PS1 on PSP??

**mauro2029** · June 8th, 2006, 06:18

Hey the other day I saw on a tv show about video games an image of an E3 presentation, where there was a psp and kind of a connection with a ps1. I don't know much about the psp, is there a way to run ps1 games on a psp? Or is it someting sony plans to do?

What you saw was most likely the psp playing emulated psone games. Sony has a some plan to release some sort of way to play psone games on the psp, But we really dont know a whole lot about it at the moment.
We dont even know if it will be emulaton that plays psone games, Or a program sony will be doing to port psone games so they can be played on the psp for a fee.
At the moment we are pretty much in the dark about it

LOL I amost forgot about that

I don't think I would give up everything just to play PSOne games that I would probly have to wait for. Lets hope someone somewere sometime will figure out something.

I just hope they just release a program to let us compress the games we have right now to PSP playble. That way we wont have to pay for each game. Somehow i dont think it'll happen.

Metal gear acid, Darkstalkers the chaos tower,
grand theft auto, socom fire team bravo, need for speed underground rivals

And of corse in the homebrew scean.
I recomend snes9x emu,
Daedalus the n64 emu, homers rin the game boy emu, and nester J the Nes emu, and beyond that, I recomend having a blast with your psp

having two psp's at this point is best one at 1.5 and the other for future sony updates for the ps1 emu
