Was the PSP really as great as some people say? If so, why?
No
You had to be there to understand how good it was
>>693709701I always appreciated its simplicity. It felt more like a successor to GBA and older handhelds than the DS did.
it was good and mine still worksthe UMD drive was kind of shitty though, i had to replace the reader twice, the tray 3 times, and the plastic frames the disks came in would eventually come apart
>>693709701Yes. I could play any PSP game and GBA game on it.
>>693710173>he didn't get CFW and dumped all his UMDs the second he couldngmi
>>693709701It was great for playing games while shitting.
>>693709701The UMD reader was so noisy that booting a game felt every time like your PSP was going to self destroy. Funny times.
>>693710086Where do you get this impression? Headcannon schizo babbleThe psp was clearly an extension of the ps2 gen that tied into the vitaOne of psp's biggest devs being Falcom
>>693709701How many good games did it have that weren't just shitty ports or reworks of PS2/3 games?
Yes, it was a portable emulator machine that also had a web browser and multimedia (music, photos, movies) which was pretty fuckin' great for 2005
>>693710173My 20 year old psp is fine back there. Stop handling UMDs like an Ape and buy a case
>>693710374Way more than vita and 3ds at least
WIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRrrrrrrr~~~~~KSHHHHHHHKSHHHHHHHHHHHKSHHHH~~~~~~rrrrrrrr
I'm disappointed my 3DS has button problems and my PSP still doesn't. Who would have thought Sony had better build quality.
>>693710374Psp was better than ds it felt like an actual console with actual games and not just watered down casualized mobile tier games with forces touch screen and microphone implementation
>have old PSP>battery about to fucking explodecheck your shit anons
>>693710624The original ds model was the last nintendium console, nintendo shit has been just as shit as everything else since then
>>693709701> extensive library of conventional and weird ass games> plays PS1 games> emulation> web browser> video player> music player> extensive customizability with CFW> all in one deviceyou HAD to be there.
>>693710738>browsing porn on the psp browseryep i was there
>>693710690Ds was 3 years before the iphone so those "touchscreen phone games" were actually ds games and novel at the timeI love both ds and psp
>>6937104543DS has more just from ATLUS alone.
>>693710778I dont play fatlus games sorry not sorry
>>693709701What the FUCK did Sony mean by this?!
>>693709959basically this
>>693709701Are modded psp's from Etsy a scam?
>ds: 155 million>psp: 80 million mogged HARD
>>693709701It was the best handheld
>>693709701It still feels "futuristic" but I can't explain why
>>693711017It looks better than the Vita for some reason, that's all I know.
>>693710834kek
>>693709701No.The battery life was shit. Also, the battery on my PSP swelled up and needs to be replaced. It sounds like it's a common problem. The minidisk drive is pretty bad and makes a lot of noise, and I'm uncertain that it closes securely. You've also got load times due to the disk format, which isn't something you saw with the DS or similar handhelds.There were a few other problems, such as Sony trying to sell this thing as a portable PS2 but never putting anything close to a PS2 game on the system.On the other hand, it does have some unique games and it's library wasn't too bad, once you filter out the shovelware and the failed attempt to "port" other games onto the PSP. So it has some plus sides, just not very many and the competition was much better. It's not like it was a NGage or anything terrible like that.
it has very few games that are actually good. take kingdom hearts for example. the idea of kingdom hearts in your pocket is cool. but as a game it's shit. you're only playing it for the novelty of having a 3d action game on a handheld. most of the good ones are ports or 2d which is bizarre when your selling point is being a portable ps2.
>>693709701>Playing monster hunter with my mates>Someone forgets to bring their UMD>Have to load into an area, then pull out the disc to hand it over so they could load into the same area
>>693709701>how comes some people like $thing>how can that be?Autism overload, or 12 years old.
I thought this was going to be another zoomer but she's 31 with that kawaii uguu voice.
>>693709701It was the Nintendo Switch of the early 2000s; a handheld with enough power feasibly run contemporary console games of the era.
>>693709701Yes. even though DS was fun, the PSP was the portable powerhouse machine. Actual unreal how good the graphics were when you saw it the first time. Also It was a time Sony when had IPs at-the-ready for all the mobile ports. Lots of great psp games delivered what was near console-like experience, like the GTA games. Loved Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, and MGS Peacewalker.
>>693714543>Sony trying to sell this thing as a portable PS2 but never putting anything close to a PS2 game on the systemYes they fucking did>complaining about a 19 year old battery needing replacementGo fuck yourself
>>693709701It was fucking awesome. Very powerful handheld for the time with a lot of solid titles + when it was modded you could use it as an emulation platform to play tons of old games.Also functioned as an MP3 player and a portable movie machine. I would torrent movies and then run them through a converter so they'd be the proper resolution for the PSP so I could watch them on long car trips and that kind of thing.
>Portable ps2>Couldn't even run Persona 3 without cutting 99/9% of the polygons
>>693709701>Portable PS2>Has games>Nice side features like internet and SD far more functional than DS>Good design and button layoutIt far better than vita and rivals 3DS for playing older systems' games.
>>693715695The problem isn't that the battery died after two decades. The problem is the battery swelling up and would've caused damage to the system if I hadn't found out and taken the battery out.Battery life was always pretty shit, as well. It was around 2 hours of charging for 2-4 hours of gameplay, at best.
>>6937104543DS has Kid Icarus uprising, anon. No PSP exclusive ever got close to that absolute ludo of a game despite having stellar titles>>693710918Whoever has a PSP and a DS lives in the handheld console olympus/heaven. The handheld race didn't die; it reached its peak with those 2 systems.
>psp is somewhere in my house >cant find it for the life of me >last time I saw it the battery had expanded to the point where the back panel wouldn't clip onIs it over for me?
>>693715967For Persona 3 it was a UMD size issue. The team had to cut out a lot just to get it to fit under the PSP's UMDs 1.8GB size limit otherwise they'd had to do 2 UMDs, which they probably had to pay extra for and the only company to manage to pull that off, that I know of, was Square Enix with Final Fantasy Type-0. Persona 3 wasn't a demanding game and the team probably thought they could pull it off.
Library was decent, what made it amazing at the time was the number of emulators you could run on it, it was the first easily available portable emulator machine
>>693709701It was much bigger in Japan after Monster Hunter took off.
>>693710918how difficult is it? i've heard people talk it up, but i've also been immensely disappointed by what people consider "hard"
>>693709701monster hunter freedom unitephantasy star portable 2 dissidia duodecimfucking take me back
>>693717451>he hasn't seen the nightmare virus at postgame
>>693716620Same, I know it's somewhere in my attic but for the life of me I cannot find it. I'm half expecting to come home from work one day to find the battery has blown up my roof
>>693709701It seems great to me, so I'm thinking yes.
>>693710691How do you dispose of it?
>>693709701It was ahead of it's time. It was like a modern smartphone. It was the first "all in one" device I had as a kid that could browse the internet and have local storage, as well as hold and play my music and play video games. It was genuinely so cool at the time. This was before tablet smartphones.
>>693717936Take it out and take it to one of those battery recycle places. I've got a store named Batteries Plus which sells replacement phone batteries and so on, and they'll take the PSP battery.You probably need a local game store (not GameStop) for a replacement, although you can probably just find one for sale online.
>>693717757Your house would be on fire
>>693718384Cheers.
I like it
>>693718384all he needs is an ostent brand battery, allegedly they're the least worse aftermarket batteries
>>693709701I played so much Battlefront II on this
Mine is still rocking team-m33 cfw
>Medal of Honor: Heroes>GTA: VCS>Daxter>Wipeout Pulse>DJMax PortableFuck I miss it bros
>>693709701For me this was the Peace Walker machine
>>693709701PS2 quality games, anywhere, anytimethe dream of someone who couldn't just dismantle his ps2 everytime we went on a weekend vacation. Played Spiderman 3 so many times on this bad boy.It was also a movie player and a music player.
>Kills Mega Man>Kills Mega Man X>Kills Power Stone>Kills Ghost N GoblinsNo.
>>693726229IT wuz like a minidisc handheld and a handy combo came with it absolute Madcatz
hehehehhe
>>693709701Yeah, especially when you jailbreak it. I mean, imagine having a little device that could play PS1 games as well as emulate everything up to 16-bit consoles and GBA, as well as browse the new and play various video formats.
>>693726595I remember this joke. Strangely enough, my PSP still doesn't launch UMDs spontaneously, despite being one of the early Japanese PSP-1000 models. Damn, I've been planning to get a good LCD and battery replacement for ages now. Should really get to it, Vita with its d-pad isn't as good for PS1 games.
>>693709701Cool exclusives, ports, handheld versions of console games, all of which really did make it feel like a portable console.Ability to emulate a lot of stuff and being the goat for psx games
>>693709701>aight let me.play a quick game on the crapper>loads he main menu for 2 whole minutes>ok pick a car>loads the car models for 1 whole minute>lets gooo>3 minute loading time for the trackAwww yeah!It was a console which biggest selling point were its graphics. Hardware like that ages like shit. See also: The Ps3
I wish there was a handheld emulator machine for all the old handheld games. Maybe something like a gaming phone with attachment for buttons and sticks? No I'm not getting a fucking steam deck it has to be able to fit in a pocket for adults.
>>693729674there are MANY chink devices that do exactly what you wantif those aren't something you fancy you can just get a couple years old samsung galaxy + bluetooth controller and clip for attaching it to the phone for like 150 usd, maybe even lessdo your own research nigger
>>693709701It was only good for emulation
>>693710173who the fuck didn't hack their psp
>>693717936In the trash, not my problem.
>>693729889Gonna be honest I was hoping to get spoonfed. I'm currently playing Pokemon Blue on an emulator on my surface tablet and it's fine but I'd rather be playing it on my Vita with real buttons instead of z and x keys. Also I fucked up bringing my Vita on this trip instead of my DS even though my Vita has a dozen games I haven't finished yet and my DS only has Platinum and Soul Silver.
>>693709701it could browse the internet and that shit was incredible
>>693721908>not modding in a smartphone batteryngmi
>>693717936I threw it in the regular garbage LMFAO not my problem
>>693730330>not throwing it in the oceanIt's like you hate oceanic wildlife and want them to suffer from a lack of lithium ions.
>>693709701in that time it so good game+mp3+video player OP af
What PSP games did he play?
gayslop vs rollslop all shit
>>693711017>>693711547Soulful design
>>693716219You had to buy the better battery with more mAh
>>693730290>spending hours on research and tinkering with modding a phone battery vs. just buying the l"east worse" aftermarket battery for $10 or lessnah I'm good f.am, try being a first worlder in your next life
>>693709701I never owned one but I have played a few of its games on modern hardware. It was Kino just like the DS, which I did own.
>>693709701ah the monster hunter machine
