@@BobaGotFett Dreamcast was simply awesome.

I had a PSP 1000 as a kid, got it a few weeks after it came out. I loved it to death, and once my dad hacked it for me I had unlimited access to any PSP game I desired. I played it daily, and it was a lifesaver during baptisms and weddings where I would be stuck for hours just sitting at a restaurant table. My cousin spilled Coke on it at one of these weddings, and it got underneath the screen, making the image somewhat brown, but it still worked perfectly for months, until I saved up enough money to get it fixed. Soon after, my mother (thinking I needed to grow out of gaming), gave it to my cousin without telling me, and had a go at me when I insisted I wanted it back. The whole thing left a sour taste in my mouth, and I haven't owned a PSP since. I wasn't sure if I should buy a new one now, but this video convinced me I should get back into it. Thank you for the quality content.

There is nothing better than playing MGS Peace Walker with a friend, in the same room, with just one UMD, switching it whenever someone needs to load data 😅

I have the 3000 version. Still use it to this day. The PSP was ahead of its time. Fantastic machine.

I've had my same psp 1000 since 2008, only changed the battery a few times and played it through part of elementary, middle and high school. I hope one day I can give it to my son or daughter and share with them one of my favorite pastimes!

The second half of your video is what I've been thinking about and trying to discuss with others. An android+gaming hybrid device that had all the PS1, PSP, and PS Vita games available (and games more advanced than the Vita's), possibly with a gaming phone esque setup like the ROG where you can attach and detach the controls. It would be everything the PSP and Vita were but better. And on top of all that, with the benefits of Android, you could also hook it up to a TV for media consumption. Or possibly a computer monitor, keyboard, and mouse to turn it into a basic computer for everyday use (assuming Android one day natively gets a Samsung Dex-like mode).

I was in first grade when it came out I swear its was the same thing as wearing all gucci outfit to school nowdays

I was at a thrift store 2 days ago and I found a silver psp 2000, very nice condition for $25. I couldn't pass it, after buying it. To my surprise. It had a 1gb memory stick and a Namco museum game inside. Overall worth the purchase. I recently hacked it and now play gba games on it.

I have 2 PSP 3000, both in very good condition. Bought them in 2019 and love them. Amazing devices.

Subscribed! Not because of your natural energy and mantra at the end, but because you still have your Motorola Razr like me XD

All around great video u deserved my like and u gained a new subsrciber keep it up dude!

Lots of love back!

I love how much love was put into making this video. The little details regarding a PSP were present even though they are a subtle feature. I love you, you just gained a new sub.

Great video dude, made me love even more my PSP xD

I'm lucky to find a like new PSP on craigslist. Got it for 50 bucks with movies and games. I ordered a spare battery too. Its awesome!

I still have my psp up till this day and it works perfectly just the charger gives some trouble, I got the PS Vita also but for long periods of gaming I had to buy a trigger grip to make it feel like an controller to feel comfortable and I agree with all the points you said in this video

My psp is 15 years old and my son is 7 years and he plays it he loves toy story spiderman sonic my fave mortal kombat Street fighter

Nice video! I really like the way you talked about the psp & it is just missing a phone feature! Instant sub!

I remember when I was a kid, I was super happy when my parent bought me one. I used to play GTA Vice City Stories and GTA Liberty City Stories. It was so much fun! Today, I’m thinking of getting one again. I miss portable gaming and the Switch it’s not for me

Im glad i had this as my first console as a kid, it changed my overall view of games forever. (This is when i also started to play on pc when my psp goes deadbat)

Need for Speed: Most Wanted on PSP for me was the best game that i ever played also WWE. Ow how miss those days.

i do say the psp over all feel is the best hand held i enjoy it when it first came out and now have choose to try and spark that old flame with some brew

I still have my Psp slim,Psp Go and Ps Vita. Good Collection.

yeah i love mine, and still playin it

I can shorten this video down for you. Yes, it's totally worth it. The PSP has some awesome games available for it which you should definitely check out if given the chance.

