PS2 "Mega Memory 16mb" memory card SUCKS!!

[Arcayn]

This reminds me off the N64 days. I was very pissed when I got a game (mystical ninja) which actually required a controller pak to save. I thought, none of that shit on cartridge consoles... bah. Anyway I got a 3rd party mem pak. It worked ok, but was really hard to remove from the slot. The I got Turok 2 and it didn't save at all. Had to get an official Nintendo pak to get it to work. Bottom line: 90% of the 3rd party stuff sucks big time.

Thats interesting, they're still widely available where I live. You should probably try buying them over the net if no stores dealing in videogames have the 8MB memory card for sale.

This is the only thing that you can find in stores around here. Not many people buy, just because the fact you have to use a CD to load your data.

I have searched on the internet, you CAN order a Sony 8MB Memory Card.. but you have to wait till they get another shipment in which who knows will be since I hear that Sony is running low on making them.. All sites I have went to say "Currently out of stock". So what I'm doing is just waiting for my local Wal-Mart or local electronic store to get another shipment in.. hopefully in the next 2 months..

BTW this happened last week, A new Sears opened up near me at a mall and I was there for the Grand Opening but not till around noon, the store opened at 9 or 10.. Anyway they had about 20 Sony 8MB Memory Cards and they sold them out in just 1 freakin hour! Damnit I was so pissed when I saw they were gone! I felt so stupid, "why didn't I think to come to a new store, they would have to have memory cards.." err But it was just one of those things that you really dont think about I guess.. Anyway I guess everyone went to the damn opening just to get the damn memory cards not for the store, those little...!! :angry:

What I heard was something like the third party companys quit making them because the contracts ran out or something and Sony didn't do anything about it and didn't make enough cards for the amount of PS2 they sold. So now Sony is having trouble meeting demands. I don't how true that is, thats just what I heard, but I have noticed that I haven't seen any Mad Catz cards or any other well know 3rd-party company.
