The Vita has a power advantage that could actually position it to a point where any Nintendo successor to the 3DS, means the Vita is still capable of running that software (so "HDS"/Vita dual format releases could potentially end up being much more common place than 3DS/Vita ones are now). The Vita is also starting to attract Japanese developers who I'm guessing are wanting this extra power to be less constrained by hardware limitations which could help drive sales.
I don't see Vita ever catching 3DS, but I do think it could have a much longer lifespan meaning in the long run, it doesn't look like the utter decimation that 2013 sales comparisons showed.
As for Vita peaking, it may well have done in the West unless Sony do something about it. It looks like it's just starting to wake up in Japan though.

PSP can probably run most 3DS games, it isn't doing what you think it would.

PSP doesn't sell any software due to the ridiculously high piracy rate. It may have had 80m units sold, but about 50m of the userbase pirated the hell out of the games. It was pretty much abandoned in the West years before the 3DS launched. PSP has been getting PSP/Vita dual format releases for the past 2 years though in Japan.
Okay, assuming Vita isn't completely hacked by the time the Nintendo successor releases it would be potentially possible for it to share Nintendo HDS titles as cross format :p
