PlayStation 3 Compatibility Website
As more people have a PlayStation 3 now, I figured this would be more useful now than it was at the time, so I reposted it. The compatibility issue only applies to people with backwards compatible PS3s that don’t include the Emotion Engine.
Also, a few people asked about it anyway.
Sony recently put up a website for people to check the compatibility of PlayStation 1 and PlayStation 2 games with PlayStation 3:
Your version of Kingdom Hearts may result in problems but Kingdom Hearts II shouldn’t. You need to check your product code (found on the spine of the box or on the disk) first. Click to enlarge:
Riku Edit: Apparently if you have the latest software update, codes SCES-50968 and SCES-50969 now run without problems. SCES-50967, previously unlisted, has minor issues. SCES-50970 still has major noticeable issues, and apparently SCES-50971 also does now too. Any codes beginning SLUS should work without issues.

lol I’m playing KH 2 on my PS3 sinds last month xD
on 14 Apr 2008 at 2:39 pm 5. Kingdom1286
Lol. We already know we can play PS1 and PS2 games on PS3. I play KH2 on my PS3 about 1 year ago. But this is great! I would hope KH3 would come to PS3.
on 14 Apr 2008 at 5:14 pm 6. thanatos98
im yet to get a ps3 im waiting for ff13 to come out
because there arn’t any good ps3 games out yet
on 14 Apr 2008 at 5:49 pm 7. thanatos98
what about SLUS21005 ????
on 14 Apr 2008 at 6:02 pm 8. Namine
yah i have that one to! does it work?
on 14 Apr 2008 at 7:15 pm 9. Riku
Any unlisted on the website are supposed to run without any trouble.
on 14 Apr 2008 at 7:58 pm 10. thanatos98
SWEET!!!!!!
THAT TOOK A LOAD OFF MY MIND THANKS RIKU!!!
on 15 Apr 2008 at 8:46 pm 11. Namine
yah. i just hope its true… i dont want to get one and then have stuff not working on it
on 16 Apr 2008 at 1:55 am 12. Katie
Whoot, I have SLUS, so I’m all good! I can’t wait to get my PS3 so I can play some PS2 games that didn’t work after I broke my PS2. xD
on 16 Apr 2008 at 3:29 pm 13. Riku
Mine’s SCES-50967, which would be annoying, except for the fact that a guy on eBay screwed me over when I got my PS3 claiming it was the 60GB version. It’s actually the 40GB version with an upgraded to 60GB HD, which means that it’s not backwards compatible at all and I payed more than I should’ve done for it.
on 16 Apr 2008 at 4:30 pm 14. thanatos98
riku: u should report him can get all ur money back and keep the ps3
on 16 Apr 2008 at 6:40 pm 15. Riku
Unfortunately not - He had written it on there in a miniscule font in small print under the small print - Twas annoying.
on 16 Apr 2008 at 6:50 pm 16. thanatos98
what a b******
on 16 Apr 2008 at 8:52 pm 17. KHfan
i have an 80g, so i think its backwards compatable. though the last time i tried to fight the huge heartless in the space paranoids in kh2, the game glitched and i couldnt beat it so i had to start a new file.
on 16 Apr 2008 at 10:23 pm 18. Kelsey
Does the ps2 games work on the 40g because my friend say they don’t and i really want to get kingdom hearts and final fantasy.
on 17 Apr 2008 at 4:32 am 19. Riku
Sorry - 40GB is the only type that isn’t backwards compatible (which is another reason why I’m so annoyed with that guy). If you already have a PS2, just keep using that.
on 17 Apr 2008 at 12:00 pm 20. Kelsey
crap, i dont have a ps2 so now i cant play them.
on 17 Apr 2008 at 4:19 pm 21. Hearts of Darkness
Swoot! Thanks! I’ve been wonder If I should get a memory card adapter for my PS3, so I guess I will.
on 17 Apr 2008 at 4:24 pm 22. thanatos98
when i get my ps3 i will keep my ps2 just in case so i still play all my ps2 games
how many of u guys/girls have a psp??
on 17 Apr 2008 at 7:44 pm 23. Kelsey
what does the memory card adapter do?
on 17 Apr 2008 at 11:43 pm 24. thanatos98
so like u need a memory card adapter to use the old memory cards?
on 18 Apr 2008 at 4:03 am 25. thanatos98

