Blimey, with Sony refusing to cut the price of the Vita until next year I think it would be safe to say it's pretty much buggered tbh...unless there's an exclusive Dragon Quest, Monster Hunter or Final Fantasy title on the way that hasn't been announced yet.

I can't understand the decision making at Sony tbh, they ran away with the 5th and 6th home console generations with modest hardware and have struggled since joining an arms race as far as power goes with the PSP, PS3 and Vita. And going by leaks so far they're doing the same thing with the PS4 - if Sony and Microsoft have their next home consoles retailing for more than 400 dollars/pounds then they might as well not bother releasing them what with the U likely to retail for around 300 with a 2D Mario title as a launch title and Dragon Quest X on the way.

You'll probably see the U having an installed userbase between 10 and 15m before the PS4 and 720 are released, and if they don't both sell well they could very well end up like the PS3 did during the first two years of its life and the Vita now.
