Sony's upcoming PSone emulator pics?

Posted Apr 5, 2006 at 10:42AM by QJ Staff Listed in: Firmware, News, Rumors Tags:

Far be it for us at QJ to put up any fake news, but when sifting through the daily sand dune of emails, a nice gem gleamed in the rough. We have received these (very convincing in my opinion) images of the upcoming PSone emulator for the PSP, created by none other than Sony themselves (as Ken detailed himself). The emulator will allow users to download games onto their PSP's memory stick and run them via the "Game" menu on the PSP (which sounds just like what we do already.)

For example, (according to the images,) Gran Turismo 2 will support both ad-hoc (2 players) and infrastructure modes (2-6 players.) The cost on the (I will again iterate convincing) image will be at $15, which although pricey, is much cheaper than current PSP UMD games, and brings us the youthful joy at a reasonable price. But you don't have to take my word for it, I'll let you read the news tip as well and decide for yourself, because we can never be too sure:

"My friend who is a designer at sony gave me these pics, he said that this is what the psone emulator for psp will look like. he said that the games will be downloaded by a program shown in the screenshots and will be played under "game". I think this is true because he showed them to me from his camera which doesn't show ANY edited images."

Thanks for the newstip Al!

Edit: Ok, $15 is expensive, but it's better to pay $15 for a game with probably no loading times and better playability than most of today's UMDs. (Although $5 would definitely be much more reasonable, and to their benefit in sales of antiquated games.)

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOO

ok if these are fake then i feel bad for n(.).(.)bs because they will make so many threds about this

N(.)(.)BS DONT POST ABOUT THIS ONLY IN SPECULATION

# Fake — Guest 2006-04-05 05:50

The design is too cheap to come from Sony.

The PSP font is used but that's all.

I can put up fake screens that will look way more convincing than this.

# sony is desperate — Guest 2006-04-05 05:55

they are so freakin desperate for $ since now that umd movies are totally out the window, that they are hoping to capitalize on the psone emulator by selling the images at 15$ . wtf, f'u sony . i aint paying 15$ for games that I basically already own, hows about you kiss my ass.... hackers, make sure u hax that emu so we can use our own images, pfft

# Hey — moooooocow 2006-04-05 05:57

Has anyone thought about the button layout on this thing? and whether or not it will support the analog nub? I suppose you could have the button layout as is and just make the L2 and R2 buttons the left and right analog nub direction respectfully. But only time will tell, I think that if these images are true and so close to E3 that Song will release this in a new update during the week of E3 or a week after.

# what???????????????? — Guest 2006-04-05 05:57

i think 5.00$ is good price but 15.00$ is to much.

# Cheap???? — Guest 2006-04-05 05:58

Hell 15$ is not exactly cheap for games I already played...

# cool — Guest 2006-04-05 06:00

i think £5 would be better, so tthats like $7 i think

This looks cool

# gdhjhg — Guest 2006-04-05 06:04

Ah but for 15 $ It would be worth it to play FF7 and Castlevania SOTN on the handheld. There are a few games I would buy for 15$ a piece.

# Fakies — Guest 2006-04-05 06:05

Like the other person commented. It's fake simply because of the bad design. Vertical type? Where in the PSP OS is vertical type used? And what is that, Helvetica bold?

Again, what satisfaction do these children get from mocking up fake images and trying to pass them off as real?

# a — Guest 2006-04-05 06:05

What a random assortment of popular games, I'm confused why they're are so few, and not many are actually by sony. The first few games should be expected to be game developed by Sony.

# What if we already own the games — Casablanca Gamer 2006-04-05 06:07

What if we already own the games, should we pay again to play them on the PSP ? They should let us burn our psone games and use them with the emulator.

Also wondering what they will do for the lacking L2 and R2 buttons on the psp.

# already have um — Guest 2006-04-05 06:08

Dang a 1.5 psp kicks this thing in the butt, the homebrew scene already has doom, doom 2, duke nukem, quake+ad hoc, and quake 2

i laugh in the face of people with a 2.6 and the people willing to pay for such games i mentioned above

i have a 1.5 muahahaha

# Ah, hell no. — Guest 2006-04-05 06:12

I can buy a used psp game for less at eB. Sony, you fail.

Show these biches how it's done, homebrewers.

