PS VITA passes 1 million in Japan, Sony didn't even have to try.

About time! Now, most probably, due to the spotlight being on PS3 Slim Slim now, and most probably on Wii U later, Sony will prefer to delay the price cut and sacrifice total sales for higher profit margin, but next Spring PSV needs it.

About Monster Hunter: PSP received its first one when its user base in Japan was ~2.2M.

Which was afte 50 weeks or so.  The vita has already been out 42 weeks.

User base should be more important for Capcom, but I agree that current sluggish HW sales most probably will help making Capcom wait for a HW user base larger than 2.2M. For example they could ANNOUNCE it when user base will be at least 2.5M or 3M in Japan, but while they surely already established an approximate minimum desired user base, the precise one will be determined from their desired release season.
Moreover, a port will require a lower mnimum user base to be approved, while an exclusive title (or even a multiplat, but new one) will require a larger one.
