First and foremost, read! Although some reviews claim that this won't work on a slimline PS2, I can assure you that it will IF you follow these instructions. Because the PS1 memory card is not formatted to read like an official PS1 card, you should not put it in right away when your PS2 starts up. br>br>1.

As with all previous reviews, I can confirm that when a PS1 game is inserted after being prompted, it works on the PS2. I'm glad I took the time to read the reviews on those instructions. My firsthand knowledge - I recently picked up Driver again and remembered how painful the training stage was. I got about four levels into the game after passing the test and deciding to save my progress. I couldn't because the slots were occupied by two PS2 memory cards. As a result, I came here and discovered this thug. I removed a PS2 card and reinstalled Driver, passing Training on the first try and being prompted to SAVE the game. So I inserted the card, and a box appeared on the screen that read "card not formatted. " After waiting 30 seconds, a new box appeared, asking if I wanted to format. I decided to go ahead with it. What's next? The game saved perfectly, and now I'm driving through restaurants and chasing L trains like I should. Of course, save the President while also winning the game! Then it's on to Driver 2, which I'll save on this card as well; just follow the instructions and everything should work fine.
Despite the fact that many people complain about slimline PS2 consoles failing to read the card for browser formatting, there is a simple solution. br>br>The first thing you must do is open the package for your card and NOT plug it in to your PS2 (to prevent corruption). First, start your PS2 by inserting a Playstation 1 disc and waiting for it to load. Once the game has started, you can put your memory card into the console and save whenever the game prompts you to. Before saving, the game will prompt you to format the card, which can then be read by the PS2 browser. br>br>Sony designed the PS2 consoles to refuse to work with non-Sony-made unformatted cards, effectively rendering 3rd-party cards like these useless. However, if the memory card was formatted before attempting to use it with the PS2 browser (as in the method above), the console reads it as an official Sony card. br>br>So format in game BEFORE using it in the PS2 browser! If you have an old PS1 console lying around, use it to format the card and save a game before switching to the PS2 console. It should display correctly in your browser. br>br>You now have a PS1 Memory Card that is fully compatible!!

- It easily slides into memory card slots. (Most 3rd party cards are sticky when inserted/removed. )br>br>Overall, I give this card a 5 star rating because it has yet to fail me in any way that was not my fault, and I really enjoyed the quality it provided, as it far exceeded my original expectations. shot.

I followed the instructions in the other reviews, which proved to be very useful. If you're trying to save a game, you should do the following: Turn on the game and play until you're ready to save; when the screen prompts you to insert a memory card, do so; you can leave the memory card in there for as long as you're playing the game. ) The procedure for loading a game is the same: Start the game as you normally would. Go to load, and when it asks for a memory card, insert it, then play the game. Simple instructions that always work. Side note: I didn't put the memory card in before turning on the game, and I didn't put it in when switching games. I'm guessing it'll read it as a PS2 memory card and try to reformat it, but other than that, it'll work if you just follow the steps. This memory card makes me extremely happy because it works and I don't have to play Crash Bash a million times to get it to work. After 11 years, I am finally able to complete the game. Once I get some more PS1 games, I'll order another memory card.