I don’t know about you but i think Square is planning someting big! It’s gotten very quiet lately.
And summer is coming up fast.
on 19 Apr 2008 at 10:41 pm 28. Namine
Or else they just wont give any more information. i hope final mix come out in the US! I want to play re:CoM!
on 20 Apr 2008 at 1:58 pm 29. thanatos98

those spammers they all need a life and they have nothing better to do than to post spam under some one else’s name and to the rest of u sorry for my rude language By the way to this spammer i don’t know what u get out of this but get a life and i u hate SE so much why don’t u write a letter and see if they care and i assure u they don’t give a dame
on 21 Apr 2008 at 11:55 pm 33. Riku
Deleted - I have no idea why the language filter isn’t working, but I’ll see if I can fix it.
on 22 Apr 2008 at 1:30 am 34. The real: Thanatos98
thanks
on 22 Apr 2008 at 11:27 am 35. KenowaX
I think sora’s adventue will finish at KH4 or 5
Then they will make a new hero for it.
Remember, now that FF is over they will focus a lot of work in KH
on 22 Apr 2008 at 3:41 pm 36. KHobsessive
what final fantasy is actually over?! wow i dont pay much attention…
on 22 Apr 2008 at 4:30 pm 37. Thanatos98
yup supoably ff13 is the last ff game SE is making
but i think they will end i with kh3
just my opinion
on 22 Apr 2008 at 7:18 pm 38. Luke
what about KH2FM+? I’ve been wondering if Jap PS2 games can play on American PS3 consoles.
on 22 Apr 2008 at 8:49 pm 39. Thanatos98
i don’t think so
on 23 Apr 2008 at 3:08 am 40. Final Form Sora
They can in a sense. You need a special device who’s name escapes me at the momement. You hook it up to your PS2, put the foreign game in and voila! It should work. If I remember the name i’ll post it here.
on 23 Apr 2008 at 1:47 pm 41. KenowaX
Yes FF13 is the last FF. They won’t make a 14th.
on 23 Apr 2008 at 4:47 pm 42. skatiaris

where can i find kh birth by sleep to buy it?
on 24 Apr 2008 at 1:43 am 43. Thanatos98

