While Sony could spend their efforts in improving these features in firmware updates (we wouldn't mind), it seems like Sony should refocus their time on the main thing PSP is meant to be used for: games. It shouldn't be surprising PSP has lost its luster as a media player there are certainly much better music and video players out there. 'Slightly more than one third of PSP owners are watching movies (35 percent) and listening to music (33 percent) on their device.' That's a large percentage, but it's certainly far from the majority. well, for games? Although Sony constantly touts PSP's other features, they're still not used by a majority of PSP owners.

Who would've thunk that a portable gaming device would be used. 'Gameplay is the feature used by most (84 percent) on the PlayStation Portable.' But, what feature do PSP owners take the most advantage of? According to NPD Group (via Edge), the answer should be pretty obvious: games.

The full list of coresĬredits for the leading image: Rustom Capinpuyan.The PSP can do a lot of things - just look at the XMB. LowRes NX, an emulator for a fantasy console, has no homebrew equivalents. Native alternatives include eKaraoke, Filer, PSP LyricShow Player, PSPLyrics.

MAME 2003 and MAME 2003 Plus are sadly no better than any of the native MAME emulators for PSP, none of which shine for their quality. Lutro is a Lua interpreter, but it doesn’t seem compatible with any of the myriads of Lua scripts that were created by the PSP homebrew scene. The PSP homebrew scene offers GameMusicGear, GameMusicEmu, SexyPSF and countless other such apps. 2048 and Bomberman both have solid homebrew recreations.Ī note about 2048 here: the PSP2048 commonly shared on homebrew sites, and credited to one GhostRespawn, was actually taken from Anderain Lovelace’s GitHub repo - who is the real author of that version. Wolfenstein, Doom and Cave Story were ported to PSP ages ago. Game enginesįive game engines, for 2048, Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Cave Story, Bomberman. This is the single largest group, and includes 10 home computers: ZX-81, BK-0010, MSX, Amstrad CPC, Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, PC-88, PC-98, Thomson MO/TO, Sharp X1.Įxcept for the BK-0010 and Sharp X1, all are emulated natively on PSP. The PSP can do better - here’s the same game running in the native Snes9x TYL emulator, for comparison: The game barely hits 30 FPS with this core: Emulation never quite reaches full speed: Umihara Kawase isn’t a particularly demanding game, but snes9x 2005 doesn’t seem to realize that. The SNES cores are more representative of the RetroArch experience though. The same game with the Picodrive core on RetroArch 1.9.7 - 22 FPS: Virtua Fighter on Picodrive 1.92.3 - 7 FPS: The Picodrive core on RetroArch can emulate the 32X pretty well - at least when compared to Robson Alcantara’s Picodrive fork, last updated in 2018.

7 consoles from other manufacturers: NeoGeo Pocket, Fairchild Channel F, Mattel Intellivision, Uzebox, Odyssey 2, ColecoVision, PC Engine.įairchild Channel F and Uzebox do not have native PSP emulators everything else does.

The Megadrive emulator supports the various add-ons like Sega CD and 32X. The Master System emulators also run Game Gear games (since they had a common architecture). Or you can select 'MP4' and set the 'Encoder' as 'H264', which is compatible with PSP. From the output format, select 'Video' and find 'MPEG'. So in this step, you will need to select either of these format.

3 Sega consoles: SG-1000, Master System, Megadrive. PSP supports video formats like MPEG-4 and H.264.

3 Atari consoles: Atari 800, Atari Lynx, Atari 7800.

5 Nintendo consoles: NES, SNES, Game Boy, GameBoy Advance, Game & Watch.

RetroArch PSP also doesn’t implement an exception handler, so once the system is out of memory, it will simply freeze. If you are not, expect even fewer of the cores to actually work.

The practice was discontinued pretty much immediately, and all later versions of RetroArch simply assume you are running a PSP Slim. The first version of RetroArch able to run on PSP (1.0.0.3) had separate builds for the Slim and Fat models. While the list of cores included change from release to release (or even day to day, for nightly builds), this is an overview of what you can expect as of August 2021. Not all of them are emulators, and it’s not obvious what a lot of them are even for. If you just downloaded RetroArch 1.9.7 for PSP, you will find 48 files inside the cores folder.
