Remember when Sony made you use a proprietary mini SD card for your handheld instead of just allowing the format that was already in place and widely adopted?
Was that the memorystick pro duo, which actually beat even many early UHS-I SD cards at write and read speeds?
The Vita used overpriced proprietary memory cards.
Interesting, from what I can find online even though it's unique to the vita it's still just the memorystick pro duo protocol under the hood, with a DRM system similar to the one Sony uses for their modern CFExpress Type A cards.
