Hi i just want to know a few facts about sony's proposed psone emu, is it true you have to buy psone converted games to put on your memory stick or can you convert your own discs(that you legaly own) to play on your psp. Would appreciate any feedback.
cheers
i think they are putting them all on umd's but selling for a much cheaper price.
Honestly, nobody knows how the ps1 emulator will work.
Just had an idea though, what, if instead of a firmware update with the ps1 emu on it, they release the discs with one game on it and the emulator is designed for the game on the disc. This would up compatibility, and it would not take up space on the nand.
That'd be fun, but I doubt stores would be willing to stock all those games for cheap prices.
There is spectulation that Sony will not incorporate the emulator into the firmware, but rather release it as an EBOOT, accessable like the game demos out right now.
hmm... I think they'll most probs have the downloads on the "YourPSP" site or whatever.. but you gotta register and buy the "downloads" off the net or summet.
I'll be a bit annoyed if they release the emu with a newer firmware.
tbh it would be a smart move on Sony's part but.. I still hope they don't lol.
I'm pretty sure it will be that you have to pay for the games. I'm certainly not upgrading. Dev Hook will probably be able to emulate it any way.
I have seen a vid of how it works.
It is downloaded via E-Distribution in next FW
It is run from the Memory Stick
The PS1 emulator is a built-in emulation engine and not an actual program.
Let me guess. Sony'll be selling the games through their Connect Store. They just started to code it to display better on PSPs, and they're probably getting ready for it now.
Is it possible that they're just porting all of the games? Because the PSP is widescreen and PS1 is fullscreen, so if they just made an emulator, it would be stretched out. Obviously all of the games would need to have their resolution edited to look normal.
