The main reason I bought a Vita was because it was advertised as a handheld with console quality games, promising AAA games on the system. Sony is the sole reason why the Vita failed and has yet to even reach 10% of 3DS sales. Sony didn't back it like they did with the PS3, PSP, and the PS4, it was always on the back burner for them, just like it was this E3, and this stopped developers from taking the risk to make expensive games on the Vita, especially smaller studios. They also made their own expensive proprietary memory cards instead of using an SD card (32gb vita card for $99.99, $59.99 with prime vs 32gb sd card for $15.00). All Sony needs to do is release a cheaper model, go back to SD cards or make their cards cheaper and release some good AAA titles like GTA, GoW, more Killzone games, Uncharted and the like and it would help draw in a bigger audience. I'm sorry to say but not that many Americans want to buy a handheld console that only has small name indie games and games that are too "Japanese".
