Official PSOne emulator for PSP announced


 

The President of Sony Computer entertainment, Ken Kutaragi, has recently announced that an official PSOne emulator will be released for Sony’s great portable console and users will be able to acquire them legally through an online platform of some sort. However, there is yet no information on whether you will be able to pass your PS1 games directly to PSP.

With this measure (if it’s not too late), the PSP could very well enter a turning point and expand it’s game library by the thousands. But, you know what the best thing about this is folks?

*feels a tear running down his face*

I’ll be able to play Final Fantasy VII wherever I want… thank you Sony… *snif*

    Oh man! Fucking great new! MGS, FF7+8+9 on PSP.. WOW! I’ve heard somewhere that they’re gonna charge around 15 dolla’s per download. Still quite a bit of money, but at least it’s cheaper then UMDS!

  13. jade says:

  14. Matt says:

  15. abcrt123 says:

    forget 7
    ff8 is the best. can’t wait.
    why do people like 7 more than 8?
    8 kicks 7

  16. BLAiZE9000 says:

    i’m with NEwschool, Bushido Blade kicks!!! FF7 also kicks too! But Busido Blade will slice up Cloud like tomato. Ahhh, the FF7 days, like they were yesturday. FF7 Advent Children rocks by the way, you should get it for PSP, very cool!!! Much better than the First FF7 flick.

    I love my PSP :)

  17. Random_idiot says:

    i don’t care wether u say 7 is better than 8 or vice versa but being able to play final fantasy’s, mgs and castlevania on my PSP yes get in sony should get the gold award for console design and everything

  18. FL4WL35S says:

    Cant wait just want to play Castlevania Symphony of the Night aka Best Game Ever.

  19. Random_idiot says:

    Damn right

  20. mcclord says:

    I can’t help but wonder why, ‘xsa’, you still seriously care about homebrewing in the light of this news. The only ‘mega benefit’ is old console emulation, but surely this will be defeated by a, presumably flawless, PS emulator(a console that has games that are at least comparable to any previous release). I suppose you will not be able to read ebooks, but how long ’til they just bung one of those in a system update.

  21. JOSEPH GERALD says:

    hell ya so i could play final fantisy 7 on my (+.[___]::) thats tight when will it be coming out????

  40. df says:

    you cant change the controller port you are using. for example in mgs, you have to change to controller port 2 to beat psycho mantis. its impossible to do this with this emulator.

  41. momo says:

    hell i am so happy but where can we find these games or emulaters and how do we use them???

  42. jay says:

    does any 1 no how or if the official emulator could be torrented

  43. Cyraphin197 says:

    did L2 and R2 have functionality in FF7 8 or 9? only thing i can remember was Squall’s trigger for his limit break might have been R2, its been too long, therefore: SONY NEEDS TO GET FF7, FF8, and FF9 on our PSP’s NOWWW!!!

  44. Kakar0t says:

    You are all idiots.
    Hello? Anyone heard of dark alex????
    Get custom firmware and popstation and put all your ps1 games on your memory card. And, with the addition of 4.01 M22 cfw, you can customise the controller.

    Wake up!!

  45. Kakar0t says:

    Sorry, that should say M33
