Does the PlayStation 1 memory card work on a PlayStation 2?

Why won't my playstation one memory card work on my playstation two?

  • in trying to play my old PS1 games but they won;t save. is there a way to either get my PS2 to save my old games? or get my PS2 to read my PS1 memory card?

  • Answer:

    I'm pretty sure the memory card should work. But the PS1 card only works with PS1 games.

I had my PS2 card first so, when I got a PS1 card, I just stuck it in. It wouldn't let me save either, so I tried switching the cards, PS1 card in the 1st slot, PS2 in the second. I was able to play and save all my PS1 games after that.

I can use my PS1 memory card on my PS2. Maybe buy a new PS1 memory card.

I've been having the same problem. Fortunately, I'm lucky (or unlucky) enough to have one of those fat PS2's AND a slim one. I started playing my good old FF7, then the memory card didn't get picked up, like what happened to you. I switched it over to my whale PS2, and it worked. It seems the slims just have the problem. All you can really do is use a PS1 or fat PS2. ...you're not the only one suffering

No you have to buy a seperate card for the PS2 . They are not interchangable.

That's rather odd. My PS2 reads my old memory cards, or at least it used to I haven't tried it lately. You might just have a bad memory card that doesn't work. You can't save to a PS2 memory card though(you could transfer saves from the memory card to a PS2 memory card but still can't load it or play it that way. Unless they changed something with the slim model you CAN'T SAVE PS1 games to a PS2 card. I will agree with the one person though to make sure you are using slot 1. I think it messes it up when it tries to read slot 1 first and gets the wrong card, confuses the thing.

Sorry you have to get a ps2 memory card for your ps2 system. Mine wouldn't work either, once I got the ps2 card, I could play my ps1 games and save them onto the ps2 card
