Some things i need to know...

[IBlackIHIawk]

Ok so i got a psp when it first came out and i upgraded it to 2.0 and havent used it since

I would like to be able to play games like final fantasy or w.e with the emulators on here

The size memory card i have is 512mb (is this enough?)

ALSO

I do not have a usb cord, just a memory card reader...will i be able to downgrade without the cord or do i need to get the usb cord?

Also can someone post or link me to a list of games/emulators that are ranked best

Im not really sure about all this, the only thing i have ever modded is my xbox and that was hardmods..

Here are some cool emulators/apps:

A memory card reader is all you need.

As for memory, most SNES games are under 10MB, so it all depends on how much you want to put on.

K thanks for the post

Do you know what downgrader is best for 2.0?

I have been reading the faqs and guides but i want to be sure 100% how to do this before i do it

v2.0/v2.01 Downgrader 1.0 by Noobz - that is the downgrader im going to attempt to use (good or bad?)

Then it says i need an eboot thing, i dont know for sure what file this is .98 or something (could someone post or pm me a link, preferably someone trusted/known user)

It then says open the downgrader via eloader (the thing above) and then do some other steps

Then it says something about a bluescreen and deciding if u want to keep one or the other

Does this mean u can like switch btw 1.5 and 2.0?
or
are they talking about after u downgraded to 1.0 and havent installed 1.5?


To downgrade, you need to select the 'set to v1.00' option (the Circle button).
This will fake your PSP to version 1.00. Once you've completed the process,
you can run the v1.5 Update EBOOT, directly from your PSP's Game menu.

Note that when the v1.5 Update is 99% complete, it will display an error message
that it has 'failed - contact Sony customer support, error code FFFFFFFFF'.
This is OK! Just power off your PSP, and reboot it.
You then get a blue screen, saying "Press O to reset your settings" in several
languages. Press O, and your PSP reboots again - voila! You now have a v1.5 PSP.

Note that, before you install the 1.5 Update, your PSP is still really a
v2.0 or v2.01 PSP, but it will claim to be v1.0. If you've changed your mind
about downgrading, you can choose to rerun the downgrader, and restore your
old version number, with either the Cross or Square button, as appropriate.

Also could you give me a link or list of snes games that are available, or are all the games like computer roms that u just put onto ur psp?

It is called MPH downgrader. It is the safest and best downgrader of all downgraders. It doesn't actually downgrade, it tricks the psp to think its 1.00and upgrades to 1.50 with sonys upgrader

v2.0/v2.01 Downgrader 1.0 by Noobz
-----------------------------------
(based on techniques by MPH and SonyXTeam)

Official website: www.noobz.eu



ALSO: Quick question before i do this in like 1 min:

what is this and where do i find this:

How do I use it?
----------------

That's easy. First you need eLoader 0.98 or later (get it from www.noobz.eu).
Install eLoader, and make sure that it is working for you by loading some
nice safe homebrew (e.g. Squarez).

[Destroyer699]

I suggest you use this one.

As for memory, most SNES games are under 10MB, so it all depends on how much you want to put on.

For clarification, no SNES game is over 4mb. Its the maximum cart size they could handle.
