I just can't help but be miffed that the likes of Koei can support the Vita so heavily but Sony can't be bothered to do more than one game a year.

Okay... this I don't get. I mean, I'm a big fan of TK's support of Vita, but I feel like it quite often gets overstated compared to what Sony are offering.
Tecmo Koei's support of Vita has been a load of ports (Atelier; Dead or Alive; Ninja Gaiden) and then a load of multi-plats with PS3 or PSP (Deception IV; Toukiden; Warriors).
Sony's support of Vita has been a load of ports (Borderlands; God of War; Ratchet) and then a load of multi-plats with PS3 (BigFest; Helldivers; Counterspy). And then a few exclusive games at least for the current year (Freedom Wars; Murasaki Baby; PS Vita Pets; Soul Sacrifice Delta)
What's the difference there? Apart from TK maybe being more likely to release their multi-plats as a retail game (though the latest batch of Warriors games would say not), I'd say that was pretty equal. They've both got equally barren upcoming release schedules (Atelier and Toukiden in the west from TK; Oreshika from Sony).
The problem is that Sony should be supporting it more because it's their platform, but I'd definitely argue that they're supporting it the same as TK.
I am worried that Japan Studio support is going to be completely dropped in favor of PS4 though. Which is an odd, odd move to bet all their chips on something that may or may not take off rather than something that they've spent 2 years salvaging themselves (and especially since I'd bet PS4 will get stronger Japanese third-party support just because of the western sales).
