Top comments mentioning products on r/PSP:

u/ChingShih · 3 pointsr/PSP

A bit of indirect advice:

Size: Memory Stick cards (Pro Duo specifically) come in 4, 8, 16, and 32GB variants, so you'll most likely be looking for a 32GB card.

Speed: There are a variety of speeds out there, depending on the manufacturer, but as the PSP can't read faster than about 10MB/s anyway, you don't need to worry about high-end MS cards that are really designed for digital cameras and computers.

Brands: I would recommend going with a Sony or SanDisk card [1]. However, as with a lot of memory media these days you need to be extremely careful of who you buy from. Flash memory is one of the most commonly counterfeited products on the market and it's very easy for legitimate companies to inadvertently stock counterfeit cards. So whatever card you decide to buy, make sure you test it and see that it performs at the approximate speed indicated and that you have the full amount of space as described on the packaging.

Alternatives to expensive cards: There are also micro-SD to Memory Stick Pro Duo adapters (though they may not be reliable using two cards in tandem instead of one). I've never tried it out on a PSP, but supposedly they work and buying two cheaper micro-SD cards and an adapter might be cheaper and easier to replace in the event that something happens (because ultimately all of these small electronics aren't going to be perfectly reliable).

[1] Sony has more stringent requirements about where they source their memory from, so Sony-branded memory should be above average. SanDisk makes their own memory so they can pick from the best price/performance of their own inventory without having to rely on a memory maker to supply them with reliable parts.

u/Quade321 · 9 pointsr/PSP
  • Yes, it's very easy. This looks like an okay guide.

  • Through an emulator, a popular one is gpSP

  • That's covered in the first answer.

  • MediEvil Resurrection, Loco Roco, Burnout Legends, Patapon, Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep, Me & My Katamari, etc.

  • It uses a memory card called "Memory Stick Duo," these aren't too horribly expensive, but most anyone here would recommend you get a Micro SD to Memory Stick adapter because they're significantly cheaper. Be mindful, the adapter is paper thin and cracks easily. I'd recommend putting in as much memory as you want and never taking it out.

  • If you've yet to hack your PSP, I would recommend either 6.61 ME-2.3 if you have a PSP-100X, or 6.61 LME-2.3 + Infinity if you have a PSP-200X or higher. It's easy to tell which model you have. Be sure to update to the official 6.61 firmware first. Readme files are included in the downloads. Read them, they will explain exactly what you need to do.
u/bobdamnit · 3 pointsr/PSP

Can't say for a Go, but my PSP 1000 and my brothers PSP 3000 both charge off this cable (you can make it yourself, or you can purchase them from Amazon/eBay. I made mine): http://www.amazon.com/Data-Power-USB-Cable-Sony-PSP/dp/B000LEFKXC Don't use the Mini-USB end, instead use the PSP charge port end.

I can verify that as stated, the PSP 1/3000 AC adaptor outputs 1,500mA @ 5v. I can also verify that an LG G2, LG G3, Apple iPad 2, iPad 4, and iPhone 5S charger bricks all output 500/550mA @ 5v. All seem to work just fine to charge the official Sony PSP batteries in both systems. They take longer to charge fully, but they seem to actually charge better and last longer.

My laptop outputs 350mA @ 5v. This does not seem to be enough to charge either of the PSP systems. The light will flash once, then shut off and it will not charge. I'm afraid to leave it plugged in for very long like this because I don't want it frying my USB hub in my laptop. Plugging either into my desktop computer results in the PSP charging just like I plugged it into the power bricks I mentioned.

I have several battery packs for USB charging. Some work, some don't. The Anker 1,000mAh pack I have is one of the few I use dedicated to this because it does work. Its this one (It will output up to 3 amps, so it should do this just fine): http://www.amazon.com/Anker-10000mAh-Portable-Gerneration-Technology/dp/B009USAJCC

Surprisingly enough, one of the cheaper ones I have that does an amazing 5,500mAh works even better and lasts longer. Unfortunately, it was a gift for Christmas in 2014 and all the markings have all worn off so I don't know who makes it anymore. I believe it was an Energizer or a similar cheap brand.

You seem to be mistaking mAh with mA. (Amps.) Usually a mAh is how long its going to take the battery at max draw to dump an amp an hour. You need to look at the max mA output of the battery. Look for one that outputs over 350mA. Prefer the ones that put out more than 1 amp.

u/mac_gillicutty · 2 pointsr/PSP

Also check Amazon for used PSPs. Just last week I found and bought a 2001 for $45. It's in great shape and works perfectly. A couple weeks ago, there was a 2001 for $60 including a 4GB memory stick, charger, case and 2 games. Be patient, check a few times a day and you'll find a good deal.

