The '''PocketStation''' was a peripheral for the [[PlayStation (console)|PlayStation]]'s memory card. It was only released in Japan on 23 January [[1999]] and was discontinued sometime in July [[2002]]. The system has been called a combination of a memory card and a personal digital assistant. In order to use the memory card function, it must be plugged into the PlayStation's memory card slots.

Software for the system was usually found as extra content on the game discs. However, stand-alone software could also be downloaded through the PlayStation.

Using built-in infrared technology, data such as game saves could be transferred from PocketStation to PocketStation. This technology also allowed for multiplayer gaming.
