Volgens John Koller, directeur van Sony Computer Entertainment America, is piraterij nog een heel groot probleem voor de PSP, toch neemt het langzaam af. De daling is volgend Koller te danken aan de consumenten, die helpen de piraterij te bestrijden. "There's certainly people that are standing up and fighting for what we consider the good side, the rights of developers and publishers to make money on their IP. And then there’s certainly the other side that believes that they can take as warranted." "It’s kind of been nice to see other consumers going and help and fight the battle for us," added Koller.