For games, GameStop seems to be clearing out PSP stock, so they're dirt cheap. Amazon also has good deals on used PSP games, and the owner gets more of your money than if you buy from GS. If you spend more than $10 on anything, you're overpaying.

Finally, if you don't have a memorystick, you can get a MicroSD to MS ProDuo adapter and 16GB of SD cards (2x8GB) for about $15.

This is my first PSP and I'm loving it. You're in for a good time.

u/cowabungatortle · 2 pointsr/PSP

I use this: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B001N2EVPE/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_5?smid=ASYZFN43BVRIG&psc=1

​

I put it in the front pocket of my work bag with headphones/pens/markers/car keys. Screen has a flip up protector as well. It leaves the buttons exposed but I don't have food in that pouch so it's pretty crumb free. This way I just pull it out and play rather than having to fiddle with with a case to put it in and out of. This way I can just leave it protected all the time.

It adds a little bulk to the psp but helps with my hand size. If anything my hands don't cramp up since I've been using it. (another reason why I didn't get the psp go)

u/rdjarvis · 7 pointsr/PSP

Couple of things you need first: A big MemoryStick Pro Duo, or better yet, a MicroSD-to-Memory Stick adapter and a MicroSD card between 32 & 128GB in size ( stay under 128GB to avoid menu lag). Here’s the adapter I used, with a 128GB MicroSD from Walmart:

PSP Memory Stick Adapter, Funturbo Micro SD to Memory Stick PRO Duo MagicGate Card for Sony Playstation Portable, Camera, Handycam https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07F68FCHD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_rk6tDbC8YBTDB

Then you’ll need to install custom firmware. It’s basically installing a modified version of Sony’s operating system, that allows you to run unsigned or unofficial apps and games on your PSP. The best step-by-step guide for doing so, with download links for what you’ll need, is here:

https://hackinformer.com/PlayStationGuide/PSP/DEVICE_PSP.html

Once you’ve got ample storage and custom firmware, you’ll need emulators. I got most of mine from here although in some cases there are newer/better versions available on the respective product github pages or in the forums:

http://wololo.net/emulators-for-the-psp-ps-vita-the-ultimate-download-list/

http://wololo.net/talk/viewtopic.php?t=44039

Installing emulators is usually as simple as downloading with a PC, and extracting the eboot.pbp file and other included/required files & folders from the downloaded archive and onto the PSP MemoryStick into the correct folder location, usually something like “MS:/PSP/GAME/EMULATOR_NAME/“

However, in addition to the emulators, which function as the game consoles you want to play, you will also need the games themselves, which are collectively called roms. These you will need to place in a “roms” or “games” subfolder in each emulator’s folder. Those you’ll have to hunt down yourself, though; the legality of distributing roms varies by region, and may be against the rules to share here.

Once you get all that lined out, you’ll have to figure out each emulator’s controls, options and menu schemes; these are homebrews, that is, apps made by hobbyists and enthusiasts in their spare time. They often don’t have a unified menu structure or common user interface.

But once you get everything figured out, it will be totally worth it.

Edit: reworded homebrew extraction instructions for clarity(?)

u/demodummy · 1 pointr/PSP

I was thinking about buying this one https://www.amazon.com/Sony-PRO-Mark-Memory-Stick/dp/B002L2V8LA/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=memory+stick+pro+duo+psp+sony&qid=1555598871&s=gateway&sr=8-6

I'm hoping I'll have better luck with it. It's significantly more expensive, but again, won't break the bank if I go for it. The only thing I wonder about is it being "Mark 2". Is there anything significant about that?

Also thanks for all your replies, they have been very helpful :)

u/vipertongn · 1 pointr/PSP

how did you increase the memory to 256gb?

Lol i actually found one of your threads on it. I'm curious when people say to format it, but am finding some posts stating you shouldn't format the sd cards on their own. I noticed someone said it's better to format the disks on their own because the psp will tremendously limit the amount of space you'll get. So how should I format it? And what to? are there any particular microsd cards I should purchase?

EDIT:

I found this explanation, let me know if it's missing anything:

Finally...which cfw should I get? the latest 6.61? I ended up getting a psp 2000 for free from a friend

u/studiosupport · 4 pointsr/PSP

Brand new PSP-3000 without any games is $100, so not bad.

