If you are useing the new slim line console some peripherals don\'t seem to work. I\'m haveing trouble finding a wireless controller that works.

Make sure you have the right model DVD Remote, this happened to me too.  Older models do not have a built in infared reciever and will not pick up the signal from the DVD Remote, I suggest exchanging the remotes for the older version.

I have heard that the new slimline ps2 only works with official Sony products. This applies to controllers too, no 3rd party peripherals will work.

Now that\'s marketing ;) I don\'t have that problem anyway. All the peripherals I get for my PS2 are made by Sony. I do have a couple things made by 3rd party (one memory card actually and a steering wheel for PSX).
