a system with over 20M users and only has 8 0.5M sellers? no wonder everyone is investing in smartphones.

I agree with this.

Think about it for a second, the 3DS, which is the most popular, best-selling handheld in the world, which is destroying its only direct competition in the floundering, lack-luster, disappointing Vita, only has 8 0.5M sellers.

Smartphones definitely could be impacting this.

This part of the story can only be definitively concluded when you compare the performance of 3rd parties on 3DS/Vita with the performance of those on say GameBoy.

Something I don't feel like doing right now

It has only 8 - .5m sellers of 3rd party games, yes.  However, it's library as a whole contains 20 sellers of over .5m, 6 over 1m, and 2 over 6m.  Vita doesn't even have a million seller yet, first party included.
