Hacking [Discussion] Ps Vita Flashcard

[chikenstew]

Is a flashcart even possible with the small size of a Vita card in mind? I mean all the electronic stuff needs to fit inside the small space.

Besides, aren't vita carts way thinner than say nds/3ds carts?

Well, but it still contains electronics instead of magic and got pins on the end, that means they can easily be bridged to the outside of the slot, and there you have enough room for microcontrollers and flash-storage
The only reason, that wasn't done with 3ds-flashcards was because it wasn't necesarry

A Vita card is somewhat smaller than a 3DS card, but not crazy much; found this pic online:

And indeed it wouldn't matter if you have a little piece sticking out. The problem of course is a way in, no MSET on the VITA. Are there any QR Code games on the VITA like Cubic Ninja? How abount injecting save games using a PS3 for which you know the CID so you can use manipulated PS3 backups (including a doctored VITA backup that you can restore to the VITA)?

As I'm not sure where to suggest this, and this is relatively close to what I'd suggest... Would it be possible for a passthrough cartridge, to allow any ps vita game to work on ps tv? (Even on the latest firmware.)

If such a cartridge would be possible (faking one games ID while playing another) encryption on the games would have been compromised and thus flashcards without the need of actual exploits to make them run would allready be out.
