If you're one of those brave souls who wish to risk their PlayStation Portables all for the love of installing a second analogue stick on to your handheld, then you might be interested to know that the final design of AcidMods' Razor X PCB (printed circuit board) has recently been rolled out and is now available to PSP modders everywhere.

The new Razor X board will allow the easier installation of a second analog stick on your PSP. It was also mentioned that the board should work on a PSP Slim & Lite unit, although the smaller contact points on the model will make installing the board considerably more difficult.

L0rdNiC0, administrator of the AcidMods forums, mentioned that he plans on writing a full tutorial on how to install the Razor X on the PSP phat soon. He also mentioned that the AcidMods team will be working on an alternative method on how to install the board on the PSP Slim once they are able to piece something together.

The Razor X won't be a cheap purchase, though. The board is currently priced at approximately US$ 25, reflecting the expensive production cost of the new Razor X model. Interested modders can avail of the board through a link found on the source link we've provided below.

you will be able to use it in first person shooters and the like to aim, etc. There as a demo video of te dual analog mod almost 1 year ago, if I am remembering correctly. (so no, this is not the first time dual analog mod has been done).

this requires you to solder onto your X[]/\O/powerswitch board so like when you move the analog down, it'll be just like pressing the X button. move it to the left and it'll be like your pressing the [] button, etc.

hopefully we can get a prx work for PS1 games to do dual shock or use analog stick on left as L1 and L2, then the other one L2 and R2.



So I don't have to use my right hand while switching weapons on MGS
