i was telling my friend earlier, i cant wait to have contra or tecmo football in the palm of my hand with the old school emulators...
im a real practical college student $177= or 344 tacos at jack in the box or 885 nuggets at wendys or a ps2 or an xbox with an extra controller or 10,00000000 packs of ramen noodles...
Heh! Man, you're going to have a hard time living your life if you compare the price of everything to pack of noodles
Hey guys, My PSP came in today and i was so excited. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8229172185&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWN:IT&rd=1 I got the MPEG4 conversions to work, the internet browser and i figured out all the features on the psp. my goal for today was to get the emulators to work, but im having the toughest time : ( I have the firmware version 2.01... i tried following this guys instructions but they were so vague http://www.mobiledeviant.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1136&page=1&pp=10 if someone could take me through step by step and dumb it down, id reallllly appreciate it.
how depressing its the main reason i wanted a PSP. to play old school stuff like mario world or chrono trigger...
Be VERY careful about using external stuff, you can get bricked...basically locking up your stystem, and since you used unapproved stuff you broke the Sony Waranty. DD
Miguel, I have 2 PSPs for (ehem) research...one is the original 1.5 OS with me running Homebrew apps, including all the old SNES stuff, and the 2nd is at 2.0 and running all the latest games. I will NEVER upgrade the first one. DD
I updated my PSP to the 2.0 firmware. GTA:LCS requiered me to update or I could'nt play. I thought about downgrading back to 1.5 but GTA:LCS is so much fun and I did'nt want to risk "bricking" my PSP so I bought a used 1.5 from eBay solely for emulators and other hacks. www.pspupdates is a cool site for those running 1.5
Most emulators I used on 1.5 now work on 2.0, but I can always downgrade if necessary, but I kinda like sitting in my livingroom and browsing espn.com/wap or wahtever the site is and read stuff while getting out of my room for a bit. Plus, I don't think I can give up my AVC encoded videos and wallpaper.
I'm joining yobod in my new ownership of a PSP so I'll hijack his thread for my own personal gains. As I said, I just bought a PSP and the firmware is version 1.51 so I had a couple of questions: 1) Does this basically mean there's no point in NOT upgrading to version 2.0? If I understand right, the problems with emulators and homebrews are fixed in any version above 1.5. 2) If I do or don't upgrade, which emulators would you guys recommend and have you guys had any problems with your PSP locking up? I'm leaning towards upgrading anyway because the browser, the wallpapers and all the new games are calling for me.
I believe you can downgrade from 2.0, although I don't know too much about it since I haven't done it. I think some homebrew still work on 2.0 as well, but anything above 2.0 will probably mean little to no homebrew for you. I haven't messed with emulators in a while so I don't really have too many suggestions there. No problems with lockups either.
