Taking USB Flash drive dontations

So here's the story...

I have a great game called Fire Pro Wrestling Returns on PS2. It's, like, the most customizable wrestling game ever.

I need to be able to download created characters from the Internet and load them into my PS2 so that I can do cool stuff like this, this, and this.

It's a lot more complicated than you would think. First, you need to download the files. Then you need to transfer them to your PS2 memory card. It overwrites your current save, so you need to have another memory card to back it up to, and then transfer it to the original memory card.

So after lying to my wife and saying that I was going to the gym after work, I bought a PS2 Action Replay Max with 16MB Memory which (in theory) allows you to copy files from a USB flash drive to a PS2 memory card.

The CD luckily loaded on my PS2. So people were having lots of trouble with that. It recognized the flash drive, but it couldn't see any data on it. I read that it is pretty common for drives that are 1 Gig or more. In fact, most sites recommend a flash drive with only 128 MB.

None of the flash drives lying around my house or office, including our iPods are less than 1 Gig. So if anyone has a smaller one I could borrow and try out, let me know.

If it works, I'll let you come over and play this, this, and this.
