I bought Vita in January because I had too much disposable income and I REALLY wanted to play Virtue's Last Reward and Danganronpa. I thoroughly expected it to gather dust after that, but to my surprise, I actually fell in love with it. It's a great piece of hardware, and I was pleasantly surprised with some other titles on it (Tearaway retroactively got my personal 2013 GOTY award, just a lovely game).
That being said, I agree with you 100% on this one, Jim. When I noticed the PS One and PSP titles in the store I almost pissed myself from happiness, only to be let down just a few hours later. I really do hope Sony will pull their shit together at some point, because, when fully working, it could become one of the best consoles ever (not just portable). Here's hoping someone in Sony higher ups actually watch this show and takes notes. Probably not, but a man can dream...
