The last times I looked the Vita sells the best in Japan while having much less of a population than  North America and Europe. *confused and amused face* I bolded Japan for you in vgc's own data.

os Platform North America Europe Japan  Rest of World Global
20 PlayStation Vita (PSV) 2.03 2.71 3.30 1.03 9.07

Vita had more support in Japan then Usa and Europe that's why it selling better in Japan but sales are awfull everywhere

That seems like a lot of speculation. The 3DS has a lot of games yet, it is selling in a similar pattern  as the vita. Sales are mostly in Japan while North America and Europe the sales have declined a lot compared to last gens handhelds. Look at the links; the vita was dead on arrival it never took off in N. America and Europe.

1) Europe http://www.vgchartz.com/tools/hw_date.php?reg=Europe&ending=Weekly

2) America fuck yeah!  http://www.vgchartz.com/tools/hw_date.php?reg=USA&ending=Weekly

Sorry, but your excuse that the Vita has no games seems idealistic. The console never did good and giving the Vita more games would have likely led to a very small amount of a continual sales rate increase outside of Japan. It is just  not worth it to Sony to waste more capital on a failed handheld.
