I only bought one because of the cfw and I started hearing rumours piracy killed it,does anyone here know what happened?

If piracy killed the psp, what killed the vita?
I don't think there's any saving of the vita. Psp had some good games and features to begin with. The vita had maybe two. I played Killzone and some dungeon crawler. Everthing else I downloaded/bought pissed me off. I was half expecting the vita version of minecraft to have a weeaboo schoolgirl touch minigame. I gave my vita away last year.Lol, indeed most of the answers above killed the ps vita, but no cfw or piracy!
I think piracy/cfw would save the ps vita if it happened sooner!
It did made de psp great.
Troll much?Sony killed the PSP , cause there are only a handfull of good games. My PSP has a CFW too, but i'm using it only for Homebrew and Nintendo Emulators
The last software developed for the psp as well as the latest fw update was last year. Far into the life of vita. I'd say that's closer to immortality then death.No trolling, just my opinion.
Yup. The West will also be receiving new titles for the PSP.The last software developed for the psp as well as the latest fw update was last year. Far into the life of vita. I'd say that's closer to immortality then death.

https://gbatemp.net/threads/ill-let-you-guys-in-on-a-secret-about-pirates.410644/christ, it did and it didnt.
cfw ofcourse lead to system sales. and that might have attracted a bunch of producers.
but companies make money with sold games.
if you buy just the console/memory card and pirate the games, you're costing sony and everyone else money. it varies from console to console, but when a new one is released, most companies only break even after you bought like 2-3 games.
now granted, there are still more people who do what they're supposed to do and not pirate, to the point where the companies still make enough money. but under the assumption that a pirate reeally wants to play at least a few games and couldn't otherwise access them, he'd have to redirect money towards sony to do so. clearly, he'd never buy all the 300 games he looked into as a pirate. but he'd still make them a few bucks of profit. which is more than none bucks of profit (or a net loss).
in conclusion, no, piracy has yet to really kill any console. it has to be so freely available, be so easy and safe to use and around so early and knowledge about it so widely spread that no one would want to buy games for real to ever get to that point.
but it absolutely loses companies money, no ifs or buts about it.
people that want to pirate, do it, but at least have the decency to feel bad about it once in a while. and dont try to find justifications that make it look like you did something good (like boosting sales through supposed advertising to your friends or other bullshit like that)
