That's only if passing is matching its precedessor which would be quite delusional.
The Vita doesn't lose money and (Japanese) publishers continue to release games on the platform. It's a niche product that has its audience and it's a good position for the parties involved.
If you only compare to previous generation(s), then yes. Both Vita and 3DS have done very badly as is the entire dedicated gaming market. The environment has changed so much that there only will be failure unless we re-align our expectations.
