Accessory Description
The Sony PlayStation 2 Multi Tap Adapter (Model SCPH-10090) is an official OEM multiplayer expansion accessory released in 2000 that transforms the PlayStation 2 into a true party-ready gaming system. Designed to expand a single controller port into four, the Multi Tap allows multiple players to connect simultaneously — making it possible to enjoy local multiplayer experiences well beyond the standard two-player setup.
By connecting directly to the PS2 controller and memory card ports, the Multi Tap enables large-group gameplay for compatible titles, turning living rooms into competitive arenas. Whether battling friends in TimeSplitters 2, hosting chaotic matches in WWE SmackDown!, or running full team showdowns in sports favorites like Madden NFL or NBA Street, this accessory made the PlayStation 2 a centerpiece for couch multiplayer sessions. Built with Sony’s official hardware quality, it provides reliable connectivity and seamless integration with supported games designed for expanded player counts.
