DRM.... they where scared of piracy and so took it upon themselves to try and make their own memory technology.
They shouldnt have.

If piracy was the reason, the price of the cards wouldn't have needed to be this high.

The actual reason for the proprietary cards is that the Vita was made powerful and consequently sold at a loss to remain competitive on price, so the memory cards - a must-buy for every consumer because not all games could save on their own game card - made that money back for Sony.

Or.... R&D to make your own technology is expensive?
