Yay, Marigold returns!

Besides the list missing 8-track there was those min-CDs, not mini disk but just a small form factor CD that would more times than not get jammed up or just not play in most "made for the American market" players. The carried singles from various artists though some marketing genius though it would be cool for software distribution.
I also have kicking around both an audio tape and a video tape player, no cassettes, just spools of reel to reel tape with video data instead of audio.
Then there is the weird stuff :-D
BenRG:
The mini-CDs were created and patented by Sony, IIRC. They were originally designed as a music-storage medium but the only significant application that I ever saw in the UK was as the main read-only medium for the PlayStation Portable games console.

Yes, please!
pwhodges:
Mini-CDs have been fairly commonly used by Chinese (especially) companies for the drivers supplied with video cards, webcams, and the like; They could make the boxes smaller than the 5 inches enforced by a normal CD.
