Negatively, but in fact that has little to do with the actual 2011 PSN blackout.

It has more to do with stuff like http://www.eurogamer...ystation-stores , as if we need another example of why being an European gamer sucks. Oddly enough - barring EarthBound, Drill Dozer and WarioWare Twisted - Nintendo never seems to have such problems. The PSOne Classics are by far the biggest offender.

As to how they handled it, well, if I'm allowed to make a comparison...
- Early 2011: hackers breach through Sony's security, stealing potentially thousands of bucks worth of data, with friggin' credit card data among the stolen stuff. Userbase gets rewarded with TWO free games.
- Later in 2011: the Nintendo 3DS gets a price cut, with the only offense being a potentially perceived feeling of betrayal by day-one users. Said users get rewarded with TWENTY free games.

The facts speak for themselves, doing the math is up to you folks.

It was kinda good thing for me since I finally had change to play FF XIII to end since I was playing online a lot on those times, so it finally forced me to play something not based on multiplayer or online co-op..
