Game companies don't choose to retire consoles in their prime, only consumers do that. If games on any system stop being profitable for both first party and third party developers, the system loses support, retailers stop stocking it and the system dies. Investing in the R and D for new game systems set back Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft, billions of dollars. And they don't get that money back and start making profits for many years!!!! In a perfect world, game companies would prefer not to keep introducing new game systems. But competition and consumer's desire for better graphics forces them to make new systems every 5 to 10 years.

The Vita has enjoyed some of the best first party support I've ever see in the first year of a game console (Uncharted Golden Abyss, Gravity Rush, Escape Plan, Motorstorm RC, Everybody's Golf, Sound Shapes and of course LittleBigPlanet, Sly Cooper 4 and Playstation All-Stars this Christmas). But people have to remember that with every new game console, in the first year there are very titles to choose from. It happen with the DS, the Wii and the 360 and it's happening with the Vita. But granted if you're complaining you have nothing to play on your Vita, you either have to much free time or money that should be spent on other hobbies. The 3DS and PS3 had really slow adoption rates, but once those killer apps came, there was huge explosion in sales and third party support. I dare say the same thing will happen with the Vita.
