I forgot that you can't use a PS2 card with a PS1, but that was remedied when it wouldn't let me start a new game without one.

I used to keep my PS1 around in case I wanted to play FFV, but I don't have it with me (it's a lovely 400+ miles away).

I downloaded the translated SNES rom (shame on me, of course) but it's just not the saaaaaaaaaaame!

I'll give it another shot today, but I'm not too big on wasting time on a game that won't save.........that's bogus!
