A Japanese console modder, who goes on Twitter under the name @Kouchan66, has manufactured a limited number of Memory Stick to Micro Memory Stick flat cables.
While not a terribly novel invention (SD to microSD adapters in the same format do exist), only today this niche-format variant of a niche kind of adapter has become commercially available.
Users of the PSP Go will be able, with minimal internal case modding, to replace their ability to use up-to-16GB, rare and expensive M2 card reader with an original Memory Stick, available in sizes up to 64GB - or with third party single or double microSD converters, supplying their console with up to a theoretical half terabyte of storage on top of the 16GB internal memory!
The kit, sold exclusively online for 2300 yen, includes the adapter itself and a rectangle of conductive double-sided tape, in a size sufficient for two to four applications.
After cutting off the plastic that separates the pins of their Memory Stick, users are supposed to cut said conductive tape to cover the pins of their Memory Stick, and stick on the flat cable so that it faces the inside; the opposite end of the cable can then be coaxed into the M2 slot, similiarly to bare-board Vita2SD adapters, and folded so that the Memory Stick is hidden inside the console.
Further pictures of the adapter and its installation are available from the official sales website.