I remember that one rich kid at school who had one. When I was around early uni, I got some second hand one (had NDS previously) with cfw already installed and also liked it, however it had far smaller library than NDS and most games were ports anyway. As I don't have any stationary console up to this day, I didn't really mind but I guess that was also the main flaw of PSP, that it was not focusing on its own stuff. That and it was far less fragile than NDS - my dpad was frequently "pressing" up on its own due to moisture in air easily deforming "protective" layer under pad itself while my NDS was once accidentally left at car for night with -30C outside without any I'll effects. Nintendo stuff used to be indestructible back then, just like Gameboy Advance screen.
>>693709701It was great and honestly worth it for MHFU alone>getting a mate round for a sleepover and just playing Monster Hunter until the early hours of the morningI miss it
>>693715695*blocks your path*
>>693709701yes, it was the first accessible portable porn device and mp3 player combo that also played games
>>693709701Nigga it's nuts
>>693709701Pretty much.It was super innovative, it was the first console that provided a tv console experience on the go.It also had good online capability for free at a time where online gameplay was either PC, paid ps2 or paid Xbox live.They also have super innovative games.The unsigned code and PS1 emulation was something that was revolutionary, and that isn't including SNES, Genisis, etc. Emulation on PSP.Also it could surf the internet and do it shockingly well for browsing, not the best for writing or typing though. Seems like no big deal now, but smartphones weren't a thing and the only thing with wifi connectivity was a laptop.>so what was the bad>No 2nd joystick and shoulder buttons>Batery life was dogshit and powerbanks weren't a thing at the time>Most exclusives for PSP ended up on ps2 after 6 months meaning the only advantage was the portability.>UMD movies were dogshit and had compressed sound but pirated movies worked great>build quality wasn't the best and issues like a dead button were more common.>Updates to block homebrew and piracy were annoying and became the only thing sony focused on... i mean for good reason, piracy ended up killing the console.>Cameras in 3rd person games sucked cause no 2nd joystick>Cost more than a ps2 at the time>UMDs were a dumb move due to how power intensive they were.It was peak gaming honestly. Nintendo DS was impressivePSP was impressive360 and PS3 were getting ready to launch.and wii was all the rage despite being just an overclockes Gamecube.I miss when gaming didn't have faggot moderators banning you for perceived offenses, people talked shit online, games were focused on being fun, when you could curl up on the couch together with your family and hang out while playing a few online rounds of syphon filter, tekken 5, or powerstone.
>>693709701monster hunter basically
>>693730628>not knowing basic electronics>setting for a shitty chink battery that lasts less than OEM instead of modding in 12+ hours of unlimited powalet me guess, your IQ is in the double digits and you flip burgers for living
>>693734906a first world burger flipper's wage is $15 or morewhy the fuck would anyone waste their time with tinkering when one hour of waging can afford them 3 "good enough" batteries?but sure by all means keep trying to convince us to waste time with tinkering, turdie
Literally the only good handheld ever made with great games, it wasnt a piece of shit toy like the nintentroon ds which library was 99% flash game tier garbage
>>693735357It's a real tragedy that a vote from an emasculated faggot like you is worth the same as mine, assuming you are American and not from some failed Euro state. I hope a beaner takes your job.
>>693735357why are you so obsessed with thirdies and so scared of a soldering iron burger flippin' bro
>>693736841>dem voting faggotI knew it.
>>693709701I look back on the PSP fondly, but I think that’s just because the library felt very eclectic and strange, but varied. It put hours into GOW: Ghost of Sparta and P3P is one of my favourite games of all time, and I think part of that is because it’s simple, it doesn’t have you running around for minutes looking for things to do, like Persona 5 Royal. I wish every PSP game was available on modern consoles and platforms.
>>693709701It runs PS1 games perfectly. Of course it was great.
easy to jailbreak and play pirated games on, and decent multimedia capability for watching limewire 18yo_first_orgasm.mp4.exe on, so yes it was good
the PSP had PS1-2 type of games on it while the PS3 was shitting itself with nogamez and the dogshit westoid AAA push started becoming a thing.really the only bearable games at the time were handheld.
>>693710281i never understood this sentiment about portables. ppl say the same thing about the game boy and i don't get it. how long does it take you to shit? it's like a 30 second affair, maybe 3 minutes if i'm feeling not so good but who honestly plays games in the dirtiest, smelliest, most uncomfortable place in your house?
>>693738459>who honestly plays games in the dirtiest, smelliest, most uncomfortable place in your house?White trash, niggers, drug addicts, third worlders
>>693724476Will forever be appreciative for how little bullshit was involved in just dropping mp3's into your psp music folder and going off about your day. Especially compared to ishit at the time having to go through itunes to update your playlist when you just want to add a new song or two.
>>693709701It was. It was a powerful system back then (essentially a PS1.5), with a great lineup of games.It was already great for emulation.
lel
Do you think it has reached peak popularity among retro collectorfags yet? do you think it's something that they will never fully latch onto?
>>693739218and modding it let you also just load games from the shitty proprietary sd card.never had to deal with UMDs
It was, because it had Dissidia.
>>693740889Indeed, even though we could only fit a handful on there considering memory stick sizes were ass for the price. Had to keep rotating games on my oem 4gb card.Thankfully there's pic related now, where you can fit most of the native library, ps1, gba, and a bit of snes, all on a 64gb card. >Tried a 128 but the startup load time was huge and even led to data corruption once.
>>693742639gotta get me one of those
>>693731130Been playing LA on an Android. The fucking cpu in Tokyo always crashes me at the end to beat me.
>>693709701It was a crock of shit back in the Pandora's Battery days but once the authentication keys were leaked and enabling CFW was as easy and dragging and dropping 2 files, it became GOAT tier. Cheap, portable, great build quality, variety of models (Go and E1000 are underrated), immense battery (could last literally months in standby mode), crisp screen, could emulate thousands of retro games as well as some quality homebrew like the Cave Story port which is still better than most of the official remakes, could dump UMDs and make its own backups, its own library was great if you like JRPGs.Absolutely and utterly mogged its own successor and the 3DS. Nothing has really replaced it. Yeah your phone can emulate SNES with more accuracy but phones have no buttons and awful batteries so you have to carry around a bunch of accessories for it to be feasible. >>693738459They're obese.
>>693709701My psp battery bloated so now I can't play it anymore:(
>>693709701What are it's best games?
>>693710374Monster Hunter 3rdSeveral awesome Metal Gears. I still consider Peace Walker to be the last good Metal Gear game. The amount of content they crammed into it with such limitations was insane.Two of the best God of Wars of that era.Dissidia.Wipeout.Persona 3 although I am not sure if that didn't come out first on big console.Crisis Core.Patapon!Tens of thousands of hours on that baby.
>>693745031Gotta say that fucking battery life was insane. It could last a week of commuting.
>>693731130>>693744053Midnight Madness LA has insane fucking soundtrack. Still have its playlist saved on a phone.
>>693741863The cutscenes with Cecil and Golbez remain one of my most favorite ones in videogames. The voiceacting was phenomenal.Jecht and Tidus moments also added a lot to FFX.
>>693738459Whey you are in a household with multiple people,shitter might be the only place where you have a moment of piece, so you can stay there for a long time.
>>693737741Why is some seething eropod hans shitting up a thread about PSP. You fucktarded shilling will never amount to anything and you will keep sucking comittee dick.
>>693710374Kenka Banchou games, Gachitora, Yakuza games.
>>693709701The scene, mostly.A PSP without a CFW is just half a console.It's why, for me, the Steam Deck is the spiritual successor to the PSP.All the people developing homebrew and emulators for it is akin to what people used to do with the PSP.
I hated the form factor, it would make my hands go numb when playing on the bed. Also the lack of a second stick really ruins a lot of games.
>>693709701At the time, yes. And for a while after with all the homebrew and the fact that it was a portable music device as well.
Worth slapping an OLED screen on it?
>>693750717Are there OLED mods now?
>>693709701My battery expired a few years ago cause I think I left it in a box for a decade
>>693737741>low IQ europoor>calling others thirdies for having real hobbiespotterygo check if mohammed isn't fucking your gf or something
Are PSP batteries just defective? My DS battery is fine to this day and I don't hear people complaining a lot about them online, but everyone with a PSP seems to get a free balloon in due time.
>>693750865my mistake, there are IPS screens
>>693709701It was my go-to multimedia/gaming/porn device because good luck getting anything good to play or watch on the tiny screens with the old Nokia phones.
>>693750717It's worth getting a Vita for it since the screen scales perfectly at 2x size.
I hate how flimsy and scratch prone the shell is, is there any matte replacement shell with a glass screen or something like that?
>>693750717>>693750865Doing more digging. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/918340-playstation-portable/80602362yeah IPS are and always have been shit
It had great games on top of being able to emulate older consoles
>>693751203I never found a site or figured a way to watch videos. I only ever looked at pics
Nintendo copying peespee remote play with pstriple decade later with nintendo switch. Dildo ass joycons and no games as fun as socom. Oh and what does switch have? Some lil bitch walking around going hah.
>>693751242You can find glass lenses and even metal shells if you look hard enough.
I want to get one but they cost a shit ton. Considering buying retroid pocket instead. 2s seems to be doing a good job at emulating psp and priced smilarly. or I might go for 4 maybe
>>693751535>socom
The PSP Monster Hunters seems like still the best places to start no?
>>693746530locoroco, patapon. I loved crush as a kid
>>693709701it was peak cozy /v/ros, i have this vivid memory when we all brought our PSP's to school and played GTA multiplayer, truly the peakest dopamine as a child.
>>693709701It's great, same with DS.Much better than the home consoles of their time.I still occasionally boot up mine for a hunt in MonHun and I still do yearly playthroughs of Patapon (this is my 11th run I think).
>>693709701I really wish the Vita had been more successful, as many have said the PSP was great for emulation and successors to the PSP and Vita would've been even better
>>693709701UMDs. The psp became inpopular once it stopped using them and then died.
>>693738459I poop like a normal person now, but back in those days, I would sit in the bathroom for 30 minutes or maybe even an hour because it was basically the only place in the house that you could "get away" from everything. Not fat either, never have been.
>>693752096monster hunter freedom unite has a steep learning curve, start with monster hunter portable 3rd instead, there's an english translation for it
>>693751236until some fag shows up to say the Vita has scaling issues for some reason. 2x is 2x, even if the pixels are physically larger.
>>693709701Sure was lil zoomie, but a lot of that was superseded by advancements in phones to be frank. I did everything I do on my phone now on the psp back in the day. Music, jewtube, emulation, movies. It was great
>>693752096Yep, start with 2g
>>693715695>2560x1440
>>693751269I'd pay good money to have this on my switch. Or I could take the 2 hour train ride to my parents and fetch my psp and a couple of games but that would require effort.Hope Ratatan will be decent on Switch I'd prefer playing it on handheld rather than pc
>>693710374>shitty portsIt was the other way around. Most of time games were ported from PSP to the PS2/3.

