It's happened here in Europe. America will eventually adopt it but sales will be the same plus ~PS Camera sales. It's going to be viewed as an accessory to some.

I must have missed this.

The PS4 effect was the last straw a lot of fans tried to grasp, but nothing happened so far and nothing will happen.

Here's an article which signifies the effect that the PS4's launch had on the Vita in the UK: http://uk.ign.com/articles/2013/12/19/ps4-launch-boosts-ps-vita-sales

A 68% and a 65% boost from a next to non-existent handheld, especially during the pre-Christmas season, which would've seen a boost either way, is not really a significant sign.
PS Vita TV in Japan had a bigger impact on PSV sales than PS4 launch in all of Europe. And Vita TV is considered a flop there.

What you don't understand is that PS4s were being bundled with Vitas here in the UK which SOLD when the solus was sold out. I would believe that this would have an impact. Also, we are not given concrete number to assess how much impact the PS4 sales had on the Vita, only percentages. When I said its happened here in Europe, I was extrapolating the UK data to the entire continent without taking into account confounding factors.
