PlayStation Vita Memory Card 64GB (PCH-Z641J)

March 23rd I bought, August 20th it died. What happened? Well, the PS Vita stopped reading the memory card. Yes, my PS Vita can still read memory cards, as I have tried others. This is also why I like to wait to write reviews on things such as electronics. After this experience I regret buying it. I bought it for the convenience of having a lot of memory, however, that was short lived, about 5 full months, it lasted. Considering the price, thats pathetic...now if only I could get a replacement from the seller or a refund... Look Ive tried everything, you can look it up and read all this other review talking about the same thing...in the end get the 32gb card or 16gb. Yes, It would be awesome to have a lot of games on 1 system; however, it seems the higher you go, the more problems.

Today I got my 64GB memory card for the PS Vita/PS TV. I first tried it in the PS TV and it works fine. It shows 60GB of usable memory, which is probably going to be more than enough. I dont think Ill be swapping the card out from the Vita to the TV because every time you move it from one to the other, it rearranges all of your downloaded games, which is annoying if you ask me. I got my Vita the day it came out and I just recently filled up all but 212MB of space on the 32GB card I got when I bought it. While I think it is overpriced for what it is (like most of the other posts Ive read), I believe youll get your moneys worth out of it as you fill it up with whatever you put on your Vita/PS TV.

This memory card was an upgrade for me from a 32GB card. It has had no issues so Im pleased with it so far. The extra space is such a relief, due to all those wonderful PlayStation Plus games offered in the past year or 2. Interesting note: If you use Content Manager on PC, you might want to uninstall/reinstall it so that it doesnt get that error where it says you have 2 PS Vita systems being used at the same time. It seems to register a new memory card as another PS Vita system. That was the only slight problem I had, but it was fixable by reinstalling the program and updating the library for it.

This is the the biggest available memory card on the market. Yes, its expensive. Yes, its proprietary. Yes, its not available in the USA yet. If you really must have a PS Vita memory card, and plan to download games, whether they be PS1 classics or full PS Vita games, this is the card for you. It is currently compatible with both the North American PS Vita and PS Vita Slim. Copying information from your old memory card to this one is as easy as plugging your PS Vita with the old memory card into your PC and selecting memory management in the PS Vita options. Create a backup, then plug the new memory card in, restore the backup to the new memory card. No hassle. This same process can be completed using your PS3 or PS4 as well.

Feels great finally upgrading from a 4gb I had since launch of Feb 2012 to a 64gb! Seriously if youre an avid gamer, its really just go hard out go home. Ive put off buying a vita memory card because of the prices but I finally listened to that voice in my head telling me to upgrade after all these years. Plus Ive been playing my vita a good amount lately, thanks to helldivers. Finally getting to use the download code for ffx2 HD that came with X, and many many more games. I have been reading reviews that the memory card stops being read by the vita. Not sure if its a scam to get people to buy the replacement plan or they didnt properly back up/restore their vita. I own the phat version and will update if anything goes wrong with the memory card. But for now, im very satisfied with my purchase.

A little pricey, but this is the best option for your PS Vita, especially if youre looking to do a lot of digital downloads from the PSN store. It will be able to store most of your gaming and media needs with some room to spare. Previously I had purchased an 8 gb card when I bought the Vita, but that quickly filled up, so I was looking for something with a little bit more memory and this was the biggest option they had. I transported all of my files and savegames from my other memory card via Sonys own memory transfer program that works on both Mac and PC, and now I dont have to worry about using up all my space. Like I said, the price is a little on the high side for a memory card, and Sony sucks you in with their specific Vita memory cards, but if you use your Vita a lot, this one is a no-brainer.

Yes, its hard to swallow the price of this card, and it would be nice if it didnt have to be imported to the US, but that being said, I am EXTREMELY happy to have it. I really like the idea of going all-digital for many reasons, like 1. dont have to take extra time to shuffle around game cards if you want to switch out games when youre on the go, 2. dont have to find space to carry all the extra cards when traveling, 3. environmentally friendly, 4. load times seem to be more forgiving with some titles, and 5. with some patience, I have largely been able to find digital sales for games that well exceed physical sale prices. I had been juggling two 8g cards since the launch of the Vita Slim (pain in the culo), and since that time I have saved so much money on digital sales, I decided to grab a 64g card. Shortly after, I was gifted a one-year PS+ subscription, and am stoked to have this card now for the IGL as well as for the PSP and PSOne library titles. I have 41 games on this card and still have over 25g to spare. I would also say that for the current price of a 32g card, it made more sense to me to pay the little bit extra for the 64g card. So, something else to think about there, because I dont think Ill be hurting for space any time soon. I havent had any issues at all with this card and transferring data or recognizing content. The shipping was very fast (much faster than the estimated time by weeks). I really cant think of any reason for a Vita owner not to have this card, ESPECIALLY if they are a PS+ subscriber.

I bought a ps vita slim two years ago, packed it away for safe keeping plus the fact I didn’t have the money for a memory card at the time, found it again and am so glad I got the 64 gb from Sony on Amazon. It’s better than paying $130 for a REBURBISHED one at GameStop. There weren’t a lot of ps vita games out when I bought it, none that interested me anyways lol but as soon as I saw what was available i knew that I wanted to play the vita again with as much memory as possible. I have a wish list with almost 30 games, I’ve already bought 3 of those. 64 gbs will provide more than enough room, plus I can always download a few movies or some music :) I’m happy with my purchase

While the card itself is wonderful, I find the pricing to be quite excessive. The Vita has an expansive digital-only library (including all of the PS1 classics available on PSN), and having this card is almost a must-have for die hard Vita gamers. Odds are, it will fill up eventually, because there are many full retail games out there that take up quite a bit of space if you download them (Final Fantasy X/X-2 for example, take up over 10gb alone). Add to that the fact that many games coming out that are full-release in Japan (such as Warriors Orochi 3, Sword Art Online, and Freedom Wars) are getting digital-only releases in the US, and the 64gb doesnt go nearly as far as one would hope. Despite all this, the product works as expected, and allows access to dozens of games without switching cards or carts. A small side note: As many other reviewers have mentioned, the ACTUAL space on the card is 59gb, and as another reviewer explained that this discrepancy arises due to a difference in binary and metric measuring, and is a common practice when labeling storage space. _____________________ *Pros* -Best price-to-gb ratio -Plenty of space for smaller games (PS1/PSP/minis) -Easy to use (pop it in and youre good to go) -No more cart/card switching for a while. *Cons* -Prohibitively expensive -Full releases will fill up the card fast -Less storage than advertised