And for games, it depends what you're into. The PSP library has many different genres and games for all of them. I recommend picking up GTA Liberty City Stories as it's a fully fledged GTA game on the go.

PSP brings many nostalgic memories

I get so much Nostalgia with the PSP I had a Silver 3000 series and it was my MP3 gaming and Web Browser! They were such simple times Sony was way too ahead! I couldn’t believe you could Web Browse with it back in 2004! I though the internet was coming from satellites lol I had no idea about WiFi

I still use my PSP and my Vita. It's a great portable emulation system. The PSP library had a lot of great gems too.

There is several great handhelds like gba, ds light, 3ds, psp,..but one not everyone mentions is the RDP..Retro Duo Portable. The thing literally plays snes natively, and with adapters plays Genesis, nes, gb, gba carts and can be hooked to a TV too.That's quite a bit for a portable. Keep in mind that's physical carts it plays and not emulation. 😁👍

I love it.. I still pick it up & play it

I loved mine, I always thought it was way cooler and more feature packed than my DS. It was so sad when mine broke. Now , I just keep the dream alive with PPSSPP lol

Still have my PSP 2000 And still love it....

I have taken you back up my PSP so now I will start playing it and doing all things wet this is a lot better than my playing games on my cell phone7/31/2020

I use my Vita all the time and still actively collect for it and recently bought a mint psp 1000 model. I only have about a dozen games for it but there are so many to get. It’s perfect for hacking too, something I’ll be doing as soon as I get around too it. I just have a fetish for handhelds and need to get a 2000 model as I think it’s pretty much the best mode. The psp GO if I’m really lucky. Edit: Maybe it is the 3000 I want. I thought the 2000 had the best screen. Oops. I just found a really nice 3000 the other day online. Perhaps I should order it.

The 3000 is the best as it's got a better screen with a wider-colour scheme.

Agreed. I adore my Artic white PSP 3001. It just rocks emulation.

just me who can remember always watching movies on the PSP, like Mr & Mrs Smith

Jeyem Vevo i did bought a 3k model last month and i am very happy with it

Great video. I own the psp go and the psp 2000, I like the go for it's built in memory. I modded it and can play alot of games. Never wanted the 3000

I played on my PSP 2000 for years, with CFW and all the goodies you can get with it. I also got an adapter and put a 128 GB MicroSD card in it giving me a lot of room. Originally it was 2x 64 GB cards, but I then move to a single 128 GB card when I got a new adapter that had a single MicroSD card slot (to Memory Stick Duo). The 128 GB was originally from my phone before I upgrade my phone with a 256 GB, leaving the 128 GB free for something else. I played SNES games on my PSP Emulator a lot and I can also confirm many games did have slowdowns so I had to turn on frame skipping (at least 1). I will say a month ago, I did buy a PS Vita on eBay. I originally wanted a Vita 1000 but they sent me a 2000 and it had issues (the left analog stick didn't work and replacing it didn't help, so I think it was the board itself). I did try various emulators and the GBA and SNES games I tried worked fine without any slowdowns. I know the Vita has a higher clock rate which makes it possible. It was good to know it worked very good on the Vita. I did however end up sending it back as they did lie in the description and with a broken left analog stick (even though they said it "worked great"), I was completely in eBay's return policy of product as not described. I did restore it to the original 3.73 I got it in before sending it back. The point is, while the PSP worked well, Vita also lets you play PSP games as well. Due to the UMD is just hella slow, I backed up my games to the memory card and they load much faster. Trying those same ones on PS Vita, I did see some games have good performance. I remember when I loaded up Jeanne d'Arc, some parts would get dropped frames, at random points on PSP, but on Vita, I think It was a smoother framerate. Not saying everybody NEEDS to go out and buy a used Vita, but it can be a good alternative if you want to play many Vita and PSP games, while also having better emulator performance. Edit: Yes, I know this video was from 2019 and things may have changed from the Vita since then, so you don't need to mention it.