>>693753695lmfao
>>693752096Certainly. Problem is that if you are used to World or god forbid Rise, old Freedom Unite or 2G as it was known will badly molest you.Few people are prepared for moonwalking Plesioth or fucking trolling with high level Diablos hodden in low level quests.
>>693731130My nigga
>>693751330I had to download and convert videos. The PSP was pretty terrible at watching videos online.
When I was a kid I would have sold my soul to get a PSP so I could play MediEvil Resurrection and Ratchet and Clank Size Matters. I had no idea they were like the two worst first party games on the system.
>>693709701One of my friends had it. He spoke very highly of it over a long period of time. I trust him so I guess it was good.
>>693758934>Ratchet and Clank Size MattersThere's no fucking way they actually made a game called that
>>693759435seriously? especially after up your arsenal that's what makes you surprised?
>>693709701It was better at playing Classic Nintendo games than the DS. I loved my DS, but I LOVED my PSP. >PSP library >PS1 library >Emulators up the wazooThe only thing bad about it was the shitty mem stick, but now we have an adapter that lets you use a micro SD card.
>>693759435The R&C series had always had a funny naming scheme for the sequels. I think the only one not to have it is Deadlock.
>>693759990They tended to get censored a lot too. Up Your Arsenal got censored in a lot of regions, Crack in Time was originally Clockblocked, Into the Nexus was originally something with "nethers" in the title (pussy joke)Going Commando was the only good gag subtitle anyway they shouldn't have made that a thing for the series
>>693709701I don't remember many games on it but I VIVIDLY remember using it to discover Internet pornand my dad years later, after id got bored of it, he sold it for me, and then mentioned 'oh by the way i cleared your browser history before i sold it'

