So you think that if PSP didn't have a piracy problem, the generation would have turned out very differently?

Well there are two possibilities:

1. Without piracy PSP would sell half the number of machines it did and DS would get another 20-30 milion sales from developing countries

2. Without piracy western developers wouldn't abondom PSP and with tons of good games it would sell better than it did.

 

Generally piracy is like a troyan horse which allows you to enter into market that wouldn't care if it didn't esisted.

Best example Poland - PS1 and PS2 were massively popular due to easy of piracy which translated into good PS3 sales when that userbase grown up , went to work and had disposable income.
