my brother bought me a memory card so i can save ps1 games that i still play on the ps2.
he has the old original big ps2 and it works fine on his.

as i dont live at home anymore i recently got my own slimline ps2. the ps1 games play fine and it seems to save onto the card but when i come to continue the games at a later date it says that the memory card isnt formated and i lost my game.

why does this happen?
it all still works fine on my brothers ps2.

I don't think it's necessarily an issue between new and old PS2's...it's just that the memory card has somehow acquired a corruption that your brother's PS2 doesn't care about but your PS2 does. I would bet that if you put that card in someone else's old PS2, it still wouldn't work.

I had a similar problem on a PS2 memory card--I could save and load data from one game on that particular card, but I couldn't save anything from other games (and there was plenty of space). The card was corrupted, but in such a way that that one game was okay with it.

A memory card will save tips from many video games. what number video games you could save on it relies upon on how lots your memory card can carry. very just about all video games will enable for extra suitable than one profile so which you and your brother will each and every have the skill to maintain separate interest progression on one memory card. to apply it you positioned it interior the slot above the controller and despite interest you play gets admission to it once you keep or load. wish you have relaxing gaming! and that i'm hoping i helped. ^^ *****EDIT: because of the fact the interest reads the saved records from the memory card you're able to desire to go away the memory card interior the PS2 once you desire to maintain or load a interest (you will could desire to load your interest whenever you initiate a interest up). as quickly as you load the interest despite the fact which you would be able to take the memory card out till you initiate the PS2 up lower back. some video games could have an autosave characteristic which skill it saves immediately once you attain specific areas of the interest and you will could desire to go away the memory card in for it to maintain immediately. in short you're able to desire to have the cardboard in every time the interest is loading or saving.*****