>>693709701Its library was extremely limited. But I got mine on a custom firmware, even had to open the battery for that, and was able to play a ton of downloaded games and run various emulators.I've owned most portable consoles : game boy color, advance, DS, 3DS, Game Gear, PSP and Vita. The PSP is by far the one I played the most. I still have it, still works.
>>693762905>I got mine on a custom firmware, even had to open the battery for thatwhat?
NDS vs PSP was peak, but completly destroyed, vanished, and killed by smartphone
A joke compared to the Vita. The vita rivals the ps2 game library easily. PSP is as bad as the neo geo.
>>693763286Bait used to be believable
>>693763082
>>693764154huh, never did that. I had one of the first models and as far as I remember I mostly just put stuff on the memory stick.
>>693764061Truth hurts.
>>693763186>peakAs if you would know, zoomer
>>693764352It was necessary on the slim and lite model. Without a Pandora battery you couldn't instal a CFW
I hacked mine around a year after release, had hella emulators, free psp games, features like being able to play music in the background of a game, and watch tons of shemale porn. best console ever. i'm addicted to shemale porn.

>>693710716the original DS with the hinge prone to breaking?
>>693764690that explains it, alright
>>693709701The PSP is still by FAR the handheld I played the most. I rarely ever finished handheld games, but I remember playing through the entirety of things like Crisis Core on it (and shedding manly tears during the ending). The homebrew scene was amazing and it always felt like something new was being discovered. I remember when you could customize PS1 games when putting them on the PSP, adding little video clips and such that would show up in the XMB. It was the coolest shit ever at the time.It's sad that the Vita flopped so hard, but Sony's greed kneecapped it right from the start with those shitty proprietary memory cards that cost a small fortune.>>693745126Replacements cost like ten bucks. Ostent is generally the recommended brand to get.
>>693709701I've played like 5,000 hours on my psp-3000 and had absolutely nothing go wrong with it. Sure the battery pak bloated but I just plug it in to an outlet.You can't get to 400 hours with the 3DS without some part disintegrating.
>>693709701>wifi>hd 16:9 screen>multimedia playbackIt offered smartphone features 4 years before smartphones became mainstream. That's all there is to it, really
>>693766385I've got a n3ds and only thing I've replaced, besides battery, was the nub, which I've swapped with the psp's analog.
>>693709701This little thing is what got me into modding.Was so awesome being able to play Super Nintendo and PS1 games on it back in high school
>>693709701Yes, it has game, psx and ps2 souls went to psp and psvita and died with them. You are living a nightamare called: Sony presents "playstation"sonyps3, sonps4 and sonyps5 are not playstation consoles.
>>693710918to put than in perspective:It was 2004-2011, it was when "gaming" was trend and cool with "no gaming" people.Also it was before android, tablets and the rise of social media.
No, it's not very good in hindsight but back in the day it was (still is) incredibly easy to mod
>>693709701It had a great exclusive library, and a bunch of unique spin offs for popular franchises. It was honestly better than anything on the DS at the time.>Monster Hunter F1, F2, FU, P3rd>Final Fantasy 7: Crisis Core>Final Fantasy Dissidia & Duodecim>MGS: Peace WalkerThen they dropped the ball with the VITA by making it a port machine rather than having any exclusives and so the 3DS took over the market.
>>693709701It was the equivalent of having a 2024 smart phone in 2004, back when everyone only had flip phones that could barely play snake.>connected to wifi to browse the internet in your room or out in public, the former being important back when everyone had family PCs because everyone needed to use the pc when they didn't have smartphones.>could emulate older games>could pirate the entire catalog>could watch movies on it (that you pirated)>could listen to music on it (that you pirated)>had good games with insane graphics for a portable at the time>could stream your ps3 games to it and play them in bed>could hook it up to your tv and use a ps3 controller with it to treat it like an actual consoleActual god tier device at the time.
>>693766385>You can't get to 400 hours with the 3DS without some part disintegrating.Bullshit. I got easily 1k+ hours on mine (most of which was Monster Hunter games, so input heavy action games) and it's still in perfect condition.
yeah specifically because it had games, actual good ones and not shit portsperfect for me when i was 14 and my rents forced me to go on vacation 4 times a year

