Location free player plus PSP equals Wii on a tiny tiny screen

While we ourselves aren't quite sure how useful this ultimately is, we have to admit that a number of us here at QJ found it cool anyways. QJ reader nano alerts us to this YouTube video where YouTube user obiwan222222 claims been able to play the Wii on his PSP using Location Free support.

Observe:

Yes, we can hear it now. Some of you folks are probably thinking fake already. Well, given that he just seems to be using his PSP as a monitor, and isn't really doing anything more complicated than that, we'll leave the debunking to you folks.

Anyway, on the chance that this isn't fake, the only handy application that comes to mind is that this might serve as a great solution if in case your Wiimote strap just snapped, and you're in desperate need of a screen.

25% of voters think this story ROCKS!

QJ, you need to just post ONE tutorial on what the Location free player does and how it works. We don't need an article every time someone plays a different system through the LFP. The thing is several hundred dollars in itself, and for that price, you might as well just go by the Wii itself (that is if you can even find it). Seriously though, the location free player can do this with movies, games, music, etc...and this isn't really showing anything new to what you have shown before..

that 5 year old kid should STFU

# Please. — Guest 2007-03-14 16:13

For one, this is the same little *****got that faked the n64 I believe. It's pretty pathetic, if you ask me. Look, you can see his reflection in the screen, he's a 12 year old kid. He's just begging for attention and you're giving him what he wants. Anybody can use LocationFree player, but he doesn't even have the technical skills to set up PiMP Streamer.

And for those thinking he's emulating the Wii on the PSP, he's not, at most what he could be faking is Wii control support by pointing it at the screen, and as you can see, he isn't. And if he was, what would be the point? Who would want to point at a small little screen and have to keep that huge ugly box (which is just an over-sized IR bar) on top of the PSP.

Turn your heads, and don't look back. This one's a failure.

# ... — Guest 2007-03-14 16:14

Gamecube, not n64, sorry.

# g4y — Guest 2007-03-14 16:21

That kid hasn't hit puberty yet.

This is a dumb post.

Anyone can use it.

Anything can be streamed.

Why would you stream anything to the PSP?

The screen is way to small for it.

Just a waste of time.

# XD — Guest 2007-03-14 16:28

FAKE

# LIKE ZOMG — soopergooman 2007-03-14 16:48

People it's very simple, you can hook up a ps2 or ps3 or blue ray player to a location free player and use it to play games anywhere in the world! it's to bad that Sony didn't include that feature in the ps3 as originally specified. This kid is cool, he figured out a simple hardware way of being able to play with his Wii after his bedtime, I assume. Good job!

# stupid — Guest 2007-03-14 17:04

HAHAHHA this kid is proving what we already knew we could do, but hes taking credit for it... lets make his puberty a lot less enjoyable if you know what i mean

# wooo — Guest 2007-03-14 17:09

anywhere in the world as long as you have a magic super wireless controller that works on the power of wishes and dreams. the psp is not capable of controlling anything other than the presentation of the video output. he needed to use a wii controller. bluetooth only reaches about 30 ft, and the wireless ps2 controllers only work about 15 or so on RF. this is completely useless.

# whoo hoo — Guest 2007-03-14 17:33

36th!!!!!

# ROCK ON — Guest 2007-03-14 17:50

whooooooooooooo oooot, thats awsome brosif

# no — soopergooman 2007-03-14 17:52

omg go read the location free support page, it tells you all about it there. do you think I'm farting this out my ass? god people who never read.

Also this is not a tiny screen the one used for the wii in this link is 1.5 inch

# Amazing — Guest 2007-03-14 18:28

This is amazing....But it doesnt make sense......Well technologically yes....but in terms of use...no.

You dont play wii while your taking the bus to work.

you play the psp while you take the bus to work.

If you can afford a wii...the chances are...you probably can afford a TV.

and if you already have a wii....then you probably have a TV already.

# HAHAHA — Guest 2007-03-14 18:47

this is so stupid, it's not practical to start off with, a 4 year old could of came up with this, as proof by the voice in the video, and it has a delay, who the ***** would do this, everything would happen seconds after you actually did it

# delay — jsharrad 2007-03-14 19:13

Everyone seems to be forgetting that theres a 6 second delay between anything he does and the actual output on the psp screen, so yeah, it's real useful heh.

# lol — Guest 2007-03-14 19:20

yeah can this *****ing little ***** even speak english? seriously, i could not understand a single work he/she said. 16? more like testosterone defficiency

# Yeah.. — Guest 2007-03-14 20:49

He's simply showing that it can be done...just like how that other dude showed he could run GameCube off of the PSP screen.

Pointless, yes. But just proves it can be done. Kinda like how you can run Windows 98 on the PSP.

Slow as friggin' hell, but shows it can be done.

# Yeah.. — Guest 2007-03-14 20:51

# dfssfdfsd — Guest 2007-03-14 21:04

QJ.net is getting *****ing lame posting bull***** thats dosnt make a crock pot of *****!

# daa dee doo daa *****ity smonk — Guest 2007-03-14 21:11

the thing that sucks is the lag' its not even worth it or i woulda found a way to play my ps2 on my psp in the car

sucks'' i need some one to import my ps2 saves to my ps3

# not 12.. or 13 — Guest 2007-03-14 21:25

he said he was 16 in the video.. (with a high pitched voice) haha

# eurgh — Guest 2007-03-14 21:27

duuude hes only 16

you shouldnt be having those kinds of thoughts about a 16 yr old

SICKO

# http://www.freewebs.com/pspfreefiles — Guest 2007-03-14 21:36

this is good as i think that the people will like the way it does the thing that it does

# =( — Silver-Tiger 2007-03-14 22:01

It's the same *****ing dude who makes the the *FAKE* gamecube emu.........

