Lets talk about Final Fantasy Type-0 NOT being on Vita.....

1.  "Pretty much a sequel" indicates that it reuses a lot of the same content.  Developed by Comcept I believe?

2.  Made by Alfa is very relevant as it shows that Sony is not willing to devote their developers to Vita titles.  There is nothing necessarily wrong with funding third party projects, but you should also be developing games in house. 

3.  Was there really a clamor for Borderlands 2 two years after the original release?  If so why didn't anyone buy it?  Even bundled with the Vita sales are pitiful.  Shows how much being a highly requested title would mean for type 0 I guess.

4.  Oh do they?  They could have fooled me with their E3 presentation.  They haven't stopped all production, but their production is exceedingly low.  Their support, if you want to call it that, is basically the bare minimum. 

Honestly is Sony putting their best effort into making the Vita a success?  If they're not, why should a third party invest in the console? 

1.Like I also said, its more of a sequel than Monster Hunter iterations and that doesn't seem to impede people's hype for that series. What is a sequel? sharpened mechanics and slight improvements over a previous entry is how I define it. SS Delta has that in excess. Complete new moves and combo mechanics, has the original Story Mode..... but also has an equally large second story mode, new bosses and enemy types, and sharper graphics. Only thing that keeps people from thinking this is a sequel is the fact their is no "2" in the name.

2. Sony has hired countless small 3rd party studios to work on Vita titles. Why is this such a problem? They need their bigger studios to pump out stuff for PS4 obviously. If these smaller companies were just attached to one of their 1st Party studios in name would it really make a difference? These studios currently know more about developing on handheld than Naughty Dog does. Also in many of these game's development Sony assists in making them via Japan Studios. Japan also has a part in the Soul Sacrifice and Freedom Wars series. Not to mention SJS is making Gravity Rush 2 of their own for Vita.

3. Vita Owners have prayed for a Borderlands Vita release......but I think most were expecting an original effort and not a port of like you said, 2+ year old game. Something more in the line of AC Liberations, COD Blacklist,etc. Not to mention the BL2 bomb was dropped out of thin air and many don't even know it was to exist really, let alone it has RELEASED. The release date for the BL2 bundle was not officially stated until like a week or two before the game's release. From what I am told, the BL2 bundle is for the most part sold out at Gamestop. Gamestop hasn't sold a new Vita until this bundle in months. Is Sony handling Vita promoting horribly? I would most def say yes, but they really are trying in actual content.

4. Yes they do, Gravity Rush 2 being one and Invizimals, I'm sure plenty more. Sony's E3 had to concentrate on PS4 mostly....because everytime they mention Vita at the conference many people become immediately dismissive and start saying "Sony wasted time talking about Vita/NOT PS4 GAEMZ!". PS4 is their bread winner, everyone knows that, so E3 being the biggest conf for such a thing it had to take center stage. They might do like they did last year and Save Vita news for Gamescom/TGS. Any Vita news would have really been overshadowed by PS4 stuff regardless. Also they did show of Playstation TV(aka Vita TV) which actually is a pretty nice piece of kit. It plays Vita games on your TV, as well as can stream apps and PS3 games via PSNow, and can allow you to access your PS4 library from a different room, all for a low price of $99. That is pretty relevant to Vita.