>>693764154God damn, that pic gave me nostalgia. >>693764352It was from the earliest modding scenes on the PSP. Before software modding, you had to hardware mod the 1k and 2k batteries. Literally cut them open and the 2k models had 2 different motherboards so before you could do anything you had to check to see if you had the older motherboard or a newer one. You had to do something differently if you had the newer motherboard but I forgot what. Shortly after, it was discovered that you didn't need to pull the pins but take a simple pencil and draw a line elsewhere. The lead from the pencil would cancel out a circuit or some shit. At the time I didn't know how this shit worked but it worked for me and I was able to mod my PSP. Now imagine being a kid and doing either of these methods and don't know jack shit about electricity or circuit board. Now imagine actually wanting to do this after seeing hundreds of people online, possibly kids too, starting fires trying to make a pandora battery. I remember seeing so many burned PSP's and yet I still went for it.No other feeling could compare to PSP battery modding.
>>693717936in the ocean along with used up cooking oil
98% of the library was trash but there were a few gems. Most of the games worth playing got ports to better systems
modded psp opened my eyes to the world of emulation
>>693759435>Going command>Up your arsenal>Quest for bootyidk man, it fits the usual bill
I'm thinking of picking up a psp, should I buy a third party battery in case the one in my psp explodes and burns my house down?
>>693771874I think you just install infinity nowadays. Still just a drag and drop installation process.
It had a web browser and a bunch of PDA style features that the DS did not have, at least until the DSi.It also had local LAN multiplayer which was awesome. I used to play Battlefront with kids on the bus on the way home from school shit was awesome.
>>693776872Don't worry about it
>>693751236I saw PSP throw a vita oled; no it isn't, psp looks blurry as fuck. Might stick to PPSSPP over it also vita has the wonky button layout

