Question about emulating on the PSP

Post by evil_ash_xero »

I'm too lazy to look all over the net, so I thought i'd ask here.

I want to be able to emulate MAME, Genesis, and Super NES games on one system that is able to handle the speed properly. I have heard that the Xbox can't handle some games like Guwange without glitches because of limited RAM.

If I get a PSP, would I have to chip it to put these emulators on it? Also, I know that the new ones can hook up into your TV. Would this display these games at their proper size without any glitches of any kind?

Thanks.

no....if you are interested in emus on a PSP i suggest getting a fat PSP.....

and you will need to mod it to run emus....and even on a fat PSP not everything runs perfect....most of the CPS1 and CPS2 stuff runs fine......some of the neo geo stuff runs a little slow.....genesis and snes are ok.....have to fiddle with the settings on some games...

mame is still shit on PSP...very little working games and mostly older ones....like early to mid 80's games mostly

Check this site... (don't know the name) -- Google "PSP News" and it's the first thing that comes up. Huge resource for PSP emulation and the forums there are where I've done most of my research. You should do it-- not just for TV purposes, but because it's rad. Most stuff, CPS 2 down to Sega Genesis, works great on the small screen- often with 1 or 2 un-noticeable frame skip settings, or with the vsync off (which wouldn't look so hot on a TV).
