Sony says Vita was designed as sister device to PS4

“The thing we couldn’t really explain when the Vita came out was that it was really designed to be a sister device for the PS4, and work far more in sync with it, for obvious reasons. So while there are some exciting cross-play features between the Vita and PS3, they’re fewer and further between, and not as easy to develop.”
“Whereas with the PS4 there really is able to be much more integrated design, making it that much easier to bring together. Remote gameplay is an example, where the way the PS4 is used, makes it absolutely critical for a developer to work on Vita. We’ve got that feature for every game with one slight caveat which is if there is if some design or key feature which is a requirement for the PS4 game that cannot be replicated on the Vita but I don’t think any of the launch titles are in that space so they’ll all be there day one, which is great.”
