Would be cool if they added support to PS1's version of VMU, Playstation Pocket.

I still own my AirLabs 24X memory cards, which have a display showing which of the 24 memory cards you are currently using. I have no idea how people survived with only one or two regular memory cards back then.

@@ongakuwotabeta they can be a bit finicky sometimes, refusing to load a specific card slot, which is how they always behaved. Other than that they work perfectly fine still to this day and I don't think they were expensive at all.

I was around when it was brand new and current, but I didn't know the ps1/ps2 memory card split existed until last week. I feel completely spoiled by the idea I can put a micro SD card I happen to have around like 4 GB and have a crazy amount of storage, back up via wifi to my pc and cloud storage, labels popping up telling me what I'm playing...well made hardware and software like this are a miracle to me. Once I mod my ps2 with a hard drive, it's endgame and I just dug my system out of the basement after decades in retirement. My old memory cards no longer work which is expected, but over two decades later this is an appropriate update.

The way you connect to and interact with this card seems VERY similar to the now defunct PocketSprite

Awesome product, already got mine! But I think it should be mentioned that the quality of the plastic shell is really cheap. It's slightly warped and has sharp edges that don't close in line very well, which I find kinda sad for the price - regardless of it's amazing and currently one of a kind features.

I knew you didn't NEED one for each game, but some games that I really really loved on the PS1 I just decided deserved their own memory cards. It made it easier too, used a label maker, slapped that one title on it. Figured out a way to store each jewel case with their memory card.
@RetroDodo10 ай бұрын
That's exactly what I did too with the label maker! I'm pretty sure that I quickly figured out that you didn't need one per game, but that was probably after I already had three or four of them haha!

One video dude says 8mb at time? Or can you set bigger memory card sizes? I may just buy another card if it's just 8mb at time. Got the max 64mb one long time ago. also got a 128mb one but it doesn't work very good.
@RetroDodo10 ай бұрын
You can set bigger sizes through the WebUI, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it because the official 8MB cards were by far the most compatible.

There's some good and bad advantages to this, the good is that you're saving a lot of space, the bad is there some games cannot actually be moved from one memory card to another I know I tried that you would have to repast some games in order to save it

PS1 game saves can actually be saved to a PS2 memory card (via PS2 console), but PS2 saves can't be used on a PS1 memory card.

This isn't true, you can't save PS1 data to a PS2 memory card even when you're using a PS2. I actually just double checked it just to be absolutely certain!

@@RetroDodo I'm probably having a Mandela moment then. I'm sure I remember having PS1 saved data on my PS2 memory card somehow back then. Could it be that I can freely transfer over PS1 data via the on system memory card management? Maybe that's how they got on there?
@RetroDodo9 ай бұрын
I don't even think it's possible to transfer it via the PS2 browser either 😅 maybe if you have some kind of weird third party memory card it might have been possible somehow, but with official hardware I'm almost certain that it's not possible.
