now at 169.99$ Nintendo says it will be loosing on every unit sold

I don't think Nintendo said it, just some 3rd parties estimating the cost, no?

Advantages psv has over psp
-$20 less of a gap in price point with Nintendo's console
-More third party support, 153 third party devs and making something for it in addition to Sony, psp only had 100 games in development before it launched
-Touch screen, touch pad, dual analogue accelerometer ect.
-Slick flash media instead of bulky annoying UMDs
-Phone+psn level games
-More ps3 compatibility (transferable games, better remote play, usable as controller in games, ect.)
-Digital psp BC

Disadvantages
Phone games as competition?

How the hell do people think it's going to do worse then the psp, that doesn't seem possible at the moment.

Well quality counts, PSP would sell very well and one of the reasons why it would was because it had one huge franchise coming to PSP...GTA!!
153 games sounds only on paper (or on forums =p) as an advantage.

Not 153 games 153 3rd parties, some of them might be making more then one game, and you have to add Sony's games to taht, and before it's release the 100 games for psp was only on paper, and psv has Uncharted and LBP and COD how are those not huge franchises? And rockstar is one of the third parties so GTA on psv is likely too, so psv has more of an advantage in quality(or rather popular games) too.
