In May, Znullptr (https://twitter.com/Znullptr) (David Miller) was working on porting various emulators to the PlayStation 4 thus beefing up its homebrew lineup which makes hacking the console more appealing.
Among emulators that were being worked on, we find PCSX-R (PS1), Yabause (Saturn), Blast-Em (Genesis), Reicast (Dreamcast) and mGBA (GB/GBC/GBA). Unfortunately, he stopped working on these emulators earlier this month (https://www.patreon.com/posts/switching-to-of-28305605) as he switched focus to developing a usermode virtualizer for the PlayStation 4 but PKGs for Yabuase (https://www.psx-place.com/resources/yabause-sega-saturn-emulator.850/), Reicast (https://www.psxhax.com/threads/reicast-sega-dreamcast-emulator-ps4-port-in-development-demo-video.6776/) and mGBA (https://www.psx-place.com/resources/mgba-ps4.836/) eventually surfaced online.
Now, a PKG of PCSX-R for the PS4 has surfaced thanks to Markus95 (https://twitter.com/Markus00095/status/1151593465588912128) which means that you can finally emulate PlayStation 1 games on a hacked PlayStation 4 without booting into Linux. However, the emulator isn’t 100% finished and has some bugs such as broken save functionality, cutscenes lagging and sound not functioning properly. Furthermore, you can only load a single ROM at a time so you have to rename the “game.bin” file that the emulator uses in order to play different games.
To grab the emulator’s PKG, check out this link to Logic-Sunrise’s article (http://www.logic-sunrise.com/news-1065617-ps4-pcsx-r-disponbile-sur-ps4.html) about it and scroll to the bottom. A video of the emulator in action
