God of War, Uncharted, Gran Turismo--all great series but I don't think any of them will "put asses in the seats" when it comes to selling the Vita. That franchise that will sell the Vita has yet to be created. Even all of the new IP's that Sony has pushed this gen aren't big enough yet. They still need to grow. Their best bet will be Battle Royal but I don't think that game is going to be huge, either--AND it's not exclusive to the Vita....

Didn't Mick Foley do just that?   Shifting viewers away from Monday Night Nitro to Monday Night Raw and thus win the "Monday Night Wars".  But anyways, each of those franchises alone wouldn't do it, but together they can.  I personally think the bigger problem is the lack of advertising in general;  Uncharted: Golden Abyss should have been marketed as the second coming of christ and Gravity Daze should be given the same treatment... and a Saturday morning cartoon.

My God, you're good.  That's exactly where I got that quote from!  It was from ten or fiteen friggin years ago!! 

And I agree with the rest of your post, too. In the USA, every Vita ad that I've seen has failed to show people the reason that they should buy the console--THE GAMES.  I've seen the guy walking to work while playing baseball.  I've seen a guy hold his Vita up to look at some invisible image in the park.  I've seen a guy walking around with his Vita whilst being watched by another guy playing with his Vita.  I have yet to see a single commercial saying, "HEY, WE HAVE SOME AWESOME GAMES WITH GREAT GRAPHICS."