>>693710834HEY ANON!COME OUT AND PLAY!
>>693778620The analog stick on my 1k broke recently and the chink replacement I got feels like shit, it really sucks.

i put close to 1000 hours in phantasy star portable 2. i had a cast that did everything except technique stuff.
>>693778108The slight blur added to PSP games on a Vita is no worse than the defects that each model of PSP's screen had. The black smearing on 1000 and 2000 models is FAR worse than a slight blur, whilst the 3000 panel is massively oversaturated and suffers from ugly interlacing artifacts. The Go has the best screen (still oversaturated though) and a "cool" form factor, but shit tier battery life, inferior controls and is uncomfortable to hold.The only decent option for original PSP hardware is the IPS mod available for 1000 series units, but that requires some soldering.

>>693709701I got the PSP for my birthday in Spring of 2005 when I turned 16. I only had around 5 games for it, three of which I got in 2005 being Twisted Metal, Dynasty Warriors and Untold Legends. The other two were GTA Liberty City Stories and eventually Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions.My thoughts on it? It was novel. The media capabilities blew me the fuck away when I used the demo disc since the resolution at the time was so crisp and it was unreal to see a device that small to have a screen so rich in detail, esp compared to the fat DS which came out 5 months earlier in 2004. But I never actually bought movies for it. The thing felt too cramped primarily its analog stick esp since I was 16 so physically my hands had grown to their peak. And ultimately the battery's lifespan was a problem along with the screen being so wide yet vulnerable to smudging. By the time I turned 18 my usage of mobile gaming was very limited since I was in college and the game line up from what I rented wasn't so stellar. If I wanted to play a mobile game, it was usually a DS game.
name ONE reason why the psp is better than the vita
>>693783746You asking me?
>>693783746looks nicer
>>693783746psp is built like a tank no matter the model. if you have a oled vita if you drop it the whole thing cracks.
Anyone's battery blow up yet?
>>693709701>Was the PSP really as great as some people say?yes>If so, why?MHFUSolid construction, buttons felt solid and nice, unrivaled handheld performance for the time, cool joystick nub, nice wide screen. Even my nu3DS XL feels like plastic junk compared to my original psp.
>>693787785Yeah, mine did. It didn't "blow up" literally, but it ballooned to a size that caused me to throw it away.
>>693709701Playing yugioh tag forces, god eater, monsters hunter, etc anywhere was one of the most fun moments in my life. We still do now but stuck on pc online just doesn't feel the same.
>>693709701It was fantastic, coming from the GBA seeing PS2 games running on a handheld was mindblowing. It had tons of great games. But for me it's the media player functionality that made it so good, I have watched hundreds of movies and a couple dozen entire seasons of anime. Had so much fun with homebrew and emulation too, the piracy/homebrew scene was huge back then. So much good memories.
Yes. It introduced me to DJMAX and those games were the bee's knees. And more people need to play Kingdom of Paradise.
>homebrew this homebrew thatdid anyone ever use a CFW for anything besides pirating games?
>>693789648psp had nogames
>>693781429>The slight blur added to PSP games on a Vita is no worse than the defects that each model of PSP's screen had.I never saw a faulty screen on psp aside the regular quality (that I always found below average).

>>693709701I played PSP Revolution a lot as a kid.
>>693709701Sony packed a lot of power in this thing for its time. I remember realizing how crazy it was to hold a fully functional web browser in your hand. Of course the first thing I did was look at porn.
I played PS Allstars all the time, it was actually really fun
>>693783746Better start/select button placement, better triggers. The vita's cool, but I've got nitpicks with it's design. The PSP just feels a bit nicer in the hands for games designed for it.
>>693783746The vita is better than the psp in every single aspect, I love the psp but the vita is flat out better, the only real thing the psp has over the vita is its library but the vita can play all psp games natively
>>693778579that was a jank ass game. But just me I was chainsawman before chainsawman was a thing

