This item doesn't work on PS2. Beware sleazy sellers:
the one I purchased it from refused to refund. Of course
they don't warn you that it won't work for what you're
most like planning on using it for.

I use these memory cards for all my old PS1 games on my PS2. A must have if you play Final Fantasy VII.

For anyone that doesn't know, the PS2 is backwards compatibile allowing for the ability to play great PS1 games. However, you can only save games on a PS1 memory card. Here's the catch, I thought I was getting a deal when buying this 3rd Party memory card (3 cards, wonderful!) - turns out that most PS2s won't even recognize the card at all. I called Sony and they stated that most PS2s have a restriction block that allows it only to read Authentic Sony Memory Cards. So I ended up buying another memory card, this time from Sony, and my PS2 read the card fine and I was finally able to save games for the PS1 game I was playing. Definitely stay away from this product and buy authentic Sony stuff. Smart of Sony to make it tough for 3rd parties to make compatible memory for their consoles.

The memory cards were hard to find around here, but were found immediately using Amazon.com. So far, we have only used one of the three, but it is working fine. Thank you.
