Man, the handheld market has really plummeted since the PSP/DS days. The only chance Sony has of getting the Vita to sell more is do what Nintendo does with the 3DS - sell it to kids.

Nothing Sony does will get It to sell like 3DS

I'm sure they can if they make it much cheaper than the competition, drop support for their consoles, spend $50M in the US to market (not make, just market) a kiddy franchise, they'll be able to do 3DS numbers.

So drop the price of Vita to $99, abandon PS3/PS4 and spend $50 million in advertising for Vita Pets? I still think 3DS would still outsell it.
