people buy it to play vita and ps now games on the tv. it'll sell games.

Quite honestly, i love my Vita and i have plenty of games to play on it, but the PS4 connectivity is nothing but a disappointment. The Vita doesnt have triggers and the back touch screen is not a good replacement. Same for L3 R3. Also feed is at 30 fps.

You know what would be great? If you can download them on ps4. 

you can get defensive if you wish lol

There's just zero reason to buy a vita or vita tv anymore now that its coming to ps4 :)

At work whenever someone asks me is the PS Vita TV worth getting I just point them to the pre-owned PS Vita section and say for $60 more you get your moneys worth and then some.

I'm a little surprised it did that well.

That's not surprising. I knew it would flop when they announced it.

It's a supplementary platform to the PlayStation ecosystem, so it doesn't stand alone like a primary machine (say, PS4) does. 40k is a win in that sense, because it's 40k more instruments in the Vita/PS4 ecosystem. And that's just the US.

Worldwide, you're looking at over 100k.

The thing sells games and services, while making PS4 and Vita ownership even more appealing. I do not have a PSTV, but I intend on getting one.

Because it's library is lacking

Not in quality, not in numbers, and not in variety. 

It's lacking in awareness.
