Download this awesome release via Comments and Give Your Feedback and let us know what games work on the PSP :)

simply amazing, i dont think people realize the caliber of this... just imagine any of those java phone games their all yours.. their are just a few bugs to be ironed out... and then this will be the next MAME for me :)

Hey wragg it only has the folder PSPVKM now, and it goes inside PSP/GAME, you should fix that. :)

Anyways, I just tested Splinter Cell 4, Rainbox Six 3, and Need for Speed: Pro Street. SC4 loads but it looks so freaking tiny... I hope there's a way to make the resolution bigger. Look. -.- And it freezes in the first stage.

NFS:PS didn't load...

And Rainbow Six 3 works:

It's a Nice emulator. :D

Fantastic emu!

Assassins Creed is pretty good on it. :)

They are so tiny because you bought or you just downloaded the versions of the game for Sony Ericsson k700 (176x220) or Sony Ericsson k500 (128x160).Few games are multisize (just the recent ones)....j2me games were usually sold at different sizes (for different mobile models).
When you chose the version of Rainbow Six you have from the gui...just press the traingle button and chose Sony Ericsson k700 model with the circle button..then load the game.You will see the game centrally sized....without scrolling errors.Do the same with the Splinter Cell version you have (a chose 128x160 device).
Thanks a lot to the creator.It's a dream comes true. :thumbup:

Wow, nice masso! Thanks for the tips. Now I love the emulator even more. Thanks again!

It is a truly amazing emulator. He originally said sound would be implemented in this release but ran into some problems. Once that is added, it will be unbelievably awesome!

Doom rpg works now!!

WOW

nice app this

let me put this on the psp

As i said in another post about the other J2ME emulator (pspME) I tried more than 1200 games in the PSPKVM and 80% of them go! (there are exceptions and the ones with 3d graphics).The games for mobile phones are todays as good as the snes/gba games..they have responsivness,good graphic, fluid scrolling and animations, transparencies....and most of all....they are SMALL....the bigger ones are 500kb

Games that don't work
Ancient Empires II - it display a message of error during loading time - This is one of the best rpg games for mobile phones
Uwan Fighter -one of the best shooters..it doesn't work the 320x240..it works well the 176x208 version...but it lacks lot of graphic details and smoothing animations...
Alpha Wing 2 - the other great shooter ....it freezes after the choice of the ship and mission..
Bubble Boom 2 One of the best Zuma Clones for mobile phone
Call od Duty 2commands doesn't work and action seems accellerated a lot!
Mahjong Paradise 2 and 3 - game loads but it doesn't accept input commands
Prince of Persia series - nor Harem Adventure or The Sand of Time or Warrior Within Work
The SettlersMenu work..it is stuck at loading screen.
Truck Tycoon
Midnight Bowling
Midnight Casino
Fantasy Warriors 2 Good
Anakonda

Many racing pseudo 3d games like Racing Fever GT, Red Out Racer, Speed Chaser, Speed Devils, Speed Spirit, The Fast and Furious, V-Rallydoesn't work
Al the incredible Fishlabs 3D games don't work just as the 99% of the other 3D games for mobile phones.

LikeMasso said, these games are similar to SNES games but are updated with today's type of games such as God of War and Call of Duty.

Thanks for the list, Masso! :)

This is indeed an emulator with an enormous potential. I don't get it, why people aren't freakin out...

Keep up the good work, thank you. It's really appreciated :)

I agree. The first version was released to the public about two weeks ago and it made hardly any news. I think it is the best homebrew/Emulator(excluding DA's M33) addition since Picodrive.

I broke the story to PSPUpdates and also on the ********** forums and there hasn't been any response. At least there are some responses here.

great news, i never thought j2me games would be playable on the psp.

This is Sex, Just pure plesurable sex.

Very impressed with this. I just hope this gets fixed in the future.

1) Sound
2) The option to scale up the display (verticaly) when running on lower res (some games can't run in the higher res since they were ment for a lower one).

Over all this is fantastic. I hope it goes further to add 3D support.

This is just pure awesome! im gonna put god of war betrayal on my psp asap! thanks again for this awesome release!

We just need sound implemented now

and its done

Nokia N73 games seem to work good aswell

Sweet, thanks Sleeper, great update. Now for some sound.... Thanks to Masso for a compatability list also.

hey i like this, i can play doom rpg on my psp now! thanks dude!

now all we need is sound >_<
and maybe...possibly... 3d support :p

EDIT: I think i found a bug, where the emulator freezes when looking in one of the games directory in my cellphone folder.... is this happening to anyone else? I notice it happens when its trying to load the icon picture next to the name of the game

It freezes if you have a bad file in there. Figure out which games is bad, delete it and then it should work. I know that .sis files will do this.

ah ok, yea i discovered those .sis files wouldnt work right, and i guess some of my .jar files are corrupted possibly, so that may play a role in it >_<

Does this mean that games such as Runescape might be possible on the PSP (eventually)?
If so, that'd be awesome!

PSPKVM and pspME are now merged. Sound support coming in the next couple of days!!! Check it out here:

:)
