The big difference between the Vita and the Wii U is that Nintendo needs the Wii U a lot more than Sony needs the Vita.  Nintendo has two divisions.  Their handheld division and their console division.  If one of these two elements dies, Nintendo is in serious trouble as a company.

Sony on the other hand is also involved in cameras, movies, music, smart phones, and several other fields.  Handheld gaming is one of the smallest parts of their overall business.  So, if the handheld market is pretty much gone, why limp to the finish when they could be using their resources on something else, for instance their smartphone and tablets division?


Well, it depends on how much those devices really can sell, and also, the game division of Sony still have 4 products, PS3, PS4, PSP and PSVITA, I think dismouting vita assembly lines and dropping everything when there are hundreds of devs making and porting games for it would be an enormous mistake. Again, they are a big company and they are used to having dozens of products on the market at the same time, and the vita sells much better than a lot of those products.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.
