ofcourse there's nothing wrong but I as a launch buyer would feel ripped of..

I mean SONY lowered the price by £100 after 7 months of launch in EU...thats pissed me of a lot

But I am glad no new feature was added to the console at the same time..

PS2 slim...what extra feature did it have....as I cam very late to PS2 (late 05)

The ability to use component cables, for one.

 What version first allowed that? My v9 Pfat PS2 runs on component as well. Was that a slim feature or did it come in one of the earlier versions? 

 Personally, I thought it was always there. I don't think Slim added anything except for the built in ethernet port and inability to use an HDD without a mod.
