This ONLY works for custom firmware.1. Go to your XMB (the menu of your PSP)
2. Go to System Settings.
3. Go to System Infomation
4. The software version number is the firmware number of your PSP

Check if there is any letters beside the number. If there isnt then it is not a custom firmware. If yes, then you have a custom firmware. If you want more help go too google or go to afterdawn forums and ask some help.

FAQ:
Q: Can this play GB or GBC games ?
A: Not that i know. There is the Masterboy emulator for PSP which can play GBA, GB and GBC games.

Q: The emulator isnt starting ?
A: Make sure you have custom firmware like 3.03 OE,3.71 M33, 3.90 GEN
If, you do have a custom firmware. Check the game kernel.
1. Fully turn off the psp by holding the power button
2. Hold the R button and turn on the PSP
3. This will bring you to the recovery mode
4. Go to Config, then go to GAME kernal. Set it to 3.XX or 4.XX (Where X is the number of your firmware)

Q: Where can I download gba games and roms
A: Use google.They are copyright files so it makes them illegal to share.

Q: Do I need to convert the Rom or such?
A: When you download a rom they should either be in a .zip or .gba format. gpSP can play .zip files with the gba rom inside. However, I recommend that you unzip the game to .gba. No need to convert.

Q: Can I play with my friends that has gpSP with adhoc.
A: Sadly, no. Though the developer of the emulator is working on it.

how save a game

[mynameismrgooey]

@m4ng1e7ust you can use the built-in save state option that it's the emulator. Just go to the menu, i think its the home button, and go to save state.

hey can you upload the file to dropbox

[mynameismrgooey]

@JeffLeong1998 your wish is granted. Please check the info/description bar again.

Ok, could you possibly do a video for dumbass people (me) who understand nothing of what you are talking about? like, what do you mean "custom firmware"? sorry, not very good with computers, or anything really....

[mynameismrgooey]

@spideykoonrulz The psp runs a "firmware" like how PC runs "Windows/Mac" Custom Firmware is a hacked firmware, it lets people to do things which Sony would not liked us to do. It's best to do some research on your own, because I left the PSP-Hacking Scene for 2 years, and my knowledge is outdated.
