I remain somewhat confused by the console advocacy, there is one major current gen console that cannot run copies of commercial games as I write this post (the PS3), unsurprisingly this is also the console that had the lowest sales in most of the world (hardware and software both). Most consoles were cracked inside 6 months.
(Okay, two of the portable consoles do require hardware, but the DS is relatively cheap, and the PSP isn't much more and neither of em set you back more than the price of 1 or 2 games tops. Also the PSP has a slightly less convenient non-hardware method, if you really feel the need for that, the DS doesn't but it also has ~no internal storage or standard memory card, so thats hardly surprising)
Given past track records it makes as much sense to assume the reason it hasn't been cracked is that no one cared, especially since once someone did a basic crack arrived pretty fast, nothing commercial has been done yet but I dunno how long you can expect that to last (and Sony is obviously concerned about such given 3.21, which is an update that does nothing except remove features), as it does to attribute it to its rather hard core security setup.
Admittedly I may be more tech savvy than the average console consumer but I found none of these things took any real effort on my part, so I doubt thats in any way relevant.
I say this as someone who actually buys pretty much all the things I play (basically if I can find it for sale at somewhere close to the original market price, I buy it) whether on PC or Console, but when you import game or don't feel like carring around a sack filled with games for a portable system, or want to be able to read a walkthrough on your secon DS, you still find these things out.
TL:DR: Consoles are no more secure than PCs are about 6 months after the system is on sale, and the only reason they last that long is because they never have software based backwards compatability, which is basically a given on PCs.
