It sounds more like Sony is trying to promote the Vita as a PS4 companion in the West, as well as the mobile game streaming capability, along with a few big exclusive games. Handhelds aren't really that big in the West anyway, and declining even more with smartphones and tablets. Japan has an entirely different market strategy, and I don't think the Japan pricecut strategy will apply to a foreign pricecut. |
Banking on the success of the PS4 so sell Vitas can't be their only solution. Not to mention it might piss off people expecting software support and seeing the Vita reduced to an expensive PS4 streamer.

It's not just PS4 streaming. If Sony properly implements Gaikai as planned the Vita will be able to stream any PS game without owning a PS4, with the exception of PS4 games of course, from any high speed internet connection. But that's still an "if" at this point in time.
So it's not just based on PS4 success. It's also based on Gaikai, which could effectively turn the PSV into a PSV123P.
