Yes, you can use a 64 GB card on a PSP, but it requires a bit of workaround, as the PSP uses Memory Stick Duo cards, and you’ll need to find an unofficial MicroSD adapter to use a 64 GB MicroSD card. The PSP 1000 and 2000 models can support up to 64 GB of storage using two 32 GB MicroSD cards with an adapter, but keep in mind that file system overhead will reduce the usable storage space.
