PSP memory card issues

If you look at this link, the seller BoBotechnology is selling the real deal. Use it with two of these and you should be doing fine.

format both together in the adapter on the PC then format it on the PSP. it will work.

Just throwing my 2 pence in. I used one of those adaptors back in the day for my PSP and had no end of problems with it. You could literally make a clone of a Memory Stick onto the micro SD and the Memory Stick would have no problems but you'd find weird artifacts on the SD. Saves not being recognised, ISOs refuse to boot, the memory card disappearing from the system until you take it out and put it back in. Quite frustrating really. Just stick to Memory Sticks (as annoying as that is).

You know what sadly I'm half tempted to do that(because I don't think I want to chance losing another 10 hours of progress...at least I think it was that much in ff1, in a game I just want to beat and be done with, that's a lot of time down the hole), just wish they made one in a decent size(I need to look around) if I can even still get one, which with everyone clearing everything related to it(and vita sadly) I think I have to check out ebay or amazon

I had similar trouble with that adapter, especially trying to boot PSX games.

The single micro sd adapter has worked flawlessly for me so far (2 years or so I reckon.) Looks like this one here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Micro-SD-SDHC-T ... 3a7a4e89b2

The dual adapters were great back when larger sd cards were more expensive, but now you can get the single card adapter and a 32gb legit micro sd for under $20 shipped, so it's just easier to go that route.

I've also had problems booting PSX games on PSP with a (unbeknownst at the time) fake Memory Stick. It was a crappy Chinese clone, no wonder it was so cheap. Damn Sony and their stupid memory sticks having weird protection in them. What's the point?

What's the point?

Sony has always been keen to produce proprietary recordable media, from Betamax to PS Vita memory cards. The point being that Sony can manufacture these things cheaply but charge a large profit due to them being exclusive.

It was a rhetorical question.

You have to make the question mark blue next time.

Sorry but should know rhetoric and sarcasm don't travel through the written/typed word more often than not....