Only 2k subs? Damn boy. I'm a sub.

My PSP-2000 is still my favorite handheld and I still use it today, very frequently, so that it's almost freaky 😅

PSP is the most modern handheld gaming console that’s fully cracked and has a great selection of games.

As someone who were growing up with one I can say It's godamn worth it. Especially how easy you can get Psp isos in the Internet.

Bro I’m not gonna lie, your hands are pretty big. I mean those things are some huge honkers. I thought my hands were big but when you said you get cramps on the vita I was like: “come again my guy?” Good video nonetheless. I am actually considering one of these just because I love my vita but sometimes it can feel like a luxury product (plus I still can’t give it a clear shell).

Ohhhh how much I miss it

I remember it went I was 4year old I feel im the happiest person in the world I remember them all ty 🥰🥰😍

I have mine still and yes it‘s modified and i still use it

I still think the vita is the better system to own. You really stressed how uncomfortable it is, but I’ve only ever had a problem with comfort while using the analog sticks. When I’m using it for retro emulation just using the d pad and face buttons, it’s very comfortable, and it still isn’t that bad to use the analog sticks. There’s a lot of benefits to a vita over a psp. Adrenaline is a homebrew app that just straight up turns the console into a modded psp which runs everything exactly the same as a psp would, so it automatically has more functionality since it can do everything a psp can do plus it’s own stuff. And it can even do some psp stuff even better than a psp would, because of the dual analog sticks for fps games and ps1 games that would need it. Plus it’s way more powerful, so there isn’t really any issues with 16 bit emulation anymore, and there’s even an n64 emulator that came out only a couple weeks ago. It isn’t perfect, but it’s still being worked on and can already run easier to run games like mario 64 and mario kart 64 pretty much perfectly. And then of course there’s the vita library which has some excellent games.

Also if you feel holding the portable console is uncomfortable you can always get an after market grip case. I have one for my ps vita and nintendo switch and it does make a world of difference in terms of comfort when playing games for long sessions.

I just found one on Mercari for $85. In near mint condition. Not bad at all. I always wanted one but never really felt the need to pay so much for it back then.

Good video man.

I love my PSP, although I really hope once a new version of the Switch comes out that I can use my original Switch as my new portable emulator, the Switch home brew is really coming along!

The PSP definitely has better feeling buttons, better dpad, and debatable a better thumbstick than the vita, but the benefits of the vita allowing you to play vita games, having a great screen, better resolution and performance for emulation including PSP games, all make the vita my go to way to play PSP games

I asked for this for Xmas and got it. It’s Boxing Day and I’m watching this. :)

The PSP ROCKS. I own the original 1000 and I prefer to the others. Yes the screen isn't as good but the whole design is better IMHO. I like the thicker style and the UMD drive ejection is so cool. I'm now a Vita fan and use it more but to play games like Y's and other RPGs it is still more comfortable in my big hands.

Has it been 15 years already... Damn XD I still have the PSP 1004 (with the Logic3 speaker) and PSP 2004 laying on my desk :D They're never leaving their proud spot on my there, even though they're mostly just collecting dust :S I think I'm still more impressed by the PSP compared to my current flag-ship smartphone...

Excellent handheld for sure but now trumped by the Vita which I'm loving.

As someone who struggles with neck issues whenever I would want to play a portable game for any period of time, the PSP's ability to plug into a monitor (with the appropriate cables) much like a Nintendo Switch has proven to be a real godsend for me in terms of ergonomics. It also plays just about everything I ever cared about from Sony's back catalogue with respect to the PS1 classics. It's also arguably one of the hardiest handhelds ever made in that you can run it completely independently of batteries (3000 series at least, not sure about the others) if you plug it into a wall, so you can still use it long after your last Li-Ion battery has died. I've never loved any other handheld game console as much as I love my PSP.
