My PSP was stored away for years as I'd lost the charger. Recently got a charger and just installed custom firmware on it. Thank you for showing all the possibilities!
i mean yes and no... the screen is soo bad... last time i turned on my pc i was like HOLY SHIT its ugly AF (but some reason it has oil damage like it fell in the fryer but yeah the screen is full with oil) kinda sucks that it was dead it still worked fine befor.... but yeah i now have a gpd XD with is amazing but yeah psp games are hard to emulate...
Dude, thanks a lot for the video. I was planning to pick up a handheld some weeks ago I was going to get some new stuff (Vita, 3DS), but your video really inspired me to get the old psp. I did so particularly for the MS trick you showed and the amazing psp game library. As a 90's kid I having a blast with my psp and all the games of my childhood days. Thanks man.
I just recently put a GBA emulator and a bunch of roms on my PSP, I am amazed how well it works. It works better than SNES. SNES, I always notice some sound anomalies and some slow down here and there.
I know you made this video over a year ago, but I just found it and liked it. Thanks for all the info. I just bought a slim psp 2000, and going to mod it and install emulators. You just answered a lot of my questions. Thank you for all the info.
The fact that PSPs have dedicated buttons integrated into the design makes it ferl much nicer than emulating on a phobe with those weird clip on controllers.
Custom themes is how i bricked my first one, the video explicitly said, "don't change your theme to original" ... i immediately selected original (or whichever broke it) ... damn shame...
Hell yes, the PSP is a lifesaver for me when I'm travelling or at my girlfriends. It's so good I've bought two so I've spares and if anything goes wrong with my day-to-day. PSX, Snes, Nes and not to mention amazing PSP games themselves. Definitely recommend getting a SD to Memory Stick Duo converter and then just loading up a 64Gb SD.
As someone who totally loved my PSP1000 It can be softmodded too It was in fact easier and more exploitable than the 3000 I also found that the system was more durable than the 2000/3000
Soft modding a 3000 is no different then any other psp model, it's just not hard modable nor can hard flash custom firmware past that they're all the same.
I had a hacked psp and it was great eventually I upgraded to a vita and it was worth every penny not only does it have some great games but I was able to hack it just like my psp and not only did it have a slew of useful homebrews and emulators but I was able to fully emulate a hacked psp on it and play all my old favorite psp games and load up my old homebrews. Best purchase I’ve ever made
I'm glad I didn't sell or gave away my PSP. Never would have though a lot for this device in 2017. I also managed to get a hold on one of those Photo Fast adapters, and there are still the best. Thanks for sharing.
The large battery is for the psp 1000 the oldest model. I remember making a pandora battery for my psp 1000 back in the old days when you have to hard mod. Then years passed by and it got easier.. where you can just sign homebrews to work on a official formware. All thanks to dark alex for the m33 firmware
Awesome info! Yeah that large battery lasts a long time. The first one I bought was swollen and wouldn't fit. So I sent it back to the seller and they sent me a good one.
The thing about the psp is that sony stopped making batteries for it and it's really rare to find the original since most of them have become out of shape because of not using it. There are still psp batteries out there but those only last for a max of 40 mins and sometimes switch off randomly
This kind of quality content should be getting more views. Shame all the people get fooled by those viral clickbait compilations. You can tell all the work that was put into this video and it feels awesome to watch.
Same here. I got it in nice package with soft case and everything. It's awesome how many game I can get in there, thank's to the little hack on the memory stick showed in this video
Great explanation of PSP capabilities. Still in 2017 I think PSP was and is one of the best portable consoles, and after hacking it turns out from a great console to a veritable monster gaming machine. Still love my PSP
My PS3 brought me here. Lol I just got mine back out today and installed remote joy lite on my computer to play on a bigger screen. I have the component cables but for some reason quit working. I played the entire Symphony of the Night through those cables. Good times. I have the silver 2000 series running 6.20 pro B8.