>>693772872I had one when i was 14 and i also agree. Smartphones weren't a thing, having something with this formfactor that could render decent looking 3d graphics and fit in your pocket and play media and browse the web was absolutely incredible and to top it off it had a good selection of games after a while, with everything from experimental weird games like Loco Roco to fighting games that were actually pretty good like Tekken Dark Ressurection to great racing games like Ridge Race to online multiplayer shooting games like the starwars battlefront games. It's hard to see all this in the perspective of it's era and what else was there and what wasn't there if you didn't live it at a time where you were old enough to appreciate any of these details.
>>693764154a guy i went to school with did this for me, then later i had to do it myself in college cause the old original one busted.
>>693793213>the only real thing the psp has over the vita is its library>vita doesn't have the only important thing a game system should have
>>693772872Dude, it was a portable psx and a ps2 mini that you could carry anywhere, it had a 4 hour battery (a lot at the time) and if you had the cables or methods you could watch videos and stuff in it, it was like a mini laptop for games, nowadays that sounds gay considering a cellphone could do that and much more, but back then the only other console on the market was the gba and laptops were still some years away from being affordable for the general public.>tldryou had to be there :^)
>>693709701I'm not going to talk to quality or library, but it was the only handheld console that EVER came even close to competing with Nintendo handheld. And even then, it was still way behind Nintendo in that category, but that it even came close it all is insane.So when talking successful handhelds, PSP is always worth a mentioning being the sole non-Nintendo device that actually had an impact.
Still have my PSP, and a Vita, and 3DS. They're great emulation machines. >tfw playing Cave Story on vita, Front Mission 3 on PSP, and MegaMan ZX on 3DS

>>693763186It was sort of an inevitability, I felt. The entire trajectory of portable technology pivoted around the debut of the iPhone and the race to catch up to it after its release. Even super high tech feature phones like Blackberry and the various Windows Mobile devices felt antiquated, and it also killed dedicated MP3 players and a lot of other mobile tech like PDAs. I've personally been sort of moving back towards having a selection of dedicated devices, because I'd rather have one device that does its one thing exceedingly well rather than a device that's just okay at everything with notable compromises all up and down the path.

the psp sucks but the vita is the best handheld ever made.
>>693709701PSP was a game-changer. You could expect console quality games in a handheld device, with a sleek formfactor that had excellent peripheral support. The exclusives library was extensive and quite notable instead of shovel ware kings *coughs at Nintendo* that we're all familiar with. The lack of a second joystick was a design choice that wouldn't be remedied until the PSVITA release. The VITA sadly wasn't supported with an extensive library nor exhaustive peripherals that were produced by a wide range of manufacturers; instead we got perfect hardware devoid of any software. Sony let it die on the vine because people weren't lining up for an anemic library and limited accessories.
>>693800009Because they sink, duh.
>>693709701No. Vita is way better.
>>693794853retard, the vita has a good library but I admit the psp library is far better. We were all spoiled during the psp era. It had so much first party and third party support.
>>693789648pspdisp was cool

