This is why buying digital is largely retarded. Especially with how pricey this specific platform's storage is.

Now the bad news, due to really bad hardware and software sales in Japan, some developers in Japan are already pulling their support from the Vita with some already stating they are switching to just 3DS games. In comparison, the PSP was very healthy in Japan while everywhere else had the support pulled after the 2nd/3rd year but was brought back due to Sony paying developers to make games for it.

Lousy Japs won't buy anything American!
While I joke abuot Sony being American, they did kinda have a large number of Western-style games and marketed to those as though it was a strength, and even bragged about the Western games being the big pre-orders.
Maybe it's not the Vita that's the problem here...
Not that it matters, mind. If Japanese devs are pulling out, they're pulling out.
The PSP may be fucked before it even has a chance to fail in the Western market.