# FAKE. — Guest 2006-04-05 06:14

Did you know that it is possible to fake EXIF data from an image?

It's pretty easy, and I'm surprised fakers use them so infrequently...

My two cents here.

# this is a good thing — DigitalFx 2006-04-05 06:15

We know we will figure out on the 3.0 how to run homebrew because if they are using the menu we should be able to be able to decompile and figure out how they are running the software from the game menu. and i am sure there will be an easy way of sharing the games people download... so this can be a good thing after all lol.

# probably fake — Guest 2006-04-05 06:15

Sony would definatly have to consider ERSB rating and making deals with each gaming company allowing them to convert the ps1 images into psp eboots. I doubt sony can make a goood enough emulator to play ps1 games, they would need to redo the entire control schemes. Also, It would cause tons of pirating. If someone was able to run the images through a firmware loader, then that would be pirate heaven. I don't think sony is ready to release anything like this.

it is out of order makin us pay twice for a game. im hopeing my ff7 clone will work out then i dont even care about this emu

# Yup, fake. — Guest 2006-04-05 06:17

I agree with that guy posting it's fake... But it's way simpler:

You just have to edit a XMB screenshot and show the results on the PSP display.

Then you'll have a faked photograph.

Honestly, im not one to go "OMG Photoshop", but if you look at the bottom 2 pictures, what are the chances that those wavy lines (in the background) are in the EXACT same spots.... I take these pics as a grain of salt because of this or else i would have probably believed this. Better luck next time... =P

# umm no — thefirstWARLoRD 2006-04-05 06:21

basicly im gonna have yo but another psp even if i wantted this (providing my ff7 clone willl work if it doies i dont want the emu) but im ot loseing my 1.5fw emus work too well with it

# GT $15 — Guest 2006-04-05 06:22

Maby the games will be sold at different prices and GT is more expensive than some for some reason. And this is probably fake ill believe it when i see it from sony.

# FAKE! — Guest 2006-04-05 06:23

Ignore these fake concept..the author of these pics just want to get a kick out of them...these post are just help fueling the flame.

# What about — marv101 2006-04-05 06:24

games we already own? Can we not make images of these to use? If they are worried about Piracy, what about downloading some sort of software that checks the authenticity of the PSOne CD, and digitally sign the ISO that is created to only work in the designated (ie. your) PSP? I don't want to spend money on a game I already own.

# Pretty Cool! — mgsfan73 2006-04-05 06:24

I wouldnt mind paying 15 bucks! Although i just got my psp and accidentally updated to 2.6, finally figured out the emulators. Hmmmmm, SNES, or PS1. Tough choice.

# yeah — Guest 2006-04-05 06:35

a few games might be worth 15 bucks but i own most of the good ps1 games id want to buy. Like resident evil and MGS. I dont think sony would sell ps1 games for $15 bucks they already screwed up by over pricing UMD movies they dont want to do it again.

# Ungrateful Bastards — Guest 2006-04-05 06:37

Ok, so they are fakes, but as for you people complaining about having to pay for the PS1 game downloads, you're kinda giving off that ungrateful bastard vibe, I mean Sony doesn't even have to do a PS1 emulator But they are, they are working on it, and in case you didn't notice, The PSP is missing a few buttons, so Sony are aiming to re-do some code on games to make it compatable with the PSP BUT also are working on a way to compress the files so they take up less space than the PS1 versions!, So it's quite common they will want some money for this.

Those picture arnt even lined up right so the wavy lines arnt the same.

# Two hopes and worries — The_Skizzy 2006-04-05 06:40

I truly hope that Sony will allow us to store these games separately from our PSP. It's fantastic that we will be able to download them, and the $15 price isn't bad at all in my opinion... sure they're older games, but they're now portable and try finding some of the old PS1 games in good condition for under $20. I just hope it's not a "Play once then discard" Scenerio... hopefully if that's the case they will allow us to redownload the games to our specific PSP's

One other quandry: what about the other two shoulder buttons on the PS1 controller? I guess it'll be a little more than a direct port... maybe sone rewriting of the control code?

either way I can't wait... Oldschool gaming!!!

# of course its a fake — Guest 2006-04-05 06:41

# overflow.tiff 2006-04-05 06:41

either way there will be a psone emu in fw 3.00.

its already been confirmed!!!!

