As we know by now, the Vita is pretty much dead in the west. (It still has decent sales in Japan though)
Personally, I don't think it deserved to fail. Not at all. I own both a Vita and a 3DS, and I actually have more games for my Vita and play on it more than my 3DS. I would recommend both systems if you can afford it. After all, even buying both costs less than just 1 PS4 or Xbox One.
But, it is what it is, and its sales outside Japan are dismal, selling behind even the Wii in some weeks! So, in your opinion, what was the main factor resulting in the Vita's failure?
All of these factors in the poll contributed, but what do you think was the biggest reason? Personally, I think it was a lack of advertising. I've never seen an ad for the thing. And many people don't know it exists. For example, when I'm playing on my 3DS, some people says "Oh, you have a DS?" whereas when people see me playing on Vita, they say "Hey, what's that?"
So, what happened? Could Sony have done anything to make it more succesful? Or was it doomed to begin with?