Thank you for putting everything in the description. Those Due cards are indeed cheap (wayy cheaper than the vita cards...). I have a 64gb on the way with plenty of ISOs ready to be thrown in it. Seriously didn't think modding this handheld was this easy :)
I used to have a modded PSP so I could play retro games on the go. However from watching ths I can see I was only scratching the surface with what the PSP could do when it's modded. Just noticed that you are getting closer to 1000 subs! You'll hit that before you know it
FINALLY!!! SOMEONE WHO FEELS THE WAY I DO ABOUT THE PSP!!!!! And to update you on the PSP Mods, the PSP-1000A and the PSP-1001-B CAN BE MODDED!!!! The PSP Slim CAN be modded!!! I've modded SO many PSP MODELS in my hay day that I can't keep count anymore. I'm from Chicago, and the CATS that I KNOW are still playing the PSP without fail. Sure, they own PS4's and all of that, but who can play MArs Matrix on the PSP??? Emulators and the Capcom CPS1, 2 and the CPS3 CAN RUN on the PSP. The Processor on the PSP was a FUCKING MONSTER!!!! Something THAT TINY was packing a serious PUNCH back in the day. Great reviews brother.........Thanks for DEFENDING THE PSP!! And the PS1 ISOs are so easy to find and load up. ^_^
Considering the fact that my PSP can't connect to my modem, I don't think it will be bricked any time soon. LOL It's the PS3 & PS4 I have to be careful with because I still purchase games on it.
+Ninja-X3 Well its really just a disclaimer. I've never had any issues personally. But you are referring to bricking like not being able to go on a store anymore, or the Sony server somehow banning you IF it could go online. But what I'm saying is who knows what update files/homebrew/system hacks are out there and anytime you have unknown software modifying your firmware it always has a chance of bricking or rendering your hardware in a unplayable state. For example my other video on Wii modding, there are some steps that you can do that will literally mess up your wii so it won't start up anymore, and it has nothing to do with the Internet.
Excellent system man. I love these Psp handhelds. I remembered dumping tons of tokens on alien vs predator, aero fighters, and ninja turtles. Back in the day when games and arcades were great ! Nice video.
Back in the day when you were a god for doing all these hacks and mods now it is pretty much useless when our phone can do it much better, the old times were the best !
I was about to sell my moded psp1000, but now, this opens a lot of possibilities i didn't even know were possible without a lot of work. I will have to try Thank you
I love the old classic Retro games from the 80s and 90s, so I seen the Psp 1000 on ebay for a decent price with sd card and quite a few games were on it. So it started to download emulators and its amazing the amount of games available. Well worth getting one!
Still have my "Fat" PSP that i modded in 2008. Even experimented a bit to make my own custom Eboot files. Was really much fun and a interesting way to understand how the PSP works and handles files. If only it would have used MiniDiscs and HiMDs instead of the UMDs. That would have made the PSP rely a lot less on the super expensive MemorySticks.
Woah cool! Yeah I forgot about minidiscs. Those official duo cards are spendy, but that's why I use those 5 dollar micro sd cards duo adapters. They are a bit cheap but work great.
Am i the only one who thinks that a spinning disk drive is a a Battery drainer and a Flash memory is superior? Like UMD won't even last 1/3rd as much as it does with memory Stick.
@விஷ்ணு கார்த்திக் : No, that's still a myth that these drain batteries a lot. Even less if they had used MiniDisc / HiMD instead of UMD. Have you seen that a lot of MiniDisc walkmen ran on a single AA alkaline battery? They lasted quite long with one battery charge. Because the content doesn't need to constantly being read. Only when the data is actually accessed and buffered in the ram. Flash Memory was and still is way too expensive per Gigabyte and also not very reliable. Especially for longterm data storage.
I love my modded PSP, the screen quality and battery life on the damn thing are astoundingly good still today. I once lost it down the side of the couch for 6 weeks, and when I turned it back on from power-save it STILL had half a charge! I haven't even watched this video yet because I KNOW a modded PSP is still useful. Ima watch now. ;-)
Oh, one last thing, the PSP-1000 IS indeed moddable. In fact, back in the day when I got mine, it was the only model that WAS moddable. ;-) Loved the video, time to check out moar!
