Hack or not, Sony profits either way.
Quite ingenious, I'd say.

PS Vita itself has hardly dropped in price all this time, though I suppose not really unexpected.
Interestingly, it's such a failure here in Australia, that the only place which sells them new is EB Games (and they charge a nice premium for it).  Other electronic chains stock some Vita games, but not the console itself.

Looks like some game dumpers are out, and I see a few decrypted games posted on torrent sites.  Though it looks like Sony can't really blame piracy for the lack of success of the Vita this time around, considering the late timing.
