while its far from the biggest reason why the Vita sells have been terrible the small amount that Sony ships to stores doesn't help in the slightest 

Yes, it's a factor but it's not that far from the biggest reason. Casual potential buyers can sometimes get into a product just by looking at the shelves, some kind of advertisment in the point of sale. The vita is usually sold online, which doesn't help spreading its existence.
