Of course it has impact but how much?
PSX: famous for piracy, games were sold a lot, console was a big success.
PS2: piracy was possible, games were sold a lot, console was the biggest success until now.
Wii: Security was ridiculous resulting in piracy, games were sold a lot, gen-winner.
X360: Several ways to play pirated games, games are selling a lot, 73 mio consoles sold.
PS3: piracy just starting, games sell a lot, console still selling like cookies.
And the winner is:
DS! R4 and you are done. Still selling, sold more than 150 million in 8 years (so even more successful than ps2 when you look at it that way), almost 4000 games released.
So yes, there is impact. But I think the article doesn't get it...
