The Vita is failing because it doesn't appeal to the handheld market

Don't forget the no gaemz.

No but seriously, the PSP had a much larger variety of games, the fact that it was also a multimedia device helped but what really drove it was the huge library of games (GTA, MGS, Mega Man, Castlevania, countless RPGs, etc). The Vita is missing many of the games which pushed the PSP, and at least in North America and Europe it's why it's not doing so well.

The Vita was only able to get those games because of the install base, because it was more appealing.

IDC what games come to Vita I would still never play it in public or be seen with one period.

The first GTA came out 6 months after the platform in the US. That isn't enough dev time for them to have waited to see the install base.  Oh the playstation name was so glorious then.
