Hello everyone! I was wondering what advice people have in acquiring PS2 memory cards. I recently acquired a PS2 slim for my birthday, and frankly my only experience with memory card based consoles is a backwards compatible Wii (where I have a memory card + virtual memory cards on the SD / backups of the memory card)

What is the safest route (in terms of longevity / corruption) to go (with or without homebrew).

Thank you for your feedback, looking forward to trying some classics I missed out when I was younger :)

If still needed, I'd suggest sticking to 8 MB ones and dumping / restoring saves through uLaunch Elf and a a USB stick. (or similar solutions for moving to / from more standard storages)
