PSP attach rate awful?

 On those other systems you have to order a mod chip or special cartridge to pirate games. With the PSP, all you need is a memory stick and a computer.

You most certainly do not.

The PS1 is really easy. For early models, you simply needed to use the demo disc that came with the console, let it boot, and then swap it out for your burned copy. Later models that checked for authenticity every time the drive was opened could be defeated by blocking the sensor near the upper right of the CD drive. The authenticity check in the PSOne could be defeated just by taping a piece of construction paper over the sensor in lower right of the CD drive. 

For the PS2, you just need tape + tissue, clay, a piece of metal, or some other object to block the sensors to make the PS2 think that the drive is stilled closed. After that, you can go to a number of websites and order a Swap Magic disc for about $30.

You can play downloaded games on the GBA and DS with a flashcart for $30. 

The original Xbox has a hard drive, so you can just rent games, rip to them to the hard drive, delete them when you get done, and wash, rinse, and repeat, and wash, rinse, and repeat, and wash, rinse, and repeat......as needed. 

None of this is rocket science.
