It's not piracy so much as it is the PSP doesn't appeal to people who don't pirate. It's REALLY REALLY easy to pirate DS and GBA games too... easier for the common man then the PSP. Yet they move software. The truth is... the PSP was marketed as a jack of all trades instead of a games machine, and as such less "pure gamers" who are less likely to pirate games. At the end of the day if the PSP wasn't so easy to hack the software would still sell about the same. It's just a lot less people would of bought PSPs. Sony like Apple only half heartidly battle piracy because they are expected too by the software and music companies. However they secretly support it because it makes their hardware more popular. |
The only person I know that owns a PSP doesn't pirate games, but he still rips every game he owns to memory stick because it will then have far faster load times and uses far less battery power; essentially, pirates get a far superior experience when playing PSP games than paying customers typically do.
