60-75 watts will hurt yous ps2, you need at least a 120 watt inverter

Using a larger inverter is the best possible thing to do. I suggest using an inverter that can handle a minimum of 400 watts. This will safely run the PS2 and also ensure that if you ever need to add something to this, you have the room as far as power output is concerned.
