Download PSP Emulator - How To Get Emulators For Your PSP and Play Classic Games

Want to download PSP emulator software? Many people aren’t aware of it, but using your Sony PSP with emulator software is just about some of the best fun you can have with it. Imagine how cool it is to download and play yesterday’s classics like Super Mario and Sonic?

Using emulator software with your PSP isn’t exactly as simple as it first sounds however. First of all you will need to download some Emulation software for your PSP. This software basically lets you download and use the games from other systems on your PSP. As with lots of things on PSP, there are thousands of places to get this software from online, but many of them can be quite shady and may damage your PSP or your computer. Read on below to learn how to find the reputable places to download PSP emulator software.

Once you’ve managed to download PSP emulator software, you will then need to find some games to use it with. The game files to use with emulation software are often called Roms, and before you download any it is worth finding out the legal standpoint-in many places it is illegal to download roms for emulators, unless the original manufacturer has made the download property of the public domain, which some do. On the other hand, the law in many places will allow you to have a backup copy of a game you already own-so if you already have the games on your old Genesis or whatever, you’re set!

The next step in downloading PSP emulator software is to check the firmware of your PSP. Certain firmwares will not allow the use of such software, so generally speaking you are better with one of the early ones. Don’t worry though; there are plenty of ways to downgrade your firmware to an earlier version if that’s what you need to do.

As we said, finding some reliable sources to download PSP emulators from and the games etc can be tricky-in general such sites can be put into three groups-

1-Totally free sites, but with poor selections, software that doesn’t work and downloads that are super slow and often riddled with spyware and malware, that’s if they work at all.

2-Membership sites that will claim to be free, but then try and charge you by the download. This is not cool, and I don’t know about you but I don’t like the idea of paying good money for 10 or 15 year old games that I already own.

3-Cool membership sites that charge a one off fee and then give unlimited downloads. I would recommend sites like this to download PSP emulator software from, as they are usually very professionally run, and offer a wide range of downloads at a very high speed. As an added bonus you can usually find brand new PSP games to download, as well as the emulation stuff, all in with the same initial price.

So You Want to Download Game, PSP Format? 3 Essential Tips

So you want to play the download game? PSP downloads are all over the web, and why shouldn’t they be? The PSP is an amazing piece of technology, the only drawbacks to it are the prices of games and movies, which is where the free psp game download sites come in. The only problem is that lots of these sites are no more than scammers trying to infect your computer or even worse. I’ve compiled a few tips for you here so you may be able to download games for PSP safely.



Play the download game, PSP style-Game Download Tip 1
Get yourself a trusted site- Surf the PSP sites for any longer than about 30 seconds and you will soon notice all the ads offering free PSP game downloads, and also mp3s for PSP and movies etc. Once they wear you down enough for you to give and click one of these pop ups or banners, almost everytime you’ll be lead to some lame page offering a handful of old PSP games to download free. The best part is that when you try and download any, you’ll find the downloads real slow, the servers may boot you because they are overworked, and best yet you might even be downloading a virus too! I don’t need to tell you that you need to avoid sites like this- believe me, it’s just not worth the hassle.



Play the download game, PSP style-Game Download Tip 2
Don’t be drawn in- Things that seem too good to be true usually are, so don’t let the claims of some of these sites catch you out. As well as the illegal sites mentioned above, you will also find more than a few “scam” sites. They look like a dream come true at first-latest games, new movies, cool wallpapers etc, but it all stops as soon as you actually try to download something. They’ll ask for your credit card details faster than you can blink! What’s worse, it’s not even a one off fee, they will be wanting you to pay monthly for as long as you want to use their service. Hard to see how they can claim “free” PSP game downloads huh? I tend to avoid these guys too. I don’t like to be charged when they tell me something is free, and I certainly don’t like paying monthly.



Play the download game, PSP style-Game Download Tip 3
Pay for quality- Since I’ve had my PSP I have found a few download sites that are worth their weight in gold. The drawback is that for the best sites like these you need to pay, but it’s not a big scam like those other guys. It’s usually just one fee, ever, $30 or $40, and then you get to download as much as you want as often as you want. Because you pay them upfront, they can make sure they have all the latest free PSP game downloads, and they are all high speed etc. Basically for the price of one new game you get to own every new game ever released. Not too shabby huh?



That’s all there is to playing the download game, PSP style. Try and avoid the scam sites, and find one good site to stick to. If you find the right site you can download to your hearts content and never have to pay another fee.

PSP Custom Firmware 3.93 Released...Not from M33?

A new custom firmware has sprung up over the weekend… It doesn’t pack any catchy name, and the developer [apparently] wishes to remain anonymous; despite that, PSP Custom Firmware 3.93 is fully functional and works quite well. Evidently it’s based off the work of Dark_AleX and Team M33.

PSP Custom Firmware 3.93:

Uses the 3.93 kernel

Implemented all the original custom firmware features.

Ability to use the normal recovery inside the XMB by pressing the HOME button:

When in the recovery, the system is suspended, and you can change all options directly.

All options work immediately, there is no need to reboot (even the Slim’s USB charging option)

Ability to make a Pandora battery from the recovery, read and restore the EEPROM, etc. Providing that the motherboard supports it.

Ability to hide the MAC address in System Information, if you do so, the MAC will show visually as all 0’s.

Ability to save the savegames in normal format, rather then encrypted (only functions in March33 and Sony NP9960 mode).

The native 3.93 pops isn’t as good as the previous pops; therefore I hope the popsloader will get updated to support 3.93.
1.50 Kernel Add On:

Install kernel 1.50 on a PSP Fat. To use the 1.50 kernel for an application, you’ll absolutely need to put the kernel to 1.50, even if the application is in the GAME150 directory. If you change the kernel in VSH Recovery, you’ll still need a reboot.

The new recovery has this two asked features:
Suspend device
Shutdown device
Whether or not you should upgrade — that’s your discretion. I’d only recommend ensuring you have a means of recovery if something unforeseen happens; i.e.) a pandora’s battery.

!WARNING! Press “X” when the official updater finishes; if not, you will have a brick.

Free PSP Game Downloads Sites - Do They Exist?

Simply, the answer is 'yes', but like most things in life, things are not always so 'simple'.

The PSP (PlayStation Portable) has been out since March 25 2005, and has since then been the best handheld gaming and multimedia device the world has seen. One of the greatest features about the PSP is the ability to download games, movies, music, and other multimedia directly to the PSP.

When it comes to downloading games and movies, there are some choices available to the user. First and foremost, everyone will naturally seek the 'free' option. I do not recommend this option, and I will not be listing any 'recommended' sites for free PSP game downloads. The biggest problem with downloading from these types of sites is that each download is accompanied with bundles of spyware and adware, filling your computer jam packed full of 'em. The second problem is the tremendously slow download speeds, as it can take you anywhere between 3 days to 3 weeks to download a single game. The slow download speeds might not be so bad for those who can't afford the pay sites, but it's definitely not worth sacrificing the functionality and privacy of your computer. Just remember, nothing in life is ever 'free', and, you always get what you pay for (in this case, you pay nothing, and you get a whole heap of stuff you don't want!)

Don't fret just yet! All hope is not lost.

Many safe and reliable sites are now appearing on the net offering fast and friendly downloads of the latest PSP games, movies, music, and more! There are many of these sites, so how do you know which one to choose? Some sites require monthly membership fees while others may charge per download.

Your best bet is to go with a site which offers lifetime access with unlimited downloads for a onetime, non-recurring fee (usually around $35 - $45). This is by far the best option. You do have to pay a little bit, but you get tremendously fast download speeds, new titles as they are released, and secure downloads.
