[@MrSujano]

It's a fairly straightforward process once you get the hang of it!

[@QP_lite]

Is there a way without using PCSX2? I don't have a PC / Laptop...

[@SRC267]

Would be cool if you could do a cheats tutorial

[@wendisari5246]

is there way to import save game from damon memorycard ? which is different format .

[@atobekeigo17]

@Mr. Sujano can I use this method to put AetherSX2 save game to PCSX2?

[@aaronfuksa2047]

@@QP_lite some type of windows emulator for android. I don't know anything else

[@echoic-yl5wj]

Legend, got it working, was struggling for hours trying to find out how to do it :)

[@SlightlyMisunderstood]

Informative stuff. It does work well. I started recently simply swapping or rather copying the entire memory card back and forth between PCSX2 and AetherSX2. So I am always up to date whenever I move from mobile and pc. You can simply copy the memory card file from the memory card folder from and into each emulators. You need to know the directory where to find them off course but once you do it is a doddle. Just like the old days of swapping memory cards from the original PS2.

[@MegaIndradewa]

not work for me

[@blackstar5867]

Thanks for the program name . My emulator was on my xbox series X so I only needed the game of the save replacing programs name. Iv used it before aswell just forgot what it was called. Not p.c emulators were needed in my case

[@voteDC]

I appreciate the guides you do as they are quick and to the point, with no added fluff to bolster the run time of the video. As to what save games I'll import, well it's going to have to be saves for Ultimate Alliance and Ultimate Alliance 2 that have all the characters unlocked. I'm too used to playing the games on my Xbox 360 where I already have them all.

[@MrSujano]

All stuff, no fluff 💪

[@TheLateLordKardok]

I had previously unlocked every single thing on my SoulCalibur 3 save on my actual PS2. However, a corruption to my save file meant I had to start over from the beginning. I was livid, but I recently got into emulating PS2 games and your tutorial has saved me many hours of misery. SC3 is not an easy game to unlock everything in, at least not for me. Thank you so much!!!

[@KEZAstraYT]

finally after struggling for ages i came across this video thanks for making guides that are so informative

[@RemyGunbreaker]

Oh, man..... You really helped me out. I've been trying to figure this whole thing out for HOURS. Then, I came across your video and you didn't miss a thing. YOU ARE THE BEST.

[@voxor314]

I Recently got an Odin 2 Pro but already had saves on my PC that I forgot about until after I had already started a new memory card on the Odin. This was a very helpful video to demonstrate that I could export individual saves from two different memory cards and merge them into one. Thanks so much!

[@BlueSpeedDemon13]

This guide was incredibly straight forward, quick, and you spoke well and fluently. Thank you very much.

[@LJ_KING_HARDCORE]

Hey man, i finally did it, managed to get everything unlocked for my Mortal Kombat, Tekken and God of War games, without wasting hours to unlock everything all over again. thank you very much my Irish dude

[@Marixoan4o1]

You are the best mate!!!!!! Thank you!

[@rebranded1248]

Thanks!!!!! your channel is so straight forward and professional. It is so great that you make it so simple and clear when you do tutorial videos for emulators, you dont add any extra info that is not needed. It makes it so clear and easy to follow when watching your videos!!!!!!

[@xRomeo999]

Aethersx2 runs great even on my old note 9. I didn't have it mess with any settings. 💯👍

[@randomnaamofzo1246]

Exynos or SD?

[@Sam-380]

same

[@Tectonic128]

​@@randomnaamofzo1246probably snap dragon exynos old varieties are bad

[@nabir14]

I'm using AetherSX2 and it's very optimized. It runs PS2 games in 57fps and 102%speed in my snapdragon 665 phone with underclock. I love it!

[@thegamerfe8751]

I also have a phone with Snapdragon 665 and I suggest to test Vulkan and OpenGL heavily cause for example Persona 3 performs much better with OpenGL while KOF XI performs better with Vulkan. I didn't need underclocking for any of my games.

[@JagdPanther101]

Excellent video. My PS3 died tonight after I was 25 hours into my first playthrough of Star Ocean 3 in 18 years. I was so ticked off. Fortunately, in the course of the last few hours, I've managed to get PCSX2 installed, get my PS4 controller connected (had trouble with the PS3 controller), convert my (thankfully) backed-up saves from .psv to .psu, and get the save imported into the PCSX2 mem card. We're in business, boys!

