  Congratulations  your laser is a little crappy like many peoples are and will not read the DvD version of swap magic.

What you can do instead is use the compact disk press eject put in a high TOC game disk*doesn't matter too much for melty cause its such a small game, then use your flip top to switch out to the game you want to play.

*you can look all this up its all over the internet

I had that problem too, i even bought another disc, of course that didn't work.
So i bought a Japanese ps2 from Play-Asia.

O.K thanks, my MBAA hasn't even arrived yet anyway, it took play-asia 10 days just to ship the damn thing (FML!) and i'll likely have to wait 10 more with my luck.

I know your pain.  I ordered mine the day it came out, and it didn't arrive until the day after I'd left to go to the first WC melty gathering for MBAA.  Everyone else, of course, had already been playing it emulated for those two or so weeks that I was just waiting.

Dang, sounds harsh. I think i may have named this thread wrong though, i guess it should be "PS2 lens problems" right?

Umm, whats a high TOC disc? I still can't get it to work.

My friend Stephen brought his PS2 round and it worked, me and 3 of my mates played it for about 8 hours straight, it was the best night in i've ever had. I think i'll need to buy another ps2 then, replacing the lens probably isn't much cheaper anyways.                                        Update: One of my friends "donated" me his PS2 (thanks Ash) and it works fine, love the game and so do my friends. lronicly i think that MBAA is way more accessible than BB, I have watched my friends noob it up on both games but they just seemed to get the hang of MB way faster and were doing some cool stuff just by stringing normals and specials together. (something which doesn't happen on BB) Everyone i've had play MB said they preferred it to any fighting games they've played before.....Oh dear, i seems i went off topic again.                                                         PS: i still really like BB though.