>>693802774GBA was 90% garbage but still had some of my favorite games on it. People hark on about DS but does it look like I would want to go from actual games to dog grooming simulators?
I used it 90% for hentai and porn
>>693802254>We were all spoiled during the psp era. It had so much first party and third party support.
It was basically a portable PS2. And since PS2 was the best era of playstation, yes, it really was as great as people say.
>>693787785This thread caused my to dig my white PSP 2000 out of a drawer for the first time in about a decade and the battery is fine. No bulging and it still holds a good charge.It also reminded me just how much more comfortable to hold the PSP is than the Vita. The Vita is too tall. It makes using the triggers uncomfortable. Still hard to go back though. I fired up Sonic 2 in PicoDrive and was immediately reminded of how shit the PSP's screen is, with black trails out the ass during motion.>>693794853The Vita has a better software library than people give it credit for, especially if you weren't playing things on console. Like it has a really good port of XCOM: Enemy Unknown for example. It's the full game as released on consoles/PC and makes for a great handheld experience (especially with the Vita's unmatched sleep function). It was essentially a proto-Switch.
>>693709701PSP was the pinnacle of golden age of handheld gaming. it had its faulty gimmicks but man it was a blast...
I want to get a Vita but I don't want it to replace my PSP. I must be autistic but I'm really attached to it and I don't want it to lose its purpose.
>>693730457This kid died within a week of his disappearance and his parents still haven't found his body going on 20 years, not to mention his murderers getting of scott free . Very sad actually.
>>693710834that's just disgusting and wrong, would never happen
>>693710374may more than the switch
>>693805884Just get a steam deck or some chink shit handheld and pray vita emulation gets good enough for the rest of the vita only games. These days its harder and harder to recommend a Vita in this day and age. A lot of annoying stuff to look out for, mostly sony related, which will have you buying extra shit to keep up with it.
>>693709701>powerful handheld that could play "big" 3D games and PS1 games>lots of unique games>multimedia player>internet access>cfw>could easily download everything straight to the psp>pornAll of that on top of internet still being a somewhat new/inaccessible thing for a lot of people made it amazing
>>693709701It came at a moment in time right before smartphones and had some solid games. It reached its full potential as hardware when people started messing around with it with homebrews, and made it a console that could play anything released before its launch. Playing Pokemon, on an emulator, on a Sony platform was like saying "fuck you" to both Sony and Nintendo at the same time, which added charm to it.
Best way to play psp games outside the original hardware?
>>693810580If you can find one, a Dragonbox Pyra has the perfect usecase for PSP emulation as it's a UMPC with very beefy specs to run PPSSPP and anything else you may want. But those are unobtanium AFAIK. The Steam Deck is the more reasonable answer. Again, PPSSPP is the emulator you want to play PSP games on the go outside of the PSP hardware.
Out of the handhelds I own (Vita, PSP, GBA SP, N2DSxl), I still think the psp is the best as an actual portable console, only rivaled by the gba. The vita is just too big to carry around in my pocket, especially with the analogs sticking out.
>>693709701How come the Vita did so much worse than the PSP?
>>693802774>gba which was a mini SNES.Yes. Similar sub par resolution.
>>693811478It came out after smartphones not only became popular, but were able to play full-fledged games like the PSP and NDS used to. There was no point in releasing a portable console after the market pretty much vanished post 2009/2010. Shame, because it seemed like a good successor to the PSP.
>>693811478Only in the west. The vita enjoyed a long wonderful life in japan.
>>693709701It’s still decent as a handheld for homebrew and visual novels.
>>693789648I played Doom, Quake, a snes emulator and a Minecraft clone when the game was new
>>693811478Bad marketing and no support from Sony.They almost had some momentum with Gravity Rush but it quickly died because nothing else of note was coming out
I really like my vita. I mainly use it for ps1/psp games (you can use the second analog stick in some games) and stuff like Spelunky or Hotline Miami.
I wish vitas were cheaper it would be good for homebrew
>>693811478Sony lost interest in it when it wasn't an immediate smash hit success and just allowed it to wither and die in the West. It was also released around the peak era of smartphone gaming hype and people talking about how it mobile gaming was going to replace even consoles. The Vita would probably do much better if it was released today, since pretty much everybody has accepted by this point that touch screen controls fucking suck and smartphone games have been relegated to Candy Crush-tier garbage. The market for proper handheld gaming devices has exploded again as a result, yet only Nintendo and a bunch of bootlegger chinks have been around to profit from it because Sony has zero interest in innovation these days.
>>693807135STFU prick
>>693811478This could be completely made up but it kinda makes sense, I remember reading a couple years ago that they intentionally started marketing it less because they had PTSD over PSP CFW and once the vita got hacked they basically gave up on it in the west. It's a shame because it was a great handheld with some cool games but there could have been even more.
>>693709701What games did you guys have for this back in the day? I remember I had SSX, star war battlefront 2 and Harry potter and the goblet of fire. I really wish I had more like Kingdom hearts and stuff but i still really liked it
>>693709701There weren't that many games on it that interested me - I was playing on is a 16 year old at the time so I didn't have a lot of money anyway. The PSP was for me the first time I had access to a portable device that was powerful enough to emulate old video games, and it fit in my pocket. Because I was in my senior high school years at this time, I'd frequently have gaps in my class schedule that didn't line up with my friends, and so having the PSP to chill out in the library with in-between classes was fucking amazing. As soon as I learned that I could play PS1 games on the thing and how easy it was to convert PS1 isos to whatever the file the PSP needed to play them I was able to give a finger to sony and played like 50 JRPGs on the thing over 2 years. And a lot of Dissidia.Nothing special now, your phone can do it, but remember this was before the iphone had become a ubiquitous thing and well before android. The PSP was just a genuinely amazing device for the time.
>>693737172This. Retards claiming P3P downgrades anything have no idea what makes the game clock in the first place.
>>693814375The same for me. But I kept it at home. Been playing many JRPGs, both PS1 ones and the native PSP releases. I was playing Crisis Core and enjoying Zack and Aerith love story (because I've had my first girlfriend back then), reading Tsukihime for the first time and filling the void left after my first break up, playing FFVII, Xenogears and Parasite Eve at night trying to press buttons as quitely as I can, finishing the Lunar 1 remake just after getting back home from graduation exams and then playing P3P during my first year at university. I actually got a DS Lite later but it didn't keep me as hooked as PSP did.
Yes very much so
>>693814116Before getting it jailbroken it was very hard to get UMDs in my shithole of a town (as well as quite expensive). I got the first game with PSP itself, an Asian copy of Ridge Racers 2 (it's still amazing). The only other things I could play for a long time were demos from the DVD's bundled with gaming magazines. That way I discovered Exit, Mercury Meltdown and some other weird addicting stuff. Can't remember how many games I got in total but the earliest ones after RR2 were Chili Con Carnage (loved the original Total Overdose and this one is very fun too), Killzone Liberation (I honestly love it more than most of the mainline Killzone games), MGS Portable Ops (enough said about it but I liked it) and Syphon Filter Dark Mirror (I was a fan of the original three PS1 games, so seeing it as a great modern-feeling TPS on a portable system felt surreal).
>>693770685I remember this game. It really stuck with me and I think about it from time to time. After I beat it I remember thinking it was exactly an adequate game. It was the perfect combination of factors for me to sufficiently feel content about the experience. Not that I loved or hated it, or thought it was good or bad, but it was exactly average

>>693763082Some software & hardware versions were harder to crack. I remember I needing an umd disc as a step while installing custom ROM. Like at some step I needed to put a disc in, any random one would workAlso I think for some versions you needed a specific game or something that had an exploit/bug that allows custom rom installation. Price of that shitty game sky rocketed because of that. (But maybe that was a different console, i just reae about it)

>>693709701It was way ahead of its time, got me into MH and phantasy star. Blew my mind when I went to a friend's birthday party and he had a modded one
Based psp thread
>>693751242>matteHere you go.
>>693811478It was considerably more expensive than the PSP even compared to the orignal release price of the PSP and it never saw a price drop.It was way ahead of its time with an OLED display, I wanted one so bad as a kid but knew I could never afford it.
*block your path*

>>693710374i really liked gran turismo PSP even if the progression was fucking retarded, popping it out where ever, doing a few races, and seeing what's for sale in the dealership was always a treat.
>>693811478No ez piratable console
>>693811478Nobody wants to spend 300$ on a handheld and then 60$ on an 8GB SD card
I downloaded Bubsy 3D to my PSP so I could play it.There are no savestates, so I am only able to play around with the first couple stages.

>>693709701Extremely pocketable and also plays PS1 games.
>>693829484plus tekken and dragon ball shin budokaimake that 7
>>693827694The PSP's PS1 backwards compatibility was without a doubt my favorite part of the system. I bought nearly 40 PS1 games off PSN before I ever even found out you could hack the system, it's all I used it for.
>>693709701Oddly enough the PSP version of Force Unleashed had the most content of any version
>>693829848I even got Hilton Garden Inn: Ultimate Team Play working on my PSP.
I bought a PSP off ebay 2 days ago and got Star Wars Battlefront with it. Anything else I should get?
