It's a very tough spot. Can't get the sales without the games and can't get the games without the sales.
I can't blame 3rd parties for being reluctant. PSP wasn't a great game seller even with a 70m base. Vita is too expensive and they are all looking at iOS/Android as the new portable market. 3DS isn't helping either.
Even if Sony cut the price, I don't know if that would be enough to create the kind of momentum Vita needs now.
They need some ingenius marketing to convince us all we can't live without one.