# L + R buttons — Guest 2006-04-05 06:42

a special usb plugin will be made to fit on top of the PSP in the usb slot and hey presto there is your L2 + R2 buttons

Great idea doubt it will happen !!!!!

# hmmmmm — Guest 2006-04-05 06:44

"I think this is true because he showed them to me from his camera which doesn't show ANY edited images." i dont understand? why would a camera not show edited images? my camera will show an image if its been edited.

yes 15$ is too much thats £10 or somthin, looks like there gona make alot of profet cause its gona cost them virtualy nothing to distribute these games.

yeah gta2 was on ps1 tard

# Download time? — Guest 2006-04-05 06:45

If this was real, do you have any idea how long it would take to download a full sized PSOne game over wireless B? My understanding was that it was going to be integrated through a PC application and then transferred to the PSP via USB like all other media. It also seems like the PS3 would be a great platform for that, since the PSP is going to interface with the PS3.

Well, to be honest I do not know whether or not this news is fake. QJ.NET has posted some fake news before so it would not surprise me. But then, so do other news sites.

The fact remains that SONY's PS One emulator will be available in the near future, but I can not help but wonder howSONY intends to try to stop people from pirating these games.

# ? — Guest 2006-04-05 06:54

Nobody has mentioned that the list of games is mostly in alphabetical order, then at the end they go from Twisted Metal 2 to Quake 2.

# How will PS1 games look on the PSP — TigerClaw 2006-04-05 07:09

I'm curious as to how the PS1 games will looko on the PSP, PSP games are made to support the full 16:9 aspect ratio of the PSP screen, While PS1 games were in the 4:3 format which is regular TV, Surely they would have the option to stretch the image to fit the entire screen.

# If they can make, we can break it.... — Guest 2006-04-05 07:55

IF Sony has made a REAL PS1 emulator, which I doubt because of firmware size limitations, we can break it. It's just another part of the OS. In fact, if this is true, then Sony practically is begging hackers to open it up. Since the GTA exploit, nothing is safe. About the pics, it's honestly not that hard to get a second screen shot from the PSP with the clock at a later time and the lines in a different place. One more thing, why wouldn't the "faker" just use a custom background, so no lines would show?

Prove that.

# ... — Guest 2006-04-05 07:57

Well, I just posted this on the official UK forums and it got locked (and the images deleted) pretty quickly by the moderators. They said "Sorry people, until images/videos of any new PSP updates are released officially through either the PlayStation or PSP website, they cannot be posted on the Forums."

That sounds like it's the real stuff to me but they don't want it released to the public yet.

Who cares if the images are fake? People are looking too close at the pics. I mean analyzing the type of font used good god a little over thinking this arn't you guys? It has already be stated by sony themselves that the new firmware will support ps1 emulation so just wait untill it comes out to see what the interface looks like. Chances are if these even it these are real the look of them will change before it is released.

As for the $15 price tag that could change. If not I am sure someone will find a way to run the game isos from the emulator instead of buying them.

too bad were not gonna see this for about a million years but.....its a start.....I wonder if there gonna have the street fighter games up there......i just find it hard to believe that they could get this all achieved at this time....???? any one else feel the same way...

# Just think... — Guest 2006-04-05 08:31

Sony gave us the PSP, without the PSP you and everyone on this site will not be here talking about psp's or even thinking about it. So accept it. Sony needs money to create games, ps3's and what not. It's there for your entertainment.

So if a PS1 for PSP comes out or not accept it and move on. Don't *****! Not as if they going to change their ways. Phone them and ask if you need answers.

# fake — Guest 2006-04-05 08:35

OH god thats so faked its not funny.

You say 15$ is expensive now, wait till they charge 30$ per game. You are so forgetting this is still Sony.

# you idiots — capagotks 2006-04-05 08:44

everyone thinks that the release of the emulator will bring back homebrew. WRONG! when you try and load homebrew on 2.01+ it says its corrupt. but the emulator will be written in "sony's code" and thus it will not be corrupt and run on 1.51, 1.52, 2.01+ etc

# alphabetical order ? — F34R 2006-04-05 08:45

The list isnt in alphabetical order either. It's attempted, but someone doesnt know that : L comes before : T . Too bad it's just another fake. I wonder if qj is following in the footsteps of psp3d lol.

