21, 2004 Report Share Posted February 21, 2004 I was curious about this as well. I got the new Progressive Scan PS2 console a few months back, but never heard anything about the new remote. Not that I would even use it for it, but was just curious.

Graeme Posted February 21, 2004 Report Share Posted February 21, 2004 We've had nothing but remotes for the new model at work since before Christmas. As far as I can tell it's it's same remote but without the IR receiver now.... but I haven't looked all that closely at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff W Posted February 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 Supposedly it has a power button on it now as well, thanks for the info though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 I'll take a look tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camp Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 Yea, they're out. They do have the power button on top too. I think there are one or two other minor button changes too. One note to owners of non-progressive PS2's: the new remote (the one with the power button) will not work with your unit. Look for the non-power button version.

The Daisy Posted February 23, 2004 Report Share Posted February 23, 2004 I looked at Best Buy yesterday and couldn't track down the new one. I get a free remote with the progressive scan PS2 I purchased, and wouldn't mind having the new remote for it. Just being able to turn the system on from my couch would be a nice thing.

adamsappel Posted February 23, 2004 Report Share Posted February 23, 2004 I thought the PS2 used a standard RCA code. Can't you just use your universal remote (we all have a universal remote, right?)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the Xbox uses a standard RCA code, but surely the PS2 uses a Sony code if any? -j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Daisy Posted February 23, 2004 Report Share Posted February 23, 2004 Hey, if there is a standard code... I'd love to hear it just to program it into my remote. Glen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