If you have so many games and emulators you should use the game categories lite plugin to organise that stuff lol, makes it a lot easier to find specific stuff
I just love my psp, bought it 4 years ago for 100$ and it nevers gets old :D, especiaaly because of all the emulators I have on ti :) by the way where do you buy decent batteries for those , the ebay ones just seem like crap
TIMELESS!! Yeah they are amazing when loaded up. The batteries are hit or miss, but I did find mine on ebay or amazon a few years back. Seems like the first one I bought was on amazon and it was defective and had to return it.
bought a memory stick for my PSP and it should be arriving next week. I am planning on modding my old PSP with 128gb of storage to work with. obviously i'm adding my favourites back in the day, as well as adding games I never got the chance to play.
the Vita blows the PSP away.. but it is still a great system.. what i dont like is the analog stick will need repair quicker that other systems.. and there is only one.. if i have a choice between a modded psp and a modded vita.. ima take the vita every time.
A modded psp or any sort of modded console is as relevant as you make it. The Psp can be a Gameboy, Nintendo, Genesis, N64, Playstation, Multimedia station, Remote control for your tv. The sky is the limit...
anyone know the link to a perfectly running crash bandicoot playstation one game, the copy i keep running across freezes up at a the second or third save point, the game basically freezes up, please help
I would rather play on a modded PS Vita where I can play my PSP games and also second analog stick is a game changer for PSP games. I also enjoy playing PS3 through Remote Play.
don"t forget the remote joy stuff... You can basically plug it into a windows pc via USB and play tekken 6 on your monitor or laptop. it streams the gameplay video really good! gets a little choppy sometimes, and we have emulators like ppsspp today, but still... this old stuff works too!!! i used to play tekken 6 like crazy on a old laptop... it runs pretty well, too. i don't remember the software name though... Oh yeah... I bought my used silver PSP-2000 in like... 2009? still runs like a charm!!!! nothing broken.
@@oscarruda7200 I used to get them from torrentz sites. Things have changed after all the shutdowns, but you can still find them if you look hard enough and have good anti-virus software.
Great video, just inspired me to buy a PSP for £22 and one of those adapters for £1.09 - have loads of old Micro SD cards laying about. This is my 4th PSP after selling the previous 3
The 1st psp was in my opinion much better and sturdier than the following models. It had a nice mechanism for the UMDs, had a better grip (was more thick on the edges) and the finish was much more nicer than the slim, because the slim was actually black shiny plastic which gave it a cheapo look, when the original PSP was a black plastic background with an overlay of clear plastic, giving it an awesome look.
I dont even care about handheld consoles but that castlevania theme just catch me on a tight spot to consider buying one just to emulate all the castlevania series.
The PSP is the best portable ever when you mod it. I did back in high school and played a lot of emulators and ISOs on it. I still play mine every now and then, though definitely not as much as I used to.
Retro Game Players I found that the Genesis emulation worked the best. What I loved about the modding scene was that people started making eboots of any and every PS1 game, even stuff that wasn't even on the PSN store. I had a lot of fun back in the day with my PSP. Unrelated question, what is the star fox looking game that you have playing in the background? Curious it looks awesome!
Hello guys, nice vidéo... I just baught a brand new used handheld emulation gaming console for christmas. A Silver 2004 PSP. And this cause of your video. This beauty cost me 25€ (~25$). If you look for cheap emulation gaming just go for it. Cheaper than Raspberry, and more handy than used PC...You can't play multi with retro games. That for me the only inconvenient with this setup. But for the price and the quality of the device, it's not a big deal, and you can steel play multi with PSP games even online. It's my first handheld console and i'm happy with it...THX
Got a PSP with CFW from my brother years ago (when you could still find PSP games in retail) and spent soooo much time with a GBA emulator running on there. By now, the battery is completely dead, not holding even a little bit of charge, so I upgraded to a Vita. That thing is a beast, and absolutely amazing for games that only got translations made by fans. If I ever get my hands on a working PSP battery, the old thing is going to get a system update, as much storage as I can manage, and all the translation patches I can fit on there.
I miss my 2000's. Someone stole it from my house 7 years ago, i remember my emulators and my childhood psx games 😭. I will be getting one for my son this weekend, saw a shop that still sells brand new 3000's. I will be taking care of it for it will be still awesome years from now.
