Yeah, I was thinking something similar recently. I mean, the Vita has a lot of great games (LittlebigPlanet, Persona, Uncharted, Wipeout, Gravity Rush, Assassin's Creed, Ragnarok Odyssey, etc), but none of them are system-selling must-haves, with the plausible exception of Uncharted. it really needs that game, that outstanding seller that can't be or won't be done on the 3DS. It needs a fully fleshed out San Andreas Stories, or a Gran Turismo, or god of War. It needs inFamous, it needs Metal Gear solid and every other major IP that looks pretty.

Much as I love the Vita (I'm gamrReview's resident Vita reviewer and often get teased for loving it so much), Sony is definitely mishandling it. They say it's a console on the go? well give us huge games, and NOT just ports.

Then again, they did this with Assassin's Creed III: Liberation (which stands as the only game in my reviewing history that I wish I'd given a higher score to), and that wasn't really a major success.

In time it'll have more must-have games. but I don't think ANY games sell systems more than Pokemon, so it'll never best the 3DS.
