Andrew House, Sony Computer Entertainment's President and Global CEO, called the console a "legacy platform", at Sony's 2015 Investor Relations Day.
This means that Sony has currently no plans for the console, despite still continuing producing it.
Also the handheld is not part of Sony's strategy for the fiscal year of 2015.
Still there is hope, in the indie scene, with free and cheap development software for the console, and, given the success of the Vita in Japan and Asia, japanese oriented games are getting released in the western markets, like Sen no Kiseki, Atelier Escha & Logy Plus, Danganronpa: Another Episode and Persona 4: Dancing all Night.

It's time to mourn the Vita? What do you think?
And if this is the end of the Vita, do you believe Sony will launch another handheld? Or will it abandon the handheld market?
UPDATE: Apparently Andrew House was just refering to the original Vita hardware, when speaking of 'legacy platform'.

Vita owners can breath easier now.