My PSP was stored away for years as I'd lost the charger. Recently got a charger and just installed custom firmware on it. Thank you for showing all the possibilities!
Same! It's been my quarantine project lol
Rhitosparsha Baishya same bro wanna play VCS Online 😳
My PSP has been sitting in my drawer for a few years, time to take it back out. :) Thanks for the vid!
AWESOME yes it is a amazing system. I will add more info in the description later today.
Same here man
Same here
Same. Just dusted it off. I wish the servers were back up for the games now that I'm old enough to be online LMAO
My entire childhood, in the palm of my hands! I bought me one of these babies for 64 bucks brand new. So cheap.
damn i think that i copped mine for like 40 euros lol
Got mine for £10 included fifa, racing game from 2005 and a case
How did you get a psp so cheap
Repson The Dog ebay and amazon I got mine for 64$ on amazon used no scratches no issues no dots and like 20 games came with it
@@zerogamer935 nice find!!
The short answer: fuck yea! A modded PSP might just be the best way to enjoy retro gaming on the go.
Music Power Haha yep no doubt
i mean yes and no...
the screen is soo bad... last time i turned on my pc i was like HOLY SHIT its ugly AF (but some reason it has oil damage like it fell in the fryer but yeah the screen is full with oil) kinda sucks that it was dead it still worked fine befor.... but yeah i now have a gpd XD with is amazing but yeah psp games are hard to emulate...

Awesome happy to help!
2021 and im still working on mine. System is timeless.
Me too.....
I recently played both Metroids from GBA and Super Metroid from SNES on my PSP, I LOVE it!
Those are fantastic games!!
Yeah, both plays amazing on PSP, I finished Zero and Fussion too, and I am very happy
did this last year and the psp was perfect for that! I was able to quickload everytime i died at mother brain :-P
Yeah me too! A modded psp go, perfect screen for gba emulation, so crisp!
I just recently put a GBA emulator and a bunch of roms on my PSP, I am amazed how well it works. It works better than SNES. SNES, I always notice some sound anomalies and some slow down here and there.
1000 can be modded. That was the first version to be modded.
Very cool!
Also, one of the easiest to hack, with the most options. Weaker, less use in it, aside from the IR port, but still.
Is it posible to use orginal firsy psp with irda to control tv?
yes!
yea, but it will have problem with software.. so its useless anyway
I know you made this video over a year ago, but I just found it and liked it. Thanks for all the info.
I just bought a slim psp 2000, and going to mod it and install emulators. You just answered a lot of my questions. Thank you for all the info.
RIGHT ON and glad to hear!!
why tf did I sell my psp
Calm that DOWN mine was hacked and I sold and regret it everyday but I'm getting a new one for Christmas
Try to get a Vita on 3.60 or lower FW. Its everything this is and more.
Calm that DOWN
They cost like €50-€60
Nowadays
vita or og psp?
Buy another one
I am a raspberry and PC snod and I like the idea of the PSP as a retro handheld over Android.
+Qoostewin Sch'Kuen'Te Yeah me too :)
The fact that PSPs have dedicated buttons integrated into the design makes it ferl much nicer than emulating on a phobe with those weird clip on controllers.
Me and my best friend since childhood have shared a love of PSP it is one thing we can go on forever talking about.
I have a psp 3000 that's modded, I have some homebrew games on it, I also have CXMB themes and it's awesome.
NICE, I haven't tried any themes
Custom themes is how i bricked my first one, the video explicitly said, "don't change your theme to original" ... i immediately selected original (or whichever broke it) ... damn shame...
M1cksta05 did you mod it yourself? I have psp 3001
It's 2022. You're still amazed how this beast still rocking 🔥
The 1000 is good to mod if you want to use it as an universal infrared remote.
Woah didn't know that!
love it! never had a need or desire for a psp, but one set up just like this has changed all that ..
Cool yeah I love mine
The 1000 can be easily soft modded just like the others. I bought mine the day PSP came out and have run all sorts of mods and emulators on it
RAD! Yeah I have now learned that they all can modded.
