First, Sony said that they dropped Adobe Flash support in the Vita. Next, they said that the Vita will be locked to one PSN account per console. Now, Sony is here with something new saying that some games will require the Vita's proprietary memory card in order to be playable. Sony says that they want every Vita player to have the same brand of memory cards used so that load times will remain the same across the board and that the card requirement is also an anti-piracy method.

The games confirmed for the card requirement include @field, Uncharted: Golden Abyss, Dream Club Zero, Disgaea 3, Hot Shots Golf 6, Monster Raider and Ridge Racer. Three of the titles right off the back are flagship titles so to speak, that made the original Playstation Portable lineup interesting. In case you don't know the prices of the memory card, it's $24.99 for a 4GB, $39.99 for an 8GB, $69.99 for a 16GB and $119.99 for a 32GB.

Now with this tidbit in play, canceled pre-orders anyone?