# Actually — Guest 2006-04-05 08:47

Actually, They will probably implement a whole new coding system. This is going to be a way to stop homebrew obviously. They want you to upgrade.

Also, the only thing I find wrong with those images is they don't show the game size. Why wouldn't they tell you that kind of information?

# fake — Guest 2006-04-05 09:00

This is a known fake btw..

# We'll all have a 5-finger discount. — Guest 2006-04-05 09:03

IT DOESN'T MATTER THAT SOMEONE HAS TO PAY FOR IT.

People will simply learn to download them from each other off the internet, in time. I forsee the day when all PSOne Emulator games are free, unless Sony finds a way to code them to be visually unavailable when you connect your PSP to your computer.

# $15 — ahnp 2006-04-05 09:15

thats what about £8, i wouldnt mind too much if they give us all 4 gig sticks with it. 4 disks are gonna be quite big

# Short memories eh? — Guest 2006-04-05 09:20

If any of you actully take the time to think back to the original news about the PSone Emulator to be posted, you will remember the part that said something alon the lines of "Which will be able to play modified versions of PSone Titles".

The "modified" part more than likely refers to things like remapping the button layouts and the like to over-come the lack of the additional shoulder buttons. It wouldnt suprise me if soundtracks are scaled down in order to save space too.

Although I would like to see some of them games, especially Gran Turismo with the strange absence of GT Mobile, I also agree that the price is a bit steep. I mean you can get the games for about £5 in the bargain bin at you local games/music stores so why would we want to pay more than that, especially seeing as their old games anyways.

# Fake — Guest 2006-04-05 09:29

X [] O /\ only 1 Analog stick, dualpad controls (left, right, up, down), and only L and R, how are you going to play GRAND TURISMO??????

# erm...... — Guest 2006-04-05 09:56

..... most of these games require a second analog stick..... so unless they modified Every single game to work with one analog stick 0_0...

# I think they are fake — Guest 2006-04-05 09:57

Well now I say that this if fake for a number of reasons:

1. PSone emulator is coming WAAY after Flash support

2. "Downloads" on left side is in too plain of a font

3. If you have noticed, not ONCE in the PSP firmware does it use the word Wi-Fi, like how it was used in the pics. PSP always says "WLAN" instead of "Wi-Fi". Try connecting to the internet without the switch on and it gives you a WLAN error.

Well, why doesn't someone EXIF these to see if they are real?

# issues with ps1 emu — comedy 2006-04-05 10:11

firstly, they have to allow us to store these ps1 games on a pc or ps3.

secondly, everybody who heard that gdc statement assumed it meant a ps1 emulator... so i think it's a safe bet.

thirdly, $15 isn't that bad, but i reckon they'll have a graded pricing system, gran turismo, mgs, ff7 etc will probs be premium titles, but others may have a lower price point.

fourthly, anyone who thinks this isn't just going to be a part of a firmware is sorely mistaken

fifthly, this opening avenues to homebrew is probably wrong as they managed to implement a bunch of new thingies into higher firmwares than 1.5 but simultaneously cut down the amount of homebrew oppurtunities.

sixthly, i think it's a matter of waiting for a real sony announcement for true details

seventhly, stop posting in all caps. it's for losers and you don't want to say 'i'm a loser' the moment you want to make a point.

They're fake because the background is in the exact same position on both blue screenshots, it should be moving around if they were truly taken at seperate times, he took one shot and added the text, and after he did the same for the next, he just changed the brightness a bit.

# Morons — Guest 2006-04-05 11:51

# Possible Guess for This Info — Guest 2006-04-05 15:52

May not be fake. Sony did say that they were trying to create a PS1 emulator for the 3.0 firmware. Could be just a prototype that was leaked. If it is fake, then, well, I guess there goes my theory.

# de de deeee — Guest 2006-04-05 15:56

hey retards this ***** is real if you payed attention to what sony is saying about the new firmware. Hell the pics may be fake for all i care but the ps1 emu isnt.

# ............... — Guest 2006-04-05 16:40

"My friend who is a designer at sony gave me these pics, he said that this is what the psone emulator for psp will look like. he said that the games will be downloaded by a program shown in the screenshots and will be played under "game". I think this is true because he showed them to me from his camera which doesn't show ANY edited images."

that means your friends is a designer for sony of japan? sure...and I know Bill gates......FAKE.

