What am I seeing here?
⭕ ❌ If this is all new to you, check out our EXPLAINER on memory cards, icons, and gaming history! 🔺 🟥
Original PlayStation memory card icons are really small — only 16 pixels square! That’s awfully tiny for today’s screens so I’ve created 2 versions of each icon: one at 32 pixels that is closer to the original size and a much larger one at 256 pixels
FUN FACT
Here’s another mysterious example of the North American (and European) memory card icon being a static image while the Japanese original is animated. For some reason this seems to happen from time to time, perhaps because localizing a game alters some set of code that also impacts its memory card icons? Maybe it simply goes unnoticed in the process of releasing the game?
