While I think the comparison and assertion made in the other thread was unfounded, especially since the OP didn't even try, I also feel that this thread is on the meaningless side, though obviously better researched.
What are we really comparing here? Simple "third party vs. third party" is not going to line up. What does the Vita have that we can compare against Monster Hunter? Or Dragon Quest? Or Kingdom Hearts? Or Puzzles and Dragons, for that matter? The point with the Vita all along has been that it lacks these massive franchises and titles. You can't say "this proves that they sell better on the 3DS", as those would also be the best-selling Vita titles if they had come to the Vita. It's comparing apples to chocolate cakes.
As for the second list, I see at least one game, Street Fighter, that released on the 3DS before the Vita was even launched. That kind of comparison has little value going forward.
Excepting those games for which there is no real comparison, it looks to me that both platforms have areas where they hold an advantage. For example, western games targeted at kids will obviously perform better on the 3DS. Just look at the LEGO titles. On the other hand, it looks like some of the mid-range Japanese games aimed at the anime crowd have found a home on the Vita. Both platforms look to be getting solid support (from Japan) going forward, which is all that really matters.