There is no space between the alphabet select and the title; I dont think they would use a "more info" label, a one-word is more likely sony (information?), the update arrows should not be used for expressing download, and lastly, why using the PS logo in the right-bottom corner? where the loading thingy appears.

looks awful fake.

# SNAKE — Guest 2006-04-06 12:01

Don't know if this is fake or not, but Sony IS working on a way to get the PSOne games working on the PSP. Take anything with a grain of salt until you see something official from Sony themeselves. There could be a price for the games, or they could be free. People just need to wait and see.

# There's a reason I avoid this site — Kichigai 2006-04-08 14:43

It's things like half the comments listed on this page that make me feel like Slashdot is the only place I should trust for my gaming news. Out of 183 comments (this would be about 184) only, perhaps, a dozen have any real value. The rest are repeats (Yes, I know about the wavy-line error. I read that 60 comments above yours...), people complaining about the price (Wow, $15. Might as well ask for my first born while they're at it), people calling those people Anti-Sony because they don't want to pay $15 (Sony made these games, so they can price it at whatever you want, and you'll damn well like it!), people calling each other n00bs (Oh, aren't you special! You figured out how to evade the swear filter!), "FAKE!!" posts (Well, I wasn't convinced it was fake reading the first 63 times you C/Ped it in your message, but the 64th convinced me).

So, here's what I think should be done: everyone should just shut up. The image is proven fake, so we should stop arguing over the firmware version, pricing, storage on the memory stick, control translation, how you could fake something like this (and how you could do it better, too), and how YOU discovered it was fake (even though someone else already did that a few hours ago).

# Mixed thoughts — Guest 2006-04-09 03:03

im 100% sure these pictures are fake, as far as im concerned. it doesnt even look like something sony would have developed. they would have done a much better job. also someone up there pointed out the wavy lines are in the EXACT same place.

therefore.. there fake.

but im pretty sure sony wont make us pay $15 for a ps1 game. especially considering most ps1 games you can get used now for like 5 bucks.

if sony does though.. im disowning them

# sony is going crazy — Guest 2006-04-09 05:29

thats tooo much 15 dollers for a psone game i would only pay 5 or 6

# Looking ahead — Guest 2006-04-09 13:53

after reading all 189 posts, i can clearly see that the only other person to do so was the 184 guy (well done, it did take a lot of patience). why do you need to say what 60-70 people have told everyone already?

so what i say is... look forward to the actual emu for games like ff6,7,8,9, mgs, moh, driver, syphon filter, etc... and stop whining like a bunch of three year olds!

and if you don't want to upgrade from your precious 1.5fw - don't, no one else is going to try to stop you (or give a damn either way).

it has to be fake, most of the ps1 games were about 700mb and the most storage for a psp is 4 gig. so 4000/700=5.something. so you would only see about 6 games on that emulator, not 13.

# Can't Wait For PSone Emulator:D — KillCruZeR 2006-04-15 21:42

@ 195

It are the games you 'can' download, not the games that are on the memorystick

# do — Guest 2006-04-16 13:43

how do u get internet on yo psp at home

# crack it — Guest 2006-04-17 00:16

listen why paying for the games for the ps1 emulation if there are good hackers they hack the emulation and you can play youre backups from your memorystick and if they can hack that mayby the can make asnes emulation or other emulation or play psp backups from youre Mstick

# idiots — Guest 2006-04-17 09:31

sony is rebuilding the firmware from the ground up they arent going to be fooled as easily as before

# I like the idea — dalethedino 2006-04-17 17:34

I live in Australia so this will give me a chance to buy and play quality games like xenogears and chrono cross, and I have very fond memories of Legend of Dragoon, despite never finishing it.

I think since so many people are worried about the size of ps1 isos they should consider the screen resolution of the psp, with gameplay videos compressed to that ratio they can be much smaller

and also no one ever seems to take into account that the majority of developers did not use all of the 700MB available to them, for example each disc of ff7 is about 500MB

lol, whos getting the feeling that noones gonna pay for these downloads?

