The PS Vita still uses a proprietary memory card format, so it's not just download only. The best example of download only would be OnLive, which basically is a game system that only delivers on demand games.
IMHO, it's the market that will determine whether this is the right choice in the long run. It's a creative way to eliminate the used market and stop piracy, but if the consumers don't join up like the PSP Go, it will eventually fail. Sincerely, Eric Tykwinski TrueNet, Inc.

Here's your baseline: Sony Vita. They already tossed the UMD out with the PSP-GO and that failed miserably. Now they are trying again to go to digital only with the Vita. It's not the scale of PS3 or XBOX360 but it may be a good way to gauge the potential success of the concept. -Hammer- "I was a normal American nerd" -Jack Herer On 1/27/2012 7:34 AM, Jared Mauch wrote: > It's already done on a similar scale when apple releases new software for their mobile devices. > > Just don't do it if you are on a low cap plan (eg: mobile, satellite etc).
