|
|
Hello all,
I am a suikoden fan from long ago and have just recently gotten back into the series. I have been playing through the series on my PS3 and my question is this; is there any way to copy your saved suikoden I and II data from your PS3's internal PS memory card to your internal PS2 memory card? The suikoden III manual specifies how to do this with a PS2, but I have been unable to figure out how to do this with the PS3's internal memory. I know that the saved data doesn't unlock much, but as a completionist I find this problem annoying. Any assistance on this matter would be greatly appriciated. |

Having tried to copy files myself, it doesn't look like it's possible. If you still have your PS2, however, you can copy your file over using a PS2-PS3 memory card adapter. You can copy your Suikoden II save to a PS1 memory card, start your Suikoden III game on a PS2, load your Suikoden II data into Suikoden III on a PS2 memory card, save...and copy it back to your PS3.
Well, that should work. _________________

Oh, that's lovely. I only got my PS3 because my PS2 broke. _________________

Thanks for the feedback. I do not personally own a PS2 but a friend of mine does, and your solution seems like it should work. Once I scrape together the $10 to buy a memory card adapter (my bank account has been a bit empty since purchacing Suikoden I, II, and respective strategy guides ) I will let you know how it turns out. |

Sweet success! I purchaced a memory card adapter (it was only $7, shipped from Hong Kong) and transfered my internal memory to an external card and then swaped the data on a PS2 as suggested. The whole process only took a few minutes, and now I can enjoy the plays and references to my old characters in Suikoden III on my PS3. Thanks suikox, you guys suiko-rock! |

I'm glad it turned out well. It's a shame that all that extra work is needed, but it's understandable that the ability to move PS1 saves to a Virtual PS2 memory card was overlooked. Suikoden III was the only game to use that feature, after all.
At least we have a workaround. _________________