It's works over Pimpstreamer.....

Dude, shut the ***** up!

Anyway, how much money have the boy?

He has a PC, a GameCube, a Wii, a PSP.....

He's surely a spoiled, rich boy who wants to get friends

# dumb — Guest 2007-03-14 22:34

I can stream any game with LF, only you'll have a delay from 5 seconds... so useless, besides other people watching you play from up close on the psp (a few seconds later)

# nice try — xche78x 2007-03-14 23:09

it will wow most people but....

no not me. you can plug any video device to that 200 dollar, even ps2/ps3 dvd or even the almighty nes then transmit the video data to the psp.

there's even some homebrews that can do this if you have a wifi router and a pc with video in capabilities.

anyways nice show off.

# PSP is not a Wii remote w/LocationFree — Guest 2007-03-15 01:20

I own a LocationFree. I have done the same thing with Gamecube and I've also done it with my PS2. You don't use the PSP as a remote. All it becomes is a portable TV. What you can do to fool someone is mash keys while you are playing the video. If you directly output from a PS2 or whatever, then there is at least a 5 second delay to get to the PSP. So, it's harder to actually play the device that is outputting. What I normally do (to fool friends,) is output the console to a DVD-R and record the session. Then I rip this to MP4 content. I play it on my PSP and lock the keys. Then, while showing it (or letting people see it,) I pretend to press the keys. That makes people think I am emulating the console on the PSP. LOL It's harder to actually play the unit while using LocationFree because of the lag though.

# wtf — Guest 2007-03-15 02:36

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHA

This is the same kid that made the gamecube video!

http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=obiwan222222

See for yourself.

# hahaha — Guest 2007-03-15 02:44

Omfg, "and no, im not 12, 13 or 14. I'm 16 and just have a high pitch voice" :D. Well, he made me laugh :').

# its nice — Guest 2007-03-15 03:29

im only saying its nice cuz now in days when your grounded from tv you can't play your games i think its nice to be able to play that stuff on the screen i find it to be neat.

# explanation — Guest 2007-03-15 03:58

retarded,

The location free player has a 30 second lag behind the live stream and it would be completely worthless to hook it up to a wii. WOW YOU CAN DO IT WITH ANY VIDEO FEED! PS2, N64, WII, PS3, ANY FRICKEN CONSOLE. NO accomplishment at all. a retard could easily have hooked it up.

# omg... — Guest 2007-03-15 05:31

His voice sounds like someone with no social skills, playing games 24/7... he's 16, so what's wrong with it?

Other than that.. kinda neat that you can play Wii on the PSP =]

# thats great — Guest 2007-03-15 06:55

i can play the wii on my camera phone too

i just have to sit infront of the tv with the camera phone showing me the TV through the camera

retarded, who the hell wants to play on such a small screen

a 16 year old who hasn't hit puberty is kinda weird

prolly thought this up to play in his room while hes grounded

# rofl — Guest 2007-03-15 07:45

hahahahhaha I had a deeper voice than you when I was 8

# ME — obiwan22 2007-03-15 08:28

I do have a life and I'm not fat I play sports and do not play psp 24/7. So me,the 16 year old is smarter than everyone here cause nobody thought of that earlier. If you have you would submit it and get popular too!

# ... — Guest 2007-03-15 09:13

Wow, if this makes front page news, then anything can.

Anyway, why write an article about hooking up the wii to a location free player and it being displayed on the psp, when I can use my original GBA as the monitor and hook my wii up to my GBA? (yes, i have done it before, horrible quality/ =P

# Cant REALLY be done — Guest 2007-03-15 11:10

Sorry folks, i own a PSP and LocationFree, and a pocket pc for that matter with locationfree (that i watch tv on as i drive), and this can not TRULEY be done. Reason being, there is about 3 second delay (+-1.5 seconds) from the internet connection. So........there is NO way he can be looking at his PSP screen playing his wii at real time controlls and watching it 3 seconds later

FAKE AS *****

# lol.. — Guest 2007-03-15 11:29

lol.. hes 16 dam he hasnt gone trhough puberty yet..

im 14 and my voice is deeper than that *****,,,

# pssh — Guest 2007-03-15 12:08

Its the same person.

The dude who did gamecube is the same person who did this wii video.

check it out on our forums somewhere -->

pspwxp.co.nr

# LOL — Guest 2007-03-15 13:25

what a n3rd.

# wagon — Guest 2007-03-15 13:25

you should edit your voice to make it DEEPER!

# I Would.... — Guest 2007-03-15 15:15

I would use my Location Free Player to display Halo 2 (or Halo 3 when it comes out) on my PSP's screen. I have wireless Xbox 360 remotes so I could plkay in my rooom where i don't have a T.V.

# Guys, STFU and give him credit!! — Guest 2007-03-15 16:41

To all of you losers who immediatley screamed that you could do this: Well why didn`t you? You didn`t. Obiwan22 did. So stfu. Seriously, so what if he has a high pitched voice? I still find this very impressive, even if "anyone could do it". Obiwan22, I`d give you a high-five cause no matter what anyone says, thats pretty f*ckin cool! (Even if I couldn`t make much use out of it..)

# um... — Guest 2007-03-17 22:55

I agree with all of your point except for the first one. Why should this kid be shunned for not hitting puberty? Sure it's sort of sad, but it's not his fault.

# It's really quite easy — Guest 2007-03-28 23:41

1. Buy PSP, Wii, and Location Free Player.

2. Plug the Wii's output (composite) red, white and yellow RCA cables into the back of the Location Free Player.

3. Follow Location Free instructions to hook up the PSP. (Your PSP must be 2.5 or higher.)

4. Set the PSP to be viewing the Wii output.

5. Play the Wii on your PSP screen.
