The PocketStation is a memory card peripheral by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation home video game console.

The device acted not only as a memory card, but was interactive itself via a small monochrome LCD display and buttons on its case.

[2][1] The original Japanese ship date for the PocketStation was set for December 23, 1998, but it was delayed a full month.

[7][8] Despite this, a few games, such as Final Fantasy VIII and SaGa Frontier 2, retained PocketStation functionality in their localized versions.

Categorized by Sony as a combination of a Memory Card and a miniature personal digital assistant, the device features a monochrome liquid crystal display (LCD), infrared communication capability, a real-time clock, built-in flash memory, and sound capability.
