 Now this adapter can do two-way transfers May 25, 2007
By Sir Bowen
As of the latest code update to the PS3, this adapter can now write out to a PS2 memory card, as well as read from one (which was all it could do before). A previously lame product now, officially, rocks.

Incredibly Useful for PS3 Owners who Had PS2s Dec 19, 2006
By Lisa Shea
"medieval swordfighting enthusiast"
If you are getting your hands on a PlayStation 3 and have any PS2 games that you used to play on a PlayStation 2, then it is really important to get your hands on this memory card adaptor.
In essence the memory card adaptor is a little box that you can put your PS2 memory card into. A cable then plugs into the PS3's USB port. This is the only way to get the save games from your PS2 into your PS3 so you can then use them with your PS2 games.
Almost every PS3 owner I have spoken with owns a PS2 and many PS2 games. They intend to keep playing those PS2 games on the PS3. This is especially true with epic PS2 games like Final Fantasy XII. There's no reason to start again from scratch! The memory card adaptor is rather cheap, and saves you weeks if not months of play time.
The act of moving save games is really very easy. Simply put your PS2 memory card into the small unit. On the PS3 console, select the card. It asks you to give a name to the "storage area" on your PS3's hard drive. For my 8 memory cards, I just named those storage areas CARD1 - CARD8, so that they matched up with the cards. Then you hit a button, and wait about 2 minutes while the files are moved.
Once they're on your PS3's hard drive, you're all set! You can view the save games, delete the ones you don't want any more, and use them to play with.
Definitely a must-have for a PS3 owner who has any PS2 memory cards lying around - or who has friends who might visit with PS2 games and cards. Sure, the PS3 games are great - but there are a TON of PS2 games out there that are a lot of fun, too. This little device lets you take advantage of all that time you've already invested in the game.

 Memory Card Adapter May 01, 2008
By S. Wilson
"CSI Chosen 1"
It does exactly what it claims to, copy your PS1 and PS2 memory card files over to your PS3. It's only useful if your PS3 is backwards compatible ie. the 80 GB or 60 GB versions. And even then, you only need to use it once. I recommend getting it used since I'm sure the seller will have only used it once and it will still be in perfect condition.

I knew SONY wouldn't let us down Jun 08, 2007
By Joseph A. Floro
This is really important for those who own, and do not yet own, this advice. SONY has just released the 1.80 firmware update for your PS3. On top of the usual changes and additions, the firmware update fixed the programing on the PS3 that would not let you transfer data back to your Memory Cards from the PS3 harddrive. This is a giant leap forward for those who own multiple counsels or just enjoy playing their games at other people's houses as well. Good job, SONY.

A little misleading May 15, 2007
By GG
Maybe I didn't read the description properly but in the picture it looks like you just plug it straight into your PS3 but in actual fact you also need to buy the connecting lead. Other than that it works fine.
