Simply Sony ignored the device. And now with the release os PS TV, vita support is completely null. The PS TV is going to sell even less that the Vita. Worst Sony idea ever made. No matter how much are you whining baby , Sony don't care about the Vita at all. Sorry about that. I bought a Vita long ago like you, but I sold it.

I wasn't going to respond to this, but for the record I've never owned a Sony Handheld, (not even phone). The last handheld I owned was a GBA SP.

Yeah I don't do mobile or 3ds too.Rubish.Is not like we are against Dr.'s opinion.We are just setting the facts on the table.

Wha? So why are you against he idea of Sony not supporting the Vita? You are crazy or high baby.

Just because I'm not convinced doesn't mean I'm against it. I just haven't seen enough evidence to support the claim.

This is the "worst generation for handhelds" because Vita's sales are terrible, not the other way around.

And both the 3DS and Vita were way overpriced when they were released... a $250 handheld was NEVER going to be successful. Notice how the 3DS's sales finally picked up after it was dropped below $200, and it has plenty of quality software, along with the 2DS for those on a budget. Vita meanwhile is still $200+ with literally no games. Not hard to see why this is the "worst generation for handhelds".

How many triple a exclusives has Sony made recently that's of mention. Bringing indie games to ps vita isn't supporting, Sony didn't make them and it's even worse if it's not ps vita exclusive. Also who the heck buys a cutting edge handheld only to play indies? Also bringing former developers of psp to ps4 isn't supporting. The order should be on vita 

I don't understand how people say Sony never support Vita ,Vita get the second most popular playstation IP

You seem to think that Sony not directly impeding devs from releasing games on the platform = supporting the platform. That is the fundamental problem. Just because there are a lot of indie ports released compared to launch from third-party devs does not mean Sony supports the system. Sony supporting the system would mean them releasing good games consistently for it, which they absolutely are not (look at Rol's links). 

You are simply fundamentally wrong in assuming that third-party support means straight up support from Sony. Sony has, at this point, started advertising the Vita as more of a companion machine than a dedicated handheld, a vastly different reality than what they promised starting out. Do you think early adopters wanted a steady stream of ports and indies? No, we expected many AAA games, from both Sony and third-party, that took advantage of the handheld. Instead, Sony stops making games for it, and third-party devs only do ports and indies, with the occasional JRPG coming our way (which, half the time, is also a port).

Your expectation of "support", in the end, makes no sense. What, did you expect Sony to just cancel the Vita? Nah. If you want to see an example of the lack of support, just look at shelf space. Very few retailers even carry Vita games anymore, and those that do carry only a few, if even. That's a stark example of how far Sony has let it fall, when the majority library is digital indie releases that play better on different consoles.

Smartphones are why.
