Bringing my video game on an international flight

Yes, you can bring a Playstation 2 and a couple of games, accessories, etc, into the US.

So it will not get damaged in transit, it would be best to pack it in your carry-on bag (which TSA explicitly allows), you will just need to place it in a separate bin for screening at security check points.

That's no problem at all.

Generally, you can bring with you whatever you want unless it's illegal or you are planning on selling or leaving it in the guest country.

For some more esoteric items you may need something like a "carnet" for temporary importation, but a Playstation 2 is clearly NOT in that category.

One problem you might run into is region locking of the games - Sony region locks games based on their display system, ie NTSC, NTSC-J, PAL.

Brazil seems to be PAL-M based, while the US is NTSC based.

Your games will get past security and customs just fine, but they might not play on a unmodified US Playstation.
