Hopefully it continues and Vita does even better this year than in 2013. Given the games its getting, particularly Phantasy Star Nova, I'm confident it'll improve (though is that definitely coming in 2014?)

Yes.  Though I question what impact it'll have on hardware.  Phantasy Star fans already kind of exist on Vita (PSO2) and hunting game fans already exist on Vita (Soul Sacrifice; Toukiden; God Eater; Ragnarok Odyssey etc.)

They should LE console it at least to move a few more.

True but Vita lacks big JRPGs in general, I think that because PSN is a more traditional take on the series it will attract fans of the genre at large to buy Vita, along with Oreshika 2 and others. Yes it is a bit like a hunting game but I'd argue it's sufficiently different for it not to be too badly affected by those older titles

My big hope is that with Squenix in particular is that they've seen FFX do well on Vita, and seeing an original game in a biggish JRPG franchise will encourage them to commission some original games on PSV. Same goes for other devs
