The PS vita has been consistantly selling between 20,000 and 40,000 units per week. It obviously needs to sell more.

The Japanese market no longer has Monster Hunter, infact that franchise has defected over to the 3DS and is one of the many reasons the 3DS is doing better over there. The Vita needs to give the Japanese market a reason to care again.

PS Vita still needs a few more system sellers. Killzone Mercenary is a start, but it needs to release more great First Person Shooters, atleast 3 a year(Dual analog sticks is what sets the Vita apart). It needs GTA vita. It needs Bioshock Vita. It needs a title with an amazing story, top notch gameplay and innovation that can only be found on the PS vita. That'll spark the interest of the gamer community and casual community as a whole.

Personally, I'd love to see a few more ports. Borderlands 2 looks great, glad I havent played it yet.

Dishonored Vita would be amazing.
