literally the death of my ps2. i forget whether it will only play black discs or blue discs but it’s useless and still with my obsolete media box to show my kid when she’s a bit older. little bug doesn’t know how good she has it with a switch that she gets to play for like 20 mins every few days
Back in the day, the internet wasn't nearly as well established as it is now. Finding parts for consoles was hard. This message meant either your disc was dying or your laser was dying.
Knowing my PS2 was one bad day away from saying no more games was terrifying as a kid.
I tried to replace the laser one time. Didn't like the fact that it was just a zif connector that goes under a piece of plastic that wears so easily over time. Felt like it was cheapened manufacturing. I could be wrong about the quality, but that's how it felt.

Not creepy here, but Alucard's dialogue made me chuckle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeM7paJ17YM