Hell yes, the PSP is a lifesaver for me when I'm travelling or at my girlfriends. It's so good I've bought two so I've spares and if anything goes wrong with my day-to-day. PSX, Snes, Nes and not to mention amazing PSP games themselves. Definitely recommend getting a SD to Memory Stick Duo converter and then just loading up a 64Gb SD.
As someone who totally loved my PSP1000
It can be softmodded too
It was in fact easier and more exploitable than the 3000
I also found that the system was more durable than the 2000/3000
OroCrimson 2 I like how burly the 1000 is, and the disc eject mechanism is really cool too.
I also like it's size, I find it easier and less taxing on the hands (big hands)
Hey i have psp1000 with 5.00 m33-4. But why are there only few games that is able to run on it? Is it because the firmware is old? Thanks in advance
Soft modding a 3000 is no different then any other psp model, it's just not hard modable nor can hard flash custom firmware past that they're all the same.
Syahir Izzuddin Upgrade your firmware to 5.00 M33-6. I think that was the last version of that firmware made.

3000 and street are kinda hard

Can you play classic PC games on it like Aliens Vs Predator 2?
es verdad

I legit still use my PSP as my main mp3 player.
Right on, I need to check that feature out!
Retro Game Players yo how much did the psp + micro SD cards + micro SD card converters cost you in total?
Don't you have a smartphone?
My psp was my main music player in my mid teens up until phones became able to play music lol. Long live the psp!
What up Marcus! That's a dope Modded PSP Bro! This is a really great way to play emulated games and watch movies and media! DOPE!!!
Thanks Charles! Yes this thing is so fun to travel with, I highly recommend it!
Nice to see you can do two 64gb sticks I was wondering about that - and now off to buy a bunch of them
Exactly! Yeah it works great.
Dude, bro, thanks. I just stumbled across this video and it reminded me that I have an outdated modded psp in my room somewhere.
Heck yeah!!
My PS3 brought me here. Lol I just got mine back out today and installed remote joy lite on my computer to play on a bigger screen. I have the component cables but for some reason quit working.

Can it run Crysis
Ahahaha! Yeah no kidding

yeah absolutely in 4k resolution too ;)
Baba Khalid yep with no lag or frame drop
My printer can run crysis.

Yeah I was totally surprised to find out how much it could emulate and pull off! Hey thanks man I am excited for sure!!
Those memory duo cards are awesome.
Dude I agree!
Yeah that was awesome and the reason that made buy a psp recently. You can do a lot with the size of memory sticks.
How??? They only held up to 32GB, which is only good unless you were modding.
Or you like use umd for battery killer

@விஷ்ணு கார்த்திக் : No, that's still a myth that these drain batteries a lot. Even less if they had used MiniDisc / HiMD instead of UMD. Have you seen that a lot of MiniDisc walkmen ran on a single AA alkaline battery? They lasted quite long with one battery charge. Because the content doesn't need to constantly being read. Only when the data is actually accessed and buffered in the ram. Flash Memory was and still is way too expensive per Gigabyte and also not very reliable. Especially for longterm data storage.
I love my modded PSP, the screen quality and battery life on the damn thing are astoundingly good still today. I once lost it down the side of the couch for 6 weeks, and when I turned it back on from power-save it STILL had half a charge! I haven't even watched this video yet because I KNOW a modded PSP is still useful. Ima watch now. ;-)
Yeah the battery life is great!
Oh, one last thing, the PSP-1000 IS indeed moddable. In fact, back in the day when I got mine, it was the only model that WAS moddable. ;-) Loved the video, time to check out moar!
10:16 didnt even know there was guilty gear on the psp time to get that
Yeah!!
If you have so many games and emulators you should use the game categories lite plugin to organise that stuff lol, makes it a lot easier to find specific stuff
Thanks yes that would be awesome! It really would be nice to have it managed by a front end of some type.
