Modern Video Games / Re: Why isn't the Vita considered a failure universally? Sony Fanboyism?

Why did the Wii U got involved and why does this turn out in a fanboy war. Like come on guys even OP is doing some hardass fanboyism (even though he stated that he isn't).
My opinion: the vita is a commercial failure, even though I don't like admitting it. It is a great system with great support from the fanbase and japanese developers, it's just a shame that Sony and western third party devs let the vita rot so soon. vita is highly underrated imo, but I understand why it does shitty in the western country's.
On another note I think the 3DS marketing from nintendo was great. Having a lack of titles in the beginning and then non stop releasing first party titles and great third party titles to let it be alive. Now it has taken over the portable market. And you can see the same trend in the switch nowadays too.
And now if I can go back in time and may choose a 3DS or a vita (or potentially a switch). I will still choose for the vita. The games that are coming out for it (read for me) are more interesting then 3DS and Switch. It's a different system with a different market. The vita get pumped with good JRPG something that is in a less way on the 3DS and definitely the switch.
