Review: You may not like the price, but it does what it's supposed to. - First, a disclaimer: I've been gaming for 26 of my 29 years on this planet and I've seen just about everything the industry has to offer to the consumer market. This also means I've seen pretty much everything in Sony's bag of tricks so far, and none of it really phase me. Doesn't mean I like it, or that I'm for or against Sony, it just means I've been around this block before a few times now. That said, I hate to call attention to the fact that any one who decides to knock off points for the price of this card isn't being fair. Yeah, the price is steep on top of everything else you'll need to get the Vita going, but at this point it really shouldn't surprise you that Sony will pull a proprietary memory card out of its hat for an exorbitant price. Thats just what you get when you go Sony. If you think cutting some stars off here is going to get them to knock down the price, you don't know Sony. Start a letter writing campaign or a petition, that might net better results. Really, since you have no choice but to use these cards, because Vita games require them, until someone comes out with a cheaper alternative (which as of my writing this, hasn't been mentioned as far as I know.. Usually Sandisk will do something like this) your only choices if you want to buy a Vita is to get a card, whichever size it happens to be, Or just not get a Vita at all.. Which is extremely limiting and disappointing, if you had your hopes up. If you do get a Vita and need a card, you need a card that works -And these cards do work. I have a 16gb and an 8gb ab both work perfectly, no bells and whistles, you just put it in your Vita and it'll start saving things to it. In fact, you can't really do too much with the Vita without putting a card in at all. You try to download or play anything and it'll quickly tell you your missing this vital piece of hardware. Seriously, the product works and that's all you need to know. Prices may be high, and they may drop one day, but till then you need to stomach them if you want to use this system -till then at least know they aren't selling you a shoddy item.
Review: Great memory card - I like it. It's good. It works is nice.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I plan on having a lot of games so which one is best to use?**
A: Try to buy as many game card games to keep that content off of your memory flash card but honestly these are ludicrous when you think you compare a PC solid-state drive price-per-GB to one of these proprietary ploys.  Xbox 360 memory cards were the same scam so the entire consumer base should feel a bit embarrassed that this era of dirt-cheap flash drives allowed for a $30.91 16GB memory stick.

**Q: can I just use a non play station brand micro sd card or an sd card?**
A: No a sd card will not work on the ps vita. Only the sony brand memory sticks can be used for the ps vita.

**Q: I'm thinking about getting the 16GB if I turn off my vita and switch the memory cards will the games I downloaded still be on my vita?**
A: No. You will have to re-download them. You can, alternately, install Sony's Content Manager Assistant and back up your current card to your computer. Turn your vita off, take the old car out and put in the fresh one. Then restore it to your new card.You can also keep different games on each memory card and switch them around when the time comes.

**Q: Does this work for the PS3?**
A: No. Only vita

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great memory card
*by O***I on April 3, 2026*

I like it. It's good. It works is nice.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent storage for specific downloads
*by T***N on January 1, 2016*

I have purchased this earlier in December(2015) for $20 on Amazon. I have to say that is much better than paying $40, which is insane! $20 is still a little bit steep, but definitely an improvement. I didn't come here to state the obvious though. Durability: I have a 4GB, 8GB, and 64GB I longer needed. I have used all for a year, and had no problems. Storage space: This depends on what you download, and maybe the VITA model as well. 2GB is reserved for the system, so you'll have 14GB. You may be able to hold 4 VITA games(more, or less). This includes 4 hours of videos, 400 songs, and 400 photos. These are just approximates though, which are based on the retail packaging of course. This is still just an estimate. It varies with memory size of content. I don't know why the information is different on the site. Here's what I currently have on my card: -Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time and PlayStation Allstars Battle Royale(from cross-buy for Vita) -Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves (Vita) -FFVIII (PS1 Classic) -Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver (PS1 Classic) -Castlevania: SotN (PS1 Classic) -Gex 2: Enter the Gecko (PS1 Classic) -Run Sackboy! Run! (PSN Game) -patches/DLC add-ons/saves I still have over 2000MB(2GB) of the card left. This might be good if you just want it for a couple to a few digital VITA games only. You would still have plenty of storage for certain PSN games, PS1, games, and other content. It all depends on what you're looking for. If you need it to hold more than 4 VITA games, I do not recommend it. Definitely buy it if you want the card. I highly recommend keeping the purchase total between $20-$25. Any higher is a big ripoff. If you're even lucky of getting it lower, then go for it! Go for the 32GB, or 64GB if you mainly want VITA games. Remember that patches are counted here. You may also want certain add-ons.