lol. the homebrew community is trying to stop ISO downloading, as well as sony

then sony release a ps1 emulator

jeez

stupid japanese f00ls

# why? sony, disappointed — Guest 2006-04-20 02:09

hmmm... i dunno why sony is making a PSone emulator

sure its a nice idea... but wouldnt it be more profitable to make a umd with about 5 ps1 games on them, instead of having to download them. it seems to me that its very biased on the people who cant access the internet via their psp

i mean, i wouldnt have a problem

but my friend cant access wifi anywhere near him

shame on you sony

shame on you

peace out yall

# game file size — Guest 2006-04-30 13:52

when you download them would they come compressed to save space or would they be the 100s of megabytes as if you copied them straight from the playstation disk.

ha! dude, file size dont show 4 rss dwnlds and if they DO make the isos hidden, its soooo ez to get them!!! ive already done sthigng like that b4. (written ona psp) --kiteyeniah--

# hey! — Guest 2006-05-04 07:22

hey i just wanna know can anyone here confirm or unconfirm if there is or isnt going to be a psone emulator? i really dont know what to believe cos i here different stuff on different websites. i agree this screenshot looks fake and a bit too low budget for sony, and in my opinion the screenshot is a fake made by some loser with too much time on his hands. now can anyone help me please????????????

# Sony Approved emu? — Guest 2006-05-09 18:39

I doubt it. Though it might be wise to combat homebrew emu with official emu, the fact still remains that if people can get it cheaper, faster, and more functional, they will. If Sony actually put out a PS1 emulator, I'm willing to bet it would come with incredibly restrictive DRM, meaning the minute you tried to share with friends or store a backup, the game would be rendered unplayable. Another thorny issue would have to do with the difference in controls, considering the PSP has two fewer shoulder buttons, and one fewer analog sticks, not to mention the complete absence of the R3 and L3 buttons. Although it isn't inconcievable that game code could be rewritten for the new control architecture.

I figure that even if Sony did bring out an update that featured an emulator, the reasoning would merely be to entice homebr(users) to upgrade their system firmware, thus locking out the unofficial software. The functionality would be limited at best, and the support would quickly dry up as the hardware would (inevitably) be supercede3d by the PSP2.

# Sony Shows It Off — Guest 2006-05-17 13:35

and at E3 sony shows off infact the psone emulation is real and working, one more thing for the scene to crack, although i would pay the $15 for certain games (SoTN,FFVII)

# I dont get it? — Guest 2006-05-19 18:42

Well... QJ says they can't verify if these are real. I just may not understand, but theres a QJ logo on the 2 other pics in the background.

# Pros/Cons — Guest 2006-05-26 23:12

The truth to this is hard to decide.

- This will open a whole new backdoor. If the emulation is ACTUALLY emulation, L2 and R2 will be emulated, not recoded. And memory will be protected. Otherwize, a homebew PSx rom can rip a new hole.

- Compressed or not, a standard CD holds 600MB, Half of the PSP-Wielding people don't have 1GB sticks. With compression, loading times will be WORSE than PSx. Were talking constant library loading, unencrypt, library unload. 3 games will probably take 1.5 GB.

- The PSP can't handle emulation as well as you think. While it tries, it cannot fully emulate a SNES rom wtihout lag, even at 333Mhz, 33 Mhz over a PS2. I have even had lag on a NES game.

- As mentioned, Nintendo is the only company with a large amount of games creaded BY nintendo, as where sony and microsoft rely on 3rd party developers. Chances are they'll want money from sony to allow them to redistribute. Plus, that's a lot of contracts for 15$ a game, it's practically a remake.

# There on pot — Guest 2006-06-06 20:48

well its an emulator 15 bucks is crazy ill buy a psx game for 1 to 10 dollars at eb games or at a pawn shop or a new one which comes with three games. lolz :)

# PSone Emulator — Guest 2006-07-01 14:01

Hate to burst your bubble but those pics are true PSP downloadin program price and all games will be joystick compat and you will have all the same features as a umd game and i wouldnt complain about the price could you ever plsy your old game againts people online? well I for one Thanks sony for developing the PSone emulator for the PSP and think why are you complaining if it wasn't for sony you wouldnt even have tha amazing system in your hand bye peace out

# PSone Emulator — Guest 2006-07-01 14:10

Oh yeah and it works of eboot tec so chance that iso running on Sony Emu is not going to happen can the hackers make a update for the psp no cuse you need is sony signiture and i dont anyone has that lying around so if you want the PSone Emulator and homebrews Get the New Bios replace so you can dual boot your firmware

# there is a ps1 emulator for psp..... — Guest 2006-07-23 12:13
