Even with better games in the fall, I think the Vita is screwed.
The "hip teenager" Sony demographic wants for the Vita in the West is going to be cannibalized by the launch of the iPhone 5 and iPad mini and even the 3DS XL and Wii U (quasi-portable around the home). Though actually I think Apple is a bigger crimp in Sony's ambitions.
I just don't see this product being on the top of very many shopping lists, and once people have blown all their electronic gadget spending budget somewhere else ... that's the problem.
It's a vicious competetive climate out there. Also to both Nintendo and Sony -- $40 handheld games is never going to fly. Nintendo can sort of get away with it because of the power of their core franchises, but Sony is not in that same boat.

This topic has nothing to do with Apple or Nintendo, stay on topic.

As far as discussing Vita's prospects to the market this fall, sure it does. Unless we live in some hypothetical world in which Vita is the only portable entertainment device available.
