My guess would be until Nintendo's next handheld launches (+- 1/2 years) because if the NX is just as powerful or more powerful than the Vita, then the developers would have even less reasons to develop for the Vita

What makes you think the NX will be more successfull with third party games? 3DS has 5 to 1 of the installbase but yet third parties are prefering the vita. I think its a sign that handheld gaming is dying, you maybe see nintendo games selling well but third parties are going away in the first place.

Monster Hunter? Dragon Quest? Bravely Default? Shin Megami Tensei? Kingdom Heats 3D? 

Sure, niche third party developers are taking advantage of the Vita's market, but that doesn't mean the 3DS hasn't had decent third party support, especially from top-tier developers like Capcom, Square-Enix, and even Atlus supports the 3DS with a main series SMT, and various ports of side-series.
