Don't know why you'd want to buy a Vita to use as a controller instead of just playing on the vita.

For the same reason I bought a PSP-3000. I want the games, but only if I can play them on my TV. I don't have any reason to play games anywhere else, but my living room.

Do you have a wii u? Unlike the PSP, the Vita has a touch screen. Playing on the tv while touching the screen correctly just doesn't work. Video out would really only be useful for non touch based games and having other people watch. Well PSVITA.TV can already play all those games that don't need touch.

Most vita games don't use detailed touch mechanics, take gravity rush for expample. The touch controls in the game are simply flicking the corner of thhe screen to roll, or holding down both corners to powerskate. You don't have to look down for those functions. The only big Vita game I can think of is Little Big Planet, even then I really don't thing having to occasionally look down is going to kill the experience.  Also Vita's screen and more so its  form factor are much smaller then the wii u. Its easier to blindly use its touch screen.