on 24 Apr 2008 at 4:01 am 44. Thanatos98
skatiaris : what dose that mean what u said in another language? and if ur complaining about thous posts that wasn’t me some one is posting spam using my name
on 25 Apr 2008 at 3:06 am 45. exdeath64
do you have ANY idea how much money SE makes a YEAR off of final fantasy! they wont kill the series until they stop making money off of it. Oh, would anyone like to see a final fantasy VIII sequel? they did it with VII and it turned out okay.
on 25 Apr 2008 at 4:23 pm 46. KHobsessive
hey, final form sora, is it swap magic your thinking of?
on 25 Apr 2008 at 11:01 pm 47. Thanatos98
exdeath64: that would be sweet
on 26 Apr 2008 at 12:20 am 48. Thanatos98
Riku: i signed up for staff but i got no e-mail whats up with that?????
on 26 Apr 2008 at 1:23 am 49. exdeath64
how DO you get on the staff anyway?
on 26 Apr 2008 at 4:05 am 50. Riku
I can do nothing about Staff Profiles. Only Sora has the ability to accept/deny/change the privelidges, and as he’s abandoned the site, Kota and I are the only people with rights to post news. You can post drafts of news which can be reviewed, and, if good enough, they’ll be posted under your name on the main page.
I say that, Aerith and I are the only two editors (except Sora) and Aerith left quite a long time ago.
Leaving it up to me, and as I’m not committed to this site much at all anymore, there are over 200 unread post drafts that I’ll probably never go through.
This site is slowly dying, and if Sora doesn’t return, it’ll be gone in a couple of months.
As for an FFVIII sequel, FFVIII had a “complete story” whereas FFVII always left it open to more possibilities. I doubt they’ll ever make a sequel to FFVIII. FFIX on the other hand, I would love to see a sequel to, although there are far less possibilities of stories available than FFVII had.
FFVIII and FFIX could both have prequels. I’d love to see more history behind the stories.
on 26 Apr 2008 at 8:20 am 51. KenowaX
I know that the FF7 sequal isn’t finished yet but i also know that they will not make a 14th final fantasy
on 26 Apr 2008 at 1:59 pm 52. Riku
The FFVII Sequel was Advent Children. We’re not talking about remakes here.
They are going through the series for the 20th Anniversary remaking all of the older Final Fantasies, currently up to FFIV. Tetsuya said a few years ago that he might make a remake of FFVII if he finishes many of his other projects. Since then he’s said he wants to concentrate more on Kingdom Hearts than Final Fantasy, but that doesn’t mean the FFXIII will be the last.
A lot people have assumed FFXIII will be the last purely because Tetsura Nomura “likes the number 13″, but it’s purely a rumour.
on 26 Apr 2008 at 11:10 pm 53. KHobsessive
likes the number 13 lol xD
on 27 Apr 2008 at 12:04 am 54. exdeath64
I agree with the IX sequel idea, it would be interesting to see what happened to terra, and to actually HEAR the characters.
on 27 Apr 2008 at 12:05 am 55. exdeath64
sorry, that should be PREQUEL…
on 27 Apr 2008 at 11:54 am 56. KenowaX
They are making a remake of ff7 it will be for ps3. Check on youtube or gametrailers, there is a trailer of the game. It was also in FF7 crisis core ending.
on 27 Apr 2008 at 4:39 pm 57. metallimaniac
Na, i doubt they’re gunna remake FFVII. Tht special cutscene at the end of crisis core was just the intro to the original FFVII bt wit updated graphics. Looked pretty much the same as the TECH DEMO tht square-enix done for the PS3…just a DEMO!!!
would be nice to see, bt i highly doubt it
and it only tells you to go on to play FFVII after finishing crisis core…not ‘we’re gonna remake FFVII soon’
on 28 Apr 2008 at 2:33 am 58. Riku
Although it was originally purely for the PS3 Tech Demo, Tetsuya said in a following interview that, as there was such high demand for a remake and everyone’s hopes were raised, he would consider creating one after all his major projects were complete.
Admittedly that was about 2-3 years ago now…
on 28 Apr 2008 at 8:04 pm 59. Thanatos98
do any of u have crisis core yet
on 01 May 2008 at 9:02 am 60. KenowaX
The first kh358/2 days should come out in about 1 month now. Let’s be patient a little longer
on 01 May 2008 at 9:03 am 61. Kenowa
I forgot to say the trailer not the game -_-
on 01 May 2008 at 1:07 pm 62. Thanatos98
true i wonder if its any good?
on 03 May 2008 at 2:50 pm 63. KH Lover
ugh. no new info for the longest time! ive checked so many sites and they post the same stuff and its sooo annoying! (btw twewy is such a good game! the ending almost made me cry!) so yea. this is getting on my nerves. and khinsider.com is soo much better.
on 03 May 2008 at 3:15 pm 64. KH Lover
I have a question for u riku. why would you ignore the drafts? if u didnt, then you would have more posts, more people would come and join the staff, and this site wouldnt be dieing! i mean come on. look at it! theres nothing new! try maybe changing the layout or something! if you’re too lazy tell me and ill try! i goined the staff so thats not a problem. so come on do something!
