Fun fact: The "Internet Channel" icon was made by Sony but unused. Other unused icons like "Utility Channel" and "Other PC" hint they might’ve planned a full Linux desktop inside PSBBN. #PSBBN #PS2 #PlayStation #retrogaming

Early 2002, Sony held an event for shareholders detailing their plans for PSBBN. It had a different look and included features that never came to fruition: - Streaming movies with RealPlayer - Instant messaging, voice calls & video mail - Recording TV #psbbn #ps2 #retrogaming

#PSBBN Mini Update 1: Some users were getting confused when partitioning the drive. The installer now shows the OPL partition size, makes it clear you’re only partitioning the remaining space, and creates the POPS partition first.

Thanks to everybody who used the game installer, you’ve collectively installed over 3,400 unique games in the past week! The HDD-OSD Icon Database now has 3,657 icons and counting! github.com/CosmicScale/...

Look what I stumbled across on AliExpress — a mini PS2 with an optical drive! It even has some kind of IDE resurrector mod. Sadly, it only comes with a 128GB drive, so it’s not compatible with the PSBBN Definitive Patch… maybe upgradable if there's room inside!

CosmicScale @cosmicscale.bsky.social · 13/06/2025

Just pushed a #PSBBN update! The game installer now automatically creates HDD-OSD icons. If a game's cover exists in the OPL Manager Art Database, an icon will be generated. All new icons are automatically contributed to the HDD-OSD Icon Database! #PS2 #PlayStation #retrogaming

archive.org is currently "temporarily offline". That means new users will not be able to install the PSBBN Definitive English Patch until it's back, as the image is hosted there. Hopefully, it will be back soon...

If you're using WSL and the drive is mounted in Windows, it will also be mounted in Linux at /mnt/{drive-letter}

I'm trying to install via windows and editing the Game_path part is a bit unclear. how do you edit the gamepath to linux compatible path when you're one a windows machine? in the past simply copied the path in Linux and pasted it there. Now on Windows, my games are in an external drive D:

CosmicScale @cosmicscale.bsky.social · 11/05/2025

Yes! I recommend making an APPS folder in __common and placing OPNPS2LD.ELF there. Then you just need to edit __sysconf/PS2BBL/CONFIG.INI, for example: LK_CIRCLE_E1 = hdd0:__common:pfs:/APPS/OPNPS2LD.ELF

This is great and a must for all ps2 owners. I was just wondering if there's a way to get the ps2bbl config file to point to OPL, so
can boot straight to OPL and get to the remainder of my games that the psbbn installer didnt instal. Thanks

Just had to push an update to the PSBBN Definitive English Patch's art downloader scripts — IGN had turned it into one big ad for the Switch 2.

Quick #PSBBN update! I’ve added a game manual for PS1 games. Did you know you can enable scanlines and smooth textures? #PS2 #PlayStation #Sony #RetroGaming

I had a record number of contributions to the #PSBBN database yesterday. I wondered why things were so quiet today...

CosmicScale @cosmicscale.bsky.social · 17/01/2025

The #PSBBN art database continues to grow. Now at over 3,000 images. A script weeds out rejects. This one is by far the funniest. This is genuinely the art work that was downloaded for Destroy All Humans and it ended up in someone's PSBBN Game Channel 🤣

#PSBBN Definitive English Patch update! - Game ID is now fully supported for MemCard Pro 2 and SD2PSX - Art work has been further optimised for faster loading Just download the latest update and re-sync your games. github.com/CosmicScale/... #ps2 #sony #retrogaming

CosmicScale @cosmicscale.bsky.social · 07/01/2025

I got a MemCard Pro 2 today. It mostly works with #PSBBN, but there's an issue with OPL-Launcher-BDM. It creates a random memory card each time you launch a game before the game ID is applied. I'll look into fixing this.

CosmicScale @cosmicscale.bsky.social · 01/01/2025

Happy New Year! #PSBBN image updated to version 2.01: - Added OPL and Launch Disc to the Game Channel with a shortcut in the Navigator Menu - Set USB keyboard layout to US English. Press ALT+~ to toggle between kana and direct input - Minor corrections to the English translation
