- its built like a console and plugged to your TV and only supports a dualshock controller.

- it supports a lot of physical Vita games who are made on Cartridges.

So is this Sonys first Cartridge based console? and the first since the N64?

Cartridges can save your progress since 1987 or something xD without the need for memory cards.

So nope :)   must be something else

The first post made over 3 years ago lists the launch games that can save to the cart rather than needing a memory card. It was mostly first party Sony games which required you save to a card for the sake of selling them, most third party launch games and later on most games can happily save data to the cart.
