Wait, did sony come out with an official emulator, or is this just someone's homebrew or hack?

If you don't know, homebrew refers to user created games they are not official licensed by Sony (or whoever made the console). The thing about homebrews is that in most cases, you need to use some hacks to get them to load. Usually these hacks are the same ones you need to use to get pirated games to run.

As I understand it, console makers can't allow homebrews for two reasons, the need to prevent piracy, and the need to make all commercial games license from them (that's how they make their money after all).

It's possible they made an emulator for the PSX games that have been released for PSP and someone hacked it up to make it run other PSX games? Something like that sounds...plausible.

I guess the days are gone of company made high quality emulators :-/ Sega made a Saturn Emu for PC and for a while sold a bunch of Saturn games for PC over a japanese website. Truly a great idea.
 
I tried this on my PSP.
Someone hacked the offical PS1 emulator from Sony and its basically possible to play any PS1 game on the PSP, there is also a converter tool to rip original PS1 games into a format that uses the PS1 PSP emulator.
So you could also play MK4 on it.

MKT looks pretty nice on the PSP screen (it looks better than on a tv), but there is no background music and the D-Pad of the PSP is horrible for fighting games.

I find the D-Pad to be easy to use when I'm playing fighting games... alot easier than the stupid little analog stick/speaker lookin thing
 
well I have it for my psp. It plays better on my psp than my ps1 or ps2. It's really shitty on the ps2. Only thing is the laoding time is the same the loading is fucking annoying. The music works perfectly too.

How much space do these converted PS1 games take on the memory stick?