If you know how to use it, it saves a ton of time searching for stuff, I have mine separate my psp games, from emulators, from homebrew stuff etc
I just love my psp, bought it 4 years ago for 100$ and it nevers gets old :D, especiaaly because of all the emulators I have on ti :)
by the way where do you buy decent batteries for those , the ebay ones just seem like crap
TIMELESS!! Yeah they are amazing when loaded up. The batteries are hit or miss, but I did find mine on ebay or amazon a few years back. Seems like the first one I bought was on amazon and it was defective and had to return it.
bought a memory stick for my PSP and it should be arriving next week. I am planning on modding my old PSP with 128gb of storage to work with.
obviously i'm adding my favourites back in the day, as well as adding games I never got the chance to play.
I saved cash by turning my PSP into a playstation classic thanks emulators :)
I was recently going to sell my PSP 1000 but after watching your video. I'll never ever sell it
NICE!! That is most excellent.
the Vita blows the PSP away.. but it is still a great system.. what i dont like is the analog stick will need repair quicker that other systems.. and there is only one.. if i have a choice between a modded psp and a modded vita.. ima take the vita every time.
slikdarelic I don't have a vita yet, so that's why I'm still playing my psp. I'll get one eventually though.
I really dont think you can mod a vita yet
Hey Retro.. its gettin just as easy as the PSP.. u need to have 3.60.. so anything lower is good.
Adrian Garcia.. ur jokin right? if u arent, ur about 5yrs behind my friend.. i think u better check youtube.. lol.
since when can you mod them lmao now i finally have a reason to buy one
hell yeah Marcus!!!!! im modding mine tonight!
Nick Nelson aka Nelly Dude nice! ! Yeah let me know if you have any questions.
i def have some questions actually. il message you on fb messenger
A modded psp or any sort of modded console is as relevant as you make it. The Psp can be a Gameboy, Nintendo, Genesis, N64, Playstation, Multimedia station, Remote control for your tv. The sky is the limit...
Remote for tv? Never thought of that, cool!
Even a voip phone
I don't know why but the psp has a charm that no other console has, I love the psp
I really dig the smaller compact disc format as well
anyone know the link to a perfectly running crash bandicoot playstation one game, the copy i keep running across freezes up at a the second or third save point, the game basically freezes up, please help
I would try the iso's on theisozone. There at least 2 different images.
Man this takes me back. The PSP was my first modded system and I loved it. Time to bust it out and play some Metal Slug!
I would rather play on a modded PS Vita where I can play my PSP games and also second analog stick is a game changer for PSP games. I also enjoy playing PS3 through Remote Play.
Yeah I need to get one still, they do sound awesome
I forgot to tell my dad when he buys it it gonnna be moded
Haha
And the Ghosts and Goblins' Ghouls and Ghost franchise was that THANG!!! Capcom was so beast back in the day!!!
Camcom used to be NEAR perfect! And yes this game really was hyped up back then, for good reason too!!
Yes
Hell yes!
don"t forget the remote joy stuff...
You can basically plug it into a windows pc via USB and play tekken 6 on your monitor or laptop. it streams the gameplay video really good!
gets a little choppy sometimes, and we have emulators like ppsspp today, but still... this old stuff works too!!!
i used to play tekken 6 like crazy on a old laptop...
it runs pretty well, too.
i don't remember the software name though...
Oh yeah... I bought my used silver PSP-2000 in like... 2009? still runs like a charm!!!! nothing broken.
Nice I will check it out!! Thanks!
U playing on ur tv using component cables?
Yes I have both the component and the composite cables, so when traveling I bring the composite but for the video I used the component cables.
City of gold!!!! Loved that cartoon as a small child. No one i know remembers it
Thanks for SUBSCRIBING to Sunset Hotline and Keeping It Retro! Here is my video on a Modded Wii ruclips.net/video/JAdF0MyOjM8/видео.html
Where do you get the movies from ? Not the converter the mp4s
Hey I know this is a really old video you may or may not see this comment but for the adapter duo it can be any brand sd card or just Sony?
Question does it Drain battery faster or takes time
@@jeremiahstevens554 Any brand, I've got links in the description on Amazon
@@oscarruda7200 I used to get them from torrentz sites. Things have changed after all the shutdowns, but you can still find them if you look hard enough and have good anti-virus software.
got the 1004 fat, my memorystick duo will arrive this monday im so excited will mod it instant and download so many games :)
hope everything will work
Nice!
