Vita also launched in the west in 2014, so they were launch numbers + holiday numbers - potential of sales in January & February.
Vita will be fine in Japan in 2014. Although its sales weren't as strong as I was hoping this year, especially with a price drop/remodel, I hope they've stabilized it in the market more than anything. I don't think there are a great number of hardware movers in 2014 aside from Phantasy Star which should sell on brand name & Sword Art Online which might get lucky if the anime airs concurrently, but hopefully the stream of releases will at least keep it stable.
edit: Just checked the Vita numbers in USA for 2014. Sub 500k. Holy shit, that is absolutely abysmal by any standard.
