Lik-Sang was established in 1998 in Hong Kong. It became well known for its sales of modchips for game consoles that enabled the normally locked-down consoles to play import and homebrew games (and, as a consequence, pirated games). The "modchips" were not all physical chips; they included devices such as flash cartridges that allow Game Boy users to upload ROMs and homebrew applications onto the device, and play them as if it were a regular gaming cartridge.
Legal Troubles
In 2002, the company was sued by major game console producers, such as Sony Computer Entertainment, Nintendo, and Microsoft, alleging contributory copyright infringement, since the mod chips (and other related devices) enabled playing of pirated game titles on those consoles. The court granted injunctions preventing Lik-Sang from selling these devices.[2] After these suits, Lik-Sang began expanding its area of expertise by reinventing itself (under a new owner) as a vendor of legitimate, but obscure, accessories, such as consumer electronics, games, merchandise, and t-shirts.

Again, I don't understand why people are upset that Sony is trying to back up there product. I'm gonna get groaned for this but what ever. I like keeping a product as pure as possible even if it means I got to purchase my own games, videos, etc. But thats just me.
