I hope its not the case but we will see. They have VR, and home console to support. A third pillar in portable system may be too much on the plate unless they really want to get back in the game.
The reason why the Vita failed is because Sony gave up on it after it started falling way behind the 3DS sales. To the point it was barely mentioned at conventions. I played a couple games early in its life (Uncharted, PS:All-Stars, Gravity Rush, etc.) and got both the Slim and original Vita but after a certain period gave up on the system and sold it.
I will probably get the PSP2 or whatever its going to be called IF one truly exists only after seeing what the game lineup would look like. But if they fail to support the console again I'm not buying another Sony portable.
