The best PS2 model is Phat.
What's the purpose of buying exactly a Japanese PS2?

I live in Japan, so games are more accessible. Also I need to practice my japanese

makes sense.

Yes, original. There were some games incompatible with the Slim model. Moreover, there's HDD is original, that lets you load games from it.

No there is not a flaw with the slim system that will cause disc scratching.

PS3 fat laser disc reader fails to read blue disc PS2 games.

HDD is an external disc memory for the PS2 fat. One PS2 game that needs the HDD is Final Fantasy 11. Sony has shut down the Final fantasy 11 servers making the game unplayable.

HDD means Hard Disk Drive. You can load your games from it with HD loader.

Pretty jealous, to be honest.

I'd like to visit someday, if not just because it'll help progress my Japanese. Moving there permanently would probably be pretty nice too, though it sounds like it's hard to do that.

Guess I'll just buy used games, I guess.
