Off Of the HomePage:

Like announce last august 4th, another PS one emulator was in preparation and since that announcement, the PSP community is divided into two sides: those who think that its fake, and those who hope that its true. click on the suite to learn a little more.

More translation of the Main Article:

Then since august 4th, i have my attention reached on the emulator and what it has really become. then we have therefore made a little point on the evolution of the emulator.

then if certain beginnings start to support what is in the pace of the programmers of the emulator, officially, i would not say all to the subject of its not an only programmer but many who work on the project. one good initiative what my leash thinks what the project has truly advanced very quickly

tid bit more:

returning to preceding announcements, it is necessary, unfortunately, to revise the FPS number to the fall verse a 25/30 fps. this is not having: of all manners, of consequences on the quality of the emulation bus made in the PS one do not post that one small FPS of 25 in PAL and of 30 in NTSC. for the other characterisitics, it looks like what all that is to say always with programs but not still established in the actual version

the difinitive version would have been coded in assemblir so it would optimise the maximum and profit the maximum of rapidness. The subject, i have had the chance to test this morning, a meadow version of the emulator and it is necessary to regocnize what the playability of the romm that i have tried were the same good if the ratio of the images per seconds was still weak (env. 14 fps). This version not being absolutely optimised has me sending just like a POC (proof of concept) and so making to conceal the rumor of "its a fake"

(note: these are being translated pretty fast, so i cant vouch for their 100% accuracy)

kewl, i never really backup my console games as it is a very small price to get them repaired, like 2 pounds

[Accordion]

wow.

[Zombo]

hmmm...

[aries2k4]

Hm, I still holding on to my hopes simply because I think I can trust the people who are backing it. On my local forum noone beleives. I think I might be the only guy in my country who believes this. The Yoshiro scandal was before my time but I thought the accusations were about stolen code.
I was wondering if someone could give me some info.
I was told that Yoshiro had announced a 2.0 to 1.5 downgrader, asked for donations, even provided a video and then turned out to be fake.
This was one of the reasons I was trying to find out who the supposed other coders are, it would help to gain credibility.
Oh well I guess we´ll find out soon enough.

Edit
Anyone got a translation for the translation

OK figured out the other coder. is it just 2?

Aries: Yea, around this time last year, maybe a little later, Team WAB, consisting of Yoshizero, Alonetrio, and another guy who i cant remember said they were working on a downgrader. They claimed to have gotten past 3 layers of security, but they couldn't get past the fourth layer. They kept releasing fake videos, and asking for donations to fix a bricked psp that happened in the process.... Then news came from their site that Alonetrio was arrested, and that the development would stop... This turned out to be fake. A couple days later, PSP-DEV who was working with WAB called the project off... A couple weeks passed, and MPH released his downgrader. Yoshizero claimed that MPH stole his idea, even though their methods were different...

That's not all Yoshizero did wrong in his "coding career". He released a SMS emulator with stolen source code. This source code was from a closed source emulator, and the original dev became pissed and demanded that the emulator was to be pulled from all psp sites....

Let's just hope he is not working on it, or else we really know this vaporware.

The only thing that bothers me is that this was announced. I really don't see the use of announcing anything if you have nothing to back up your statements. Send a proof of concept or something of the sort.

If they are lying then they had a lot of people get excited for nothing. Just like UltraHLE on PSP. In the long run it didn't damage the scene or anything, but it tought us a nice lesson about things being announced without any proof.

I hope that this gets released, if it does not, I would love to see all PSP sites not announce any of this type of news in the future without proof of concept.

While this does drive traffic to a site, it can also drive away readers from a site.(pspudates anyone?)
