Why so much sarcasm in this thread? I know some Sony haters are piling on, but a lot of posters are just expressing their valid opinion that Vita is doing poorly, and may not rebound as Sony hopes it will.
I for one want the Vita to do well, and I want Sony to remain a powerhouse in the industry. But the fact is that the 3DS is trending right along with the DS after a similar 19 month window, and the Vita is trending more closely with the Dreamcast.
A price cut would help things, but I think it would only lead to a short-term boost in sales, and then the Vita would slow down again. Sony insists on a very unproductive philosophy with the Vita, and it's summed up best by its new slogan: "console quality on the go." Many people are uninterested in replicating the console experience in a handheld. They want games that can be played in short bursts, they want games that are unavailable on home consoles, and, quite frankly, they want the games Nintendo offers more: Pokemon, Super Mario, Professor Layton, Animal Crossing, Mario Kart, etc.
