well.. I wouldn't be surprised.. Cave games are high quality but they only make 2D bullet hell shooters.. they released more bullet hell shooter games last year then that there are fans of it.. :(

Well, they announced back in January that they intend to focus on social games going forward. It sounded like a last ditch attempt to... not die, but now they may not even have time to release a single one. This seems very similar to Irem's slow motion demise.

Who are they?

They're not big, so this is not big news. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cave_%28company%29

And they're doing bad, so even though this is bad for Vita, it's not related to Vita.
