PocketStation icon when connected to Memory Card Adaptator

PocketStation

SCPH-4000

The PocketStation is a peripheral (not only as egg easter haunting the ps3) for the PS1, PS2 and PS3. Categorized by Sony as a miniature personal digital assistant (PDA). Connecting to a PlayStation through a memory card slot, the PocketStation also functions as a PlayStation memory card on the PS1/PS2/PS3. It was released exclusively in Japan on January 23, 1999.

Software for the PocketStation was typically distributed as extras for PlayStation games, included in the CD-ROM, enhancing the games with added features. Stand-alone software could also be downloaded through the PlayStation console. The software is then transferred to the PocketStation for use. A built-in infrared data interface allows direct transfer of data such as game saves between PocketStation units, as well as multiplayer gaming.
