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

So what I got from this is the OP is a conforming sheep of society and is too sensitive/scared/paranoid to what total strangers think of him.

Im well above 16 and still play my 3DS and PS VITA in public, and guess what I got a gf who hates gaming and she don't give a fuck.

The PSP was bad ass not because of PS2 being huge but because smart phones and tablets were not mainstream then. Most people that I know used a PSP for music and videos and ironically emulating Nintendo games lol.
