    i wish a segacd emu would come out, i know its possible, it just needs the right team of coders, and lots of time and work. Sonic cd, lunar, and all of those other classics would be fun to play on the psp.

    I'm really sorry to disappoint you all (I also have a Sega CD system) but its very unlikely that this will ever happen on a PSP. Most PC emulation teams still working on the system (see Gens32) are struggling to make the roms run on a top end PC. (The Sega CD has 5 different chipsets to emulate). However its obviously a popular system as the work is still continuing.

    You can now play Heart of the Alien on your PSP. Check the news section.

    That's not true. It doesn't require anywhere near a top end PC to run sega CD emulation. All the Sega CD added was a second m68k, a simple video overlay chip, and a relatively powerful sound chip. It maybe doubles-ish the required specifications of the Genesis/MD.
    If anyone is looking to buy, sell, trade games and support a developer directly at the same time, consider joining Goozex. Enjoy!

    Obviously the scene has overtaken what I knew of then, as only 8 months ago people were saying there would never be a decent emulator for PC never mind PSP!
