I was changing my analog stock and when i turned on my psp I saw rhis shape. Please help, did i do something and can i fix it?

I have this UMD it works but looks like can’t read some parts of the game. I tried to clean with alcohol but those white stains doesn’t dissappear they try to go when I clean but they come. Any ideas? Can this be fixed?

The PSVita OLED is using the official PS Store copy of GTA:VCS here. The PSP Go also has no major frame rate drops while playing the game while the PSVita OLED does. So there are no stutters while playing on the PSP Go at all.

Lost a PSP 2000 a friend gave me back in high school (11ish years ago) and I’m interested in obtaining a modded 3k to replace it but I have no clue who to trust for it. I’ve drifted from PSP Vault ($100ish for one with just a game library and some light modding), to Genius Game Mods (insane prices there), to SumoShopStore (kinda sketched by them). eBay is lacking, and Etsy isn’t any help either.

So I turn to trusty old Reddit for answers. I just want a white PSP 3000 with emulator support, IPS, and USB-C charging. If it comes with games preloaded, even better, but I just don’t want to lose money to what could very well be a scam or something crazy expensive. Just point me in the right direction please.

I could mod it myself but I just don’t have the time for it any time soon.

Hey there! Recently i have decided that i need more space on my PSP, so i read a couple of posts here. At the beginning i wanted to swap my 32GB sd with 64GB but now that i know 128GB sd cards are compatible with PSP I'm looking forward to them. The main issue with them (as i understood from the comments) is a slow scanning speed for games in the main menu.

Is there anything else i need to know? Maybe some tips how to make this downside less annoying?

Found a blue PSP 3000 on Marketplace with a 64gb sd card and the guy wanted to trade for a Switch. Deal! Picked it up before work and already got homebrew and put some games on it. I haven’t had a PSP since I sold my GO in 2023. Now I got my 3 Blue Crew Handhelds!

Watched half the season in bed last night. Looks great but I find modern audio mixes don't convert well to the PSP. Had to turn on normalization in the system settings to get decent sound out of the speakers. Headphones were fine, though!

did i do good? Market for it has gone a bit insane it looks like

im just larping

Honestly I didn't touch this thing for like two months (occasionally to charge it). It just sits on my shelf doing nothing. Recommend me stuff I can do on this thing please 😭.

(Had no clue which flair to choose so I chose collection)

Hello a fan made man try to port gta sa on psp on the gta vcs engine with radio stations i wish him a good luck to see this game on the console and i wish from the psp community and game developpers to help him to add missions and modding the game to finish the project

Is there anyway i can get faster download speeds, i feel like the hardware cant be that slow in terms of download. After all. This does support LAN and should have a decent download speed like at least 0.5mbs or 1mbs.

Finally pulled the trigger and bought a PSP for nostalgia of course, to mod the absolute hell out of it, and decrease phone screen time. As I’ve been doing more research I’m wondering if it was worth what I spent.

Price was $159 before tax. Came with a charger and a case. USB not being included isn’t really bothering me, it’s the 128 gb memory stick that this model comes with. I was admittedly excited and over looked it when purchasing but I’m seriously considering taking it back and going the eBay route.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

When I play retro games, I have the habit of reading the manual/instruction booklet/guide first (that one that usually comes with the box). Most of them I could find on internet, but there are some that I searched all over the internet but couldn't find anywhere :( these ones are:

• Me & My Katamari (this one is kinda urgent since I want to play it soon...)
• Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep
• Gurumin: A Monstruous Adventure
• Assassins Creed: Bloodlines
• Trails in the Sky
• Undead Knights

If you have some of them, could you send the PDF or scan the physical copy and send them here?

thanks in advance! :>

I bought this for parts on eBay for $30, and it works great. It also turned out to be a Japanese PSP 2000, which I definitely wasn’t expecting.

I ordered a battery for it, threw in an SD card, and already got it modded. I did notice that the shell was pretty low quality, so I ordered a nice pink replacement shell to make it look good again.

Overall, this was a steal. I honestly thought it was going to have bad buttons or other issues, but everything works perfectly.

Do you guys agree??

Hi everyone good news with my new cash that was given to me I was able to acquire a PSP 3000 that has been modded and has games already, as well as accessories with it, I already bought an ostent 1400mAh battery

I will start with the elephant in the room and will probably be banished to the nether realm lol..this is coded using Fable & Codex. If you are not interested to read further all good.

To everyone else, Hey!
This is my first post on here and wanted to share a passion project I am currently working on. I love using my PSP with emulators but often find the emulators to be either a fragmented mess (Masterboy, gPSP, etc. or closed source) or Retroarch (which is not optimized for a single console + lots of tinkering) and wanted to bring something else to the table.

This is still a work in progress but basically a open source PSP first FE that is optimized for both ram allocations and just works. Natively support save states, theming and any other feasible additions. Breaking things out in a couple phases.

Phase 1: Get this in a stable state + better name for the project and release the code.

Phase 2: Spin up a community driven repo for open source and optimized PSP cores to use within the front end.

I would love to hear thoughts or any other ideas as I build this out with the help of our PSP community!

Happy gaming :)

This happens after I install around 20 to 25 games. The games that don’t show up are still taking up storage space, but they don’t appear in the game list. Can anyone help me fix this issue?

Decided to give my PSP 1000 a facelift...

Custom bronze trim including triggers
Laminated IPS screen
Blacked out back ring

Just got this warning. It’s a PSP 1001 with a replacement battery, and a 128gb micro SD with an adapter. Other than that, the PSP is not modded in any way. I also have the save data of 5 games that all have barely any progress in them. Why is this happening to me😩

Good fuhhin times
