I have an old stick that I had for my PS2 that I would like to try using on my PS3, but I obviously need some kind of adaptor to make this happen
Anywhere in the GTA that has something like this ... preferably in the west end (Etobicoke/Mississauga) or the city ... I would love to avoid going down to Pacific Mall for such a small piece

EBGames should have 'em.

I picked one up from Game Center near Yonge/Bloor. It was $10 brand new which is a decent price, but I'm not sure if I can recommend it as it is horribly laggy. I think this may be true of all PS2 to PS3 adapters unless you get lucky.

ONly a few select ps2-ps3 adaptors work flawlessly with sticks.
Unfortunately none are available in Toronto. Either ebay or international.
Check this thread for adaptors that work well..

I'm going to try to send a PM to that guy who sells the inPin ones on that forum ...
Not having an account there is making it frustrating though. First you have to sign up, then you have to agree to the rules, then you need 5 posts to PM, but you have to wait about 4 minutes between posts ...
*sigh* ... just to send a PM will take me 15 minutes ... hah

I just bit the bullet and ordered this one:

Seems like it will work and if it doesn't, it's only $15 so I won't cry too much

Cool, tell us how it works out. What games are you planning to test it on. I actually have the "real" converter and if works very well.
But as with the previous post ... INPIN is the best one that is still available.
