It doesn't matter one damn bit if the vita is 100x better than the competition.
What matters is the sales and cash money it can generate into Sony's wallet.
It is absolutely bad business to produce the best of anything ever built and still go bust because of it.
Based of the PSP sales I never expected vita to set the world alight... more so the western part of it.
If there is another handheld made by Sony I strongly believe it would only be for the Asian market.
As for the question ... well it's one of those pointless ones.
Every fool is a genius when it comes to hindsight and the answer is of no real value.