A moded Vita is superior in every way
I found out after I updated my Vita firmware last spring
Too bad HENKAKU is limited to old firmware. Until that limitation is gone (possibly never?), it won't be superior in one way: ease of installation.
still waiting for a hack on fw 3.65
Rikku Freak it's not a contest.
Vita doesn't fit in my pocket
If you install a plugin you can use folders for your games. It's super easy to set up, just google it. Also It prevents those insanely long wait times
PERFECT Thank you
sure thing :) I'm happy I could help
I nodded my PSP - 1004 with 27 games on a memory stick and sold it for 200$ then bought 3 more
Edit - sorry I bought 1 more and 1 Vita
Great video, just inspired me to buy a PSP for £22 and one of those adapters for £1.09 - have loads of old Micro SD cards laying about. This is my 4th PSP after selling the previous 3
AWESOME!!
PLEEEEEEEASEEE!!!!
Change that intro!!!!!!
generation RAD😎😎😎😎😎
I loved their headphones!! That little power remote was great
The 1st psp was in my opinion much better and sturdier than the following models. It had a nice mechanism for the UMDs, had a better grip (was more thick on the edges) and the finish was much more nicer than the slim, because the slim was actually black shiny plastic which gave it a cheapo look, when the original PSP was a black plastic background with an overlay of clear plastic, giving it an awesome look.
I dont even care about handheld consoles but that castlevania theme just catch me on a tight spot to consider buying one just to emulate all the castlevania series.
The PSP is the best portable ever when you mod it. I did back in high school and played a lot of emulators and ISOs on it. I still play mine every now and then, though definitely not as much as I used to.
Love this thing, and yeah I still play mine but should be taking it everywhere
Retro Game Players I found that the Genesis emulation worked the best. What I loved about the modding scene was that people started making eboots of any and every PS1 game, even stuff that wasn't even on the PSN store. I had a lot of fun back in the day with my PSP.
Unrelated question, what is the star fox looking game that you have playing in the background? Curious it looks awesome!
Louis Arias Geist Force
Hello guys, nice vidéo... I just baught a brand new used handheld emulation gaming console for christmas.
A Silver 2004 PSP. And this cause of your video. This beauty cost me 25€ (~25$). If you look for cheap emulation gaming just go for it. Cheaper than Raspberry, and more handy than used PC...You can't play multi with retro games. That for me the only inconvenient with this setup. But for the price and the quality of the device, it's not a big deal, and you can steel play multi with PSP games even online.
It's my first handheld console and i'm happy with it...THX
lol i love how you have Geist Force playing in the background
Heck yeah thanks
i've been using the composite out on my 3000 to play PS1 games on a CRT TV and it works amazing
heck yeah!!
Got a PSP with CFW from my brother years ago (when you could still find PSP games in retail) and spent soooo much time with a GBA emulator running on there. By now, the battery is completely dead, not holding even a little bit of charge, so I upgraded to a Vita. That thing is a beast, and absolutely amazing for games that only got translations made by fans. If I ever get my hands on a working PSP battery, the old thing is going to get a system update, as much storage as I can manage, and all the translation patches I can fit on there.
Love this! I still bring my modded psp everywhere i go!
AWESOME
You my friend just earned yourself a sub. Enjoyed the video and finally going tok mod my psp. Thank you. Keep up the great work.
I recently bought psp for 35€. Added custom firmware. Now playing psp,ps1,gb/gbc,gba games :) best way to emulate old games.
I miss my 2000's. Someone stole it from my house 7 years ago, i remember my emulators and my childhood psx games 😭. I will be getting one for my son this weekend, saw a shop that still sells brand new 3000's. I will be taking care of it for it will be still awesome years from now.
That bastard!! Yeah a new one would be cool for sure.
Ugh so blessed i still have a psp
definitely!
I own a PlayStation Portable and I mostly use it as an on-the-go entertainment machine, and it's a PSP-1003.
Heck yeah!! I have watched tons of movies and shows on it with that projector.
really enjoyed the video. I love that you can hook the PSP up to the TV, it's great for us older guys! lol
great video i modded my psp and i love all them old ps1 games huge fan of them
