Kasz216 : Bealive me , hardware sales should be the same even without piracy ... why ? Because than we would see much more software on it , and eventually good games would sell the system . Saying that the DCs death had nothing to do with piracy is just being arrogant or fool . I dont want to offend you , Im just talking in general , but do you really think that Soulcalibur wouldent have done much batter if there wouldent have been so easy to get the game for free .

Yes , the DC was a record breaker , but only in the hardware department ... it did well in software , true , but not even far as well as it could have done .

Yes , I agree that homebrew sells the PSP , but when games like Crush or Silent Hill dont sell far as much as they should , than you cant blame it on games quality , the only thing that you can blame it on is piracy .

It's not arrogant or foolish. It has everything to do with the scientific data conducted on it. You can look it up, piracy was not a problem with the Dreamcast, and was just something Sega used as an excuse to save themselves from the embarrsement. People would of kept buying DC's if Sega had the ability to sell them. Piracy helps hardware sales, not hurt them. It would of lasted on much like the PSP. Why wouldn't more people have bought the easiest piratable console created? It got plenty of great games. The reason was. The masses didn't want it because of Sega's prior mistakes. It was getting a lot of big games the PS2 got. The interest just wasn't there. As for not doing well in the software department... It did better then the PS2 did in software it's first year. With a higher attach rate no less.

 I agree : piracy helps to sell hardware ... 100% true , but saying that it doesnt hurts software ... thats just plain nonsens . Yes , the DC could have reached easily , maybe even pass the 20 million mark by the end of its lifespam , if Sega would have had enough money to support it , but software wise it was allready and it would have been an awful performer ... maybe even wors than the PSP is now ...

 

Wit rising hardware sales the PSPs software sales will sooner or later pass the mediocre level , while Im not shure that the DC could have made that possible ... maybe with a redesign ...
