My PS3 keeps asking to connect the controller via USB and press the PS button and sometimes it says it cannot start and the appropriate system storage was not found. I bought this SSD in February and I also have the former issue with the stock HDD and with the HDD I bought in August 2021 but I never had the latter one with the stock HDD and with the HDD I bought in August 2021.

EDIT: I'm currently not having the latter issue and I have the former from time to time. I only had the former problem that day.

EDIT 2: I haven't had the latter issue.

EDIT 3: I had the latter issue again.

EDIT 4: I was told in PSX-Place the PS3 saying it cannot start and the appropriate system storage was not found problem was a known issue if using a SSD since the PS3 doesn't support it and lacks some features to handle it well.

EDIT 5: I formatted the SSD and the PS3 said it cannot start and the appropriate system storage was not found again. I'll swap the SSD for the HDD I bought in August 2021.

EDIT 6: I haven't had both issues on the HDD.

    @Kirbydogs, It's the same as Animal Crossing New Leaf but with Amiibo capabilities.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    And that game was released in 2012 lol.

    Yeah, only played New Horizons before.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Kirbydogs, You gotta start off with Wild World, then move onto New Leaf, then tell me what you think was the best AC game.
  • Kirbydogs @ Kirbydogs:
    Ok, will do.
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    New Leaf is still my only favorite Animal Crossing game of all-time.

    Nintendo used to give away free house decorations through QR codes for ACNL.
  • Kirbydogs @ Kirbydogs:
    Woah, that's pretty interesting!
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    @Kirbydogs It's a long story...
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    I very much dislike New Horizons that's for sure, I got it on release day, and I always disliked it, but I didn't expect that it would end up actually being universally bad and disliked.

  • Kirbydogs @ Kirbydogs:
    My only problem is that it gets *pretty* boring...
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    The games before New Leaf, I did play each of them for a bit, but never really got into them that much
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    New Leaf was my first Animal Crossing game, and I spent so many years with it, it's a very important part of my past, so many great memories, it's just such a great game, it is my favorite of all time, and probably the game I spent the most time on, too.
  • Kirbydogs @ Kirbydogs:
    Makes sense!
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    Well, that's long story short.
  • Kirbydogs @ Kirbydogs:

  • Kirbydogs @ Kirbydogs:

  • IC_ @ IC_:
    And you can fall into holes in the ground when getting up from a rock!
