No, they don't need to ditch it. They just need to cut the price to $150 and $199 and actually release some original exclusive PSVita games.

Because Sony loses money with Vita like they do with PS3 since years. But a six years ago Sony was a relatively healthy company so they could afford losing money with PS3 and waiting for a bright future were the PS3 sales rise and they earn money from the games. This future never happened, Sony is still losing money with PS3. Now Sony is an a serious financial crisis and on top of that is losing money with the PS3. Did they really want to have another money eater with Vita?
Sony should concentrate on PS4 and ditch the Vita.

The Vita isn't loosing them money, it is profitable. The PS3 has been selling at a profit since 2009, though I'm not sure if it has removed the costs of selling it at a loss yet but if not it is well on its way.

The PS3 lost Sony over four billion dollars effectively erasing all of the profits generated by the PS1 and PS2. There is no conceivable way for the PS3 to ever make that money back.
