New PS1 memory card (OEM) won't work in slim PS2

ElMutanto on Oct 09, 2008

" "
I bought a PS1 card to save PS1 game data on my PS2. When it comes to save it keeps asking me if I want to save, I click yes and it asks me again. Occasionally it will tell me the card is not formatted and asks me if I want to format it, I say yes and it repeats the whole thing again. Can anyone help?

- I've been told the opposite. This is the reason I bought a PS1 card. Looking at other forums a lot of people seem to be experiencing similar problems. I know that with another PS1 game, when I tried to save it to my PS2 card it told me I needed a PS1 card??
