Works for PS1 <--> PC (Windows 8.0 64-bit)

Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2014

**I'll state up front that I have not used this adaptor for its intended purpose (transferring PS1/2 saves -> PS3), so I actually can't comment on how it works in that case.**

Instead, I bought it to transfer saves from my original PS1 memory cards to my PC (for backup and use with ePSXe 1.9.0), and vice versa.

It took some hunting down of documentation, drivers, and software, but it worked for this purpose; ePSXe could read saves from my cards, and my PSX could read saves generated by ePSXe. Moreover, I heard people are having trouble using this adaptor on 64-bit Windows, but I was able to locate drivers and software that worked.

It can read/write with both my 15-block official Sony and MadCatz cards. It does not seem to be able to read/write from my Performance 360-block Mega Memory Card, though I need to spend some more time figuring out why.

Notes for managing expectations:
1) You can't plug a card into the adaptor and directly read from it using ePSXe, at least as of 1.9.0. I had to first copy the card contents to a file, and then point ePSXe at that file to actually use my saves. This is because ePSXe only knows how to read from files. Have not tried other emulators though; they may be able to.
2) Your card does not show up like a typical USB thumb drive that you can browse in Windows. This is because the data on PSX memory cards is not formatted in a way that Windows can read. Hence the need to find external software for reading from the card to a file.
3) As others have said, you need to provide your own male Mini-USB B to male USB A cable.

I will update this review if I get more details.

This product does what it says it does...moves save data back and forth from the PS3 hard drive to the PS2/PS1 memory card adaptors. Useful if you still have and use a PS2 in another room, or (like I do) keep it next to the PS3 for games that the PS3 runs into an issue with (I'm looking at you, Knights of the Round in FF7).

Overall, you could probably get this used and not run into an issue, or just get one among two or three people, as it isn't likely to be used often.

Perfection, one-time use

Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2008

Verified Purchase

An ideal PS3 would have everything the 60GB model had AND, among other things, a slot that accepted PS2 memory cards but... there is no such thing as an ideal PS3 :)

If you have an old-style, PS2-compatible PS3, you can use this adapter exactly once. It will transfer information from your physical PS2 memory card into a virtual 'card' on your PS3 disk. Once you're done, you can sell it or give it away to a friend with similar needs because there's hardly any other use for it. It's perfect in what it does.

It may be worth noting that the virtual PS2 cards were preserved when I upgraded the disk on my 60GB PS3. I used the 'system backup' option and, after I restored everything back on the new disk, the 'card' was there, to my kids' joy.

This is the product for any person that never could finish that old game from years ago while also not wanting to juggle a lot of consoles, always good to wait till the price is more to your liking so you don't get gouged because of nostalgia.

NO need to start all over with my favorite PS2 games!

I had been thinking about getting this for some time. Upon getting it I foundit performs flawlessly and is simple to use, appearing in the same location in the XMB as the virtual memory cards. First save I loaded was Gran turismo 3 and 4 on PS2. then Castlevania SOTN and chronicles on PSone. Then R-type delta. Then my MGS2 saves. all tranferred quickly and perfectly.

You can even transfer saves created on your PS3 to the appropriate memory card for use on a PS1 or PS2. This doesn't include another USB A-B cable so you will need to use an existing one.

Never need another memory card again

Works as intended, it reads your ps1/2 memory cards & puts them on your ps3 HDD. If u dont want to delete your saves just save them to the ps3 & format the memory card & now you have unlimited ps1/2 space.

Sony knows their stuff...kind of.

Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2008

When the PS3 was first created you could put PS and PS2 memory saves in the PS3 internal memory cards option, but that would mean starting over on a lot of games- I honestly would have preferred a PS and PS2 memory card slot on the outside of the PS3 to save a lot of hassle. While you can create a lot of interal memory cards in the ps3 which makes the memory cards obsolete in a way, it would have gave Sony more money since memory cards had to be purchased that worked with the PS or PS2.
This adapter allows one to connect it to the USB hub (It doesn't come with a USB cable but the USB cable that works with the controller will work with this) and transfer any saves from a PS or a PS2 memory card into the internal memory of the PS3- allowing one to keep going from their last saves. After transferring the memory over, both the adapter and the PS memory cards become basically junk unless one still plays with their PS2. Sony dropped the ball when it came to having a memory card slot on the PS3 for the older PS version games but recovered with this device.
Now while the device and memory cards are pretty much junk, you have to thank Sony in a way. It's better to have them as junk and sell them for a few bucks, perhaps on Amazon *cough* rather than having to keep using the adapter every time you want to play a PS or PS2 game with the saves from there.
So if you have a load of games that just HAVE to be transfered over, this item is perfect. Otherwise I suggest starting over and save some time from trying to sell the adapter to others after using it a whole whopping one or times. (Unless you still play your PS and PS2 and still use the memory cards...in which case this might be very good for more than one use.)

If your friend has one, borrow it; otherwise pick one up if you have old PS1/2 memory cards

Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2008

This little guy works great for his purpose, however it's the kind of accessory that a dozen or more people could easily share. I've only ever used it once (to bring my PS2 saves to my PS3).

However, if you are the owner of a PS3 and want to trade saves back & forth with PS1/2 owners then you will likely see more use.

If you're in the same boat as me though, it would be best just to borrow a friend or neighbor's for the 10 minutes that you'll need it for.
