If money is an issue at all for you though, you should consider getting some of the slightly upgraded versions of the PS2 games which came a little later, Persona4 on the Vita or Disgaea Afternoon of Darkness from the PSP instead of their original PS2 games, not only will some of them be a whole lot cheaper than trying to find their PS2 versions but some have a whole lot of added content over the originals and play really well.

If you are going full on PS2 mode though I recommend picking up a set of component cables for it, I made the change over to using component rather than old composite a while ago and the clarity of the image is really noticable, I've just been torn between playing games on my PS2 slim via component or using my 60gb PS3 via HDMI for the PS2 games (well happy I own a launch model version of that system).

Money is not a problem hahaha already got 350 ps2 games including the games you mentioned.

 

I love collecting for the ps2 and also import japanese games,i have component yes :) 

That's cool but it's not just about the cost of getting some of the games, the PSP version of Disgaea has a whole other mode to the game where after completing the game you can go back over the story but after Etna accidentally kills Laharl during the intro scene and you play the game as her instead.

Also the ps3 has a lot of the PS2 games as HD remasters and for the most part they don't do anything bad to the games, they just sharpen them up and polish them slightly.
