Not exactly true as those are both marketed to mostly a younger audience that isn't as overrun or experienced with piracy. Why do more developers focus on consoles than PCs? For the exact reason that pirating on the pc is far simpler by the end user than most anything aside from the ds. My other comment was in regards to playing psp games on the vita. Like I said, I got a deal on my vita, so worst case I sell my psp and I pretty much got the thing dirt cheap, or an upgrade for barely anything. I would never expect homebrew to compete with commercial titles, that wouldn't make sense.If developers were scared of piracy, they would have stopped releasing games on the Wii and the DS a long time ago. Both of which are absurdly easy to mod and pirate on. No, rather the developers see the poor sales of the system and feel like their invested time and energy would be wasted for little gain. Thus they cancel and drop PS Vita releases. As a side note, homebrew game releases for the PS Vita would not come even close to the quality of big name commercial releases. The only thing it would have running for it would be a bunch of emulation potential (not bad necessarily but definitely wasted potential). So, all us adopters of the Vita better hope for a decent break that revitalizes Sony's handheld.
Edit: I hope the handheld gets better too, I'm just not jumping to conclusions is all.
