Honestly, what was Sony thinking regarding Vita memory cards?

i agree with you its just greed.

Seriously  Gameboy games allowed you to save your progress 20 years ago. Vita carts cant?

I also was thinking about buying a vita 10x or so but everytime I was like "ah shit I need a memory card  fuck it"

if the memory cards were purely optional for people that want PSN games okay. But making it proprietary was extremely stupid.
I can buy a 64GB SDXC card for 20€ But have to pay like 36€ for a 16GB vita memory card  and 77€ for a 32gb version.

A quick search on Amazon shows that you can have 128GB cards for $70.

At this point, though, I bet they see the Vita as such a lost cause they don't even care anymore.

FYI $ =/=€    also US =/= EU.

Good luck finding a 64GB version on Amazon Germany.

In Germany you cannot even order a 64GB Memory card. its a Japan import. The biggest memory card you can find is the 32gb version. The most common is the 16gb version

Why does sony do this? Because Europe is Sony land.

LOL I know, I was talking about SD cards. :p

The ship has sailed on cutting memory prices to boost sales at this point. Neither Sony or third parties are putting enough effort into Vita development to foster more interest; without that, any other steps they take at this point won't be enough.
