I was very lucky to find an almost good-as-new PSP 2000 locally. I am very excited about it! It will need a new battery though and it only came with an USB charger. Would appreciate any tips pertaining chargers and batteries. But if you have any gaming related suggestions or general tips I’m open for that too :)

That it’s a great handheld that unfortunately doesn’t have much of its own Identity, what it does have is effectively a mobile PS2 library, which is really fucking cool

What do you mean it doesn’t have much identity? It has a lot of exclusive games! Ratchet and Clank, Secret Agent Clank, Daxter, Patapon, God of War games, MonsterHunter…

I would say it has a ton of identity if you ask me.

Are you sure you haven’t gotten confused and thought about the vita?

May have gotten them confused then idk, I don’t use my vita for much other than emulation and unofficial ports of Android games so idk much about its actual library past the list of my games my girlfriend has put on them (she’s more of a playstation person, I personally am more on the 3ds camp)

You must play Metal Gear Acid. Metal Gear fans at the time hated it because it was a deckbuilding game and not at all what they were expecting, but it’s brilliant. The sequel is okay but they simplified the deckbuilding so it’s not quite as good.

Mod it with a CFW and put a new battery!

That is all you need. The homebrew scene is amazing and so is this console.

I remember back when I had my 3004 mystic silver and messed around so much with CFW, I wouldn’t be surprised if my love for tinkering was significantly due to it :D

I still love the plugin architecture of its OS. The entire device is very well designed from ground up and is really easy to develop for (even without an actual SDK).

It’s no wonder why the homebrew scene was so good.