[@mlgleonardo310]

How did your ps3 die and what model was it?

[@JagdPanther101]

@@mlgleonardo310 CECH-A01. Leading up to it dying, it had locked a couple times while playing SO3. I'd gotten around that, but eventually it just locked running in a dungeon and wouldn't respond to any controls or the front power button. I hard reset it by turning off the power and pulling the power, but after plugging it back in and turning it on, it didn't do anything; the fans spun up, but it wouldn't show anything on the screen (not even booting). I might eventually repair it myself, but I've since completed SO3 on PCSX2 and am back on my PS4 playing SO4 Remastered downloaded from PSN.

[@devilshock241]

How can I change psv to psu?

[@Xcessive_Evil]

Was very easy for an idiot like me to follow. Now I have RE Outbreak 1/2 and DMC3 back. Thanks!

[@Arieline_D_fur]

im actually hyped for this for the first time im waiting patiently i could wait for 3 years cause i want the best ps2 emulation experience

[@victorugri]

Straight to the point and very helpfull! Thanks a lot man, you saved me!

[@108CAM]

Thank so much! This is exactly what I needed to import a fully unlocked save file for The Simpsons Road Rage into PCSX2. One thing I want to point out is that this method only works with the Stable Release of PCSX2 and not the Nightly Release so make sure you have the correct version of PCSX2 installed!

[@calgolden1378]

Whats wrong with the nighlty release? I have that one. Do i need to delete that one ?

[@BizzaroICCW]

This was the best how to video in the history of how to videos. Thank you very much

[@carlosbarreto4695]

Excellent video! I'm new to PCSX2 and I'm using it on my Steam Deck. At first, I was upset about the fact that the emulator itself couldn't read the .psu files directly, but now I understand that the emulator creates "Memory Card" files, so the mymc program is required to insert the PS2 backup saves into the PCSX2's Memory Card file. I used this method to transfer the Final Fantasy XII saves from my PS2 to my Steam Deck's PCSX2 and it worked like a charm! Thank you.

[@RichGrimes]

I'm new to deck too..is this also how you save games in pcsx2?

[@carlosbarreto4695]

@@RichGrimes I don't have a lot of experience with PCSX2 (I've made the process described in my post above, but that was all), but I believe that if you start playing a PS2 game while using the emulator and you just save the game at a given moment, the emulator will create the Memory Card in order to save the game. But that's just my assumption. As I said, I'm new to this emulator as well and for now, I've just tested a single game.

[@RichGrimes]

@@carlosbarreto4695 oh okay gotcha..thanks man

[@janvaljan288]

Very straightforward, and actually works. Thank you very much!

[@Enzed_]

I use dropbox to store my save files in the cloud from my pc and foldersync to transfer them in the respective folders for the emulators on my phone to recognize. It works really well for my use case. I never used mymc much, only needed it to see which saves are which cuz it shows the icons. For transferring files to a real PS2 I just use PCSX2 to change it from a .ps2 file to a folder with the saves in it.

[@TheLightningBlade]

What emulator do you have on your phone??

[@Enzed_]

@@TheLightningBlade I use retroarch for anything from third gen consoles to fifth gen, dolphin for GCN, aethersx2 for ps2, drastic for ds, citra for 3ds, and ppsspp for psp.

[@TheLightningBlade]

@@Enzed_ do you have an iPhone or android?

[@Enzed_]

@@TheLightningBlade I have an android phone. It's difficult to get emulators on iOS devices.

its not working for me its going on the memmory card cuz i can see it inside bios but the game is saying its not there

What if the save files are already present but I want to replace them?

[@Jordan-yu7bv]

can you please help me. this is kinda out dated and dont even have the ISO option you show at the start. when i hit import and export i dont go to those same file locations and the files dont show

[@brz757]

Is there really no way to copy PS2 saves from a physical memory card directly to PC using the PS3 USB adapter? All these methods seem to need a PS2 to get the data off the cards.

[@Jordan-yu7bv]

this makes no sense. well i select import nothing shows up in the file

[@midorifox]

how about importing directly from the memory card? as you know, ps2 doesn't save as .max, .psu, .cbs, .xps nor .sps