on 03 May 2008 at 4:12 pm 65. KHobsessive
hey riku, where did sora go? and will aerith be back?
on 04 May 2008 at 3:51 am 66. Riku
KH Lover, the drafts are awful, and the majority aren’t news. For example:
“Hi I’m heartlessgirl200 and I’m a Kingdom Hearts fan!!! My friend Amanda got me interested when the game first came out and I loved it! I’ve played bits and pieces Kingdom Hearts Chain Of Memories but I really want to play all of it! Once it goes on playstation 2 I’ll play it and Final Mixes too!! I love Sora and Riku their my favorite! But………I also like Xemnas too! My other friend so far is roxaslover200 my friend at school! I love Square Enix for making Kingdom Hearts American Version!!!”
“Is kh3 all that special I’d like to know waiting for response”
“Hey Guys! KH Freak here with a quick update!
Sephiroth one of the hardest bosses!
Sephiroth(Sephy) is so hard, that gamerhelp.com has listed him in their “The Hardest Game Bosses Of All Time”. I’m sure many of you would agree that he definitely deserves that spot. So do you think he deserves it? I do!
Well KH Freak Signing Off!
Source: KHinsider.”
There are literally hundreds of these, 99% of which are utter nonsense or completely pointless.
on 04 May 2008 at 3:52 am 67. Riku
KHobsessive, Aerith won’t be back, and I have no idea where Sora’s gone or if he’s ever returning.
on 04 May 2008 at 3:57 am 68. Riku
Also, Sora is the only one with the privileges to change the looks and layout, and is also the only one able to change the privileges of others, meaning that only Kota and I can post the news posts or place the drafts on the page.
on 04 May 2008 at 3:56 pm 69. KH Lover
aww…thats sad. (now i know why u dont read the drafts ;)) i wrote somethin’ but i didnt do that i posted some acctual info. not a lot since there wasn’t a lot i could find, but its still something
all i wanted 2 say.
on 04 May 2008 at 3:57 pm 70. KH Lover
does sora maybe have an e-mail? maybe u could send an e-mail 2 him…
on 04 May 2008 at 9:49 pm 71. KHobsessive
awwwww well i hope he returns! yea u should email him.
on 04 May 2008 at 10:33 pm 72. Final Form Sora
defenitely. your doing a great job Riku, but its not easy. i would like a few more people to help.
on 05 May 2008 at 1:27 pm 73. Thanatos98
i don’t mind helping i can do what i can
that if u can contact Sora that is
on 05 May 2008 at 1:32 pm 74. Hannah
My kh1 number isnt on here!? would it work?
on 05 May 2008 at 2:34 pm 75. Arisato Minato
thanatos??persona 3 fan huh?
on 05 May 2008 at 3:14 pm 76. Riku
I tried to get in contact with him a few months ago with no luck. Kota seemed to have managed to, but only for a very brief time and didn’t talk about the site. The last I heard, he went out to get chicken and didn’t return.
Hannah, what’s the number?
on 05 May 2008 at 5:04 pm 77. Hannah
SLUS20370GH thats my number. would it work??
on 05 May 2008 at 9:32 pm 78. Riku
Read the last line of the article - *sigh*
on 05 May 2008 at 10:35 pm 79. Thanatos98
have u tried lately????
on 06 May 2008 at 3:23 am 80. Riku
Nope, but even if I did, he wouldn’t do much about it. He’ll only let people he really trusts edit the site, and as he hasn’t been around, he won’t have seen all of you guys and whether you’d be suitable to take up another editor post.
In summer I may make my own site, as this site is on track to die out completely. Already fewer people are visiting and/or commenting, and personally I see no reason to attempt to redeem it.
on 07 May 2008 at 4:08 am 81. Final Form Sora
i suppose you’re right. If you need any help, i’m available. I have some experience in web design and i know kingdom hearts in out. i even have the trading card game. if you wanna talk to me just post something on here and i’ll give you my email.
on 07 May 2008 at 4:19 pm 82. KHobsessive
yea it would be good if you made your own site, well i would visit,
on 07 May 2008 at 11:59 pm 83. exdeath64
what do you think about the next game featuring final fantasy worlds, i would love to take out a final fantasy boss OTHER then sephiroth (namely kefka)…
on 09 May 2008 at 5:01 pm 84. KHobsessive
reno would be sooo awesome if he were in kingdom hearts
on 09 May 2008 at 9:03 pm 85. KH Lover
yea it would be awsome if there was a new awsomer site…not saying this site is bad, but u know…yea. so do u know ur gonna call ur site?

I even have the TCG. lol. I’m not sure if you’ve visited the site recently so i was just puttin’ this back out here.
on 13 May 2008 at 3:06 pm 88. Riku
Final Form Sora, I appreciate that but I don’t think you should post your e-mail here.
Bad luck to anyone posting from the Boys and Girls Club of Metro Denver, but I’m deleting any future posts from there due to disruption.
on 14 May 2008 at 1:09 am 89. Final Form Sora
hey riku, thanks for replying. if you do decide to make a new site post the new info here so i can check it out. thx!

Actually, I’ve already said that only the owner of the site has the privelidge of blocking you.
Any reason why you’re wasting your life posting here?