While there really aren't any new games coming out for it, there are plenty of exclusives and depending on the types of games your son likes, a cool system to explore.

One of the best things about being new to PSP this late in the life cycle (near the end) is that games are fairly cheap. I managed to get a lot of brand new games for roughly $5 - $15 off amazon.com with free shipping. So while it's certainly not on the cutting edge of gaming, it's a good time to pick it up and experience on the cheap.

u/Crysalim · 5 pointsr/PSP

Are you sure you want it used? Buying it new is still very viable, it has a great price:

http://www.amazon.com/PlayStation-Portable-3000-System-Sony-PSP/dp/B001KMRN0M/

If you still want it used I recommend Amazon. They have the best consumer protection - they will truly bend over backwards for you if you get a used lemon.

u/AntediluvianEmpire · 1 pointr/PSP

I picked up something similar to this on a whim and I have to say, it's been great. I bought San Andreas on the Play store, but I've barely touched it. Instead, I usually use it to play Steam games via Steam Link.

I haven't used it for emulators, since I have the PSP, but I imagine it would work great if you were looking for an all in one solution.

u/JohnEdwa · 1 pointr/PSP

If you want to play PS1 games on a TV, get a PC with an emulator. It will always look much, much better than any of the 'native' solutions, period.

They asked what is the best PSP to play PSX games, and that is the Go, as it's the only one you can pair with a Dualshock. Not because you'd need to "get a dock and play on a TV" (and even if you did, the cable costs $20 on amazon.), but because the Dualshock 'phone' mount exists and it's fucking awesome. They also cost around $10.

But, like I said, if you aren't going to do that, then they are all pretty equal.

u/noname2139 · 1 pointr/PSP

You could ask a friend to help.


But you want to brave it yourself here are the links needed.

In the order in which they’d be needed.

After its done you can google psp iso/rom and add games to play.

Word of advise though. Only do this if you like messing with technology, and this kind of stuff excites you.

Walmart’s website sells new batteries for 12~15.

The out cable can be a trick to find, but amazon is probably the way to go. Also for the memory card, buy a dual SD card one. 128 is super cheap these days and you could fit the majority of PSP games on it.

u/BryanWake · 6 pointsr/PSP

Final Fantasy Tactics is available for the PS3, PSP and the Vita platforms. However, owning a homebrewed PSP gives you access to that game (and all other PSP titles) for free. Also, once homebrewed, the PSP gives you the ability to play Atari, Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, GameBoy and many other older consoles games in the form of ROMS through emulators.


You can pick one up brand new for $99.99 on Amazon if you're interested.


The Vita is very locked down compared to the PSP at the present time. This may change in time, but in my opinion, the PSP is still the way to go for absolute freedom and perks.

u/olivervbk · 4 pointsr/PSP

AFAICT these ones (Cameron Sino) are the best brand you can get

https://www.amazon.ca/1200mAh-Li-ion-Battery-PSP-2000-PSP-3000/dp/B07CRK9P27/

Insten seems to be junk, KMD has mixed reviews. Others are just knock-offs or old/used original batteries.

Probably modding your battery with a cell replacement or even an internal battery might be the safest bet.

​

Would be awesome if there was a voting page on battery preference and durability... I was searching for the same information and got to this post.

u/seifer93 · 3 pointsr/PSP

The build quality on those adapters are all more or less the same. They're pretty cheapy. I initially purchased this one and the adapter cracked after several months. They're cheap enough that I just bought a couple of replacements. I saw an identical one on Canadian Amazon as well.

Note that the one you linked comes with a USB adapter and an SD card adapter as well, so if you don't need those extras it might be cheaper to buy them separately. Look around; in this case, might be better.

About the firmware, you're better off updating. With 6.61 you can get permanent CFW using Infinity. Also, the adapter you linked should work just fine on 6.61 despite what the product page says. The changes between 6.60 and 6.61 are basically non-existent.

The PS Store does not still work on PSP anywhere AFAIK. If you want to make a purchase you'll need to do it on another device then transfer it to your PSP either through Media Go on PC or through a PS3.

The security settings are just a parental control. AFAIK, there's nothing like a lockscreen for the console. To configure the parental controls, try 0000; it's the default. If not, you can reset the passcode by doing a factory reset of the console. Just go to settings > system settings > restore default settings. Wait for the system to restart, go to the security settings, enter 0000, and turn off parental control. I just looked at my console and it was set to level 9. For some reason, I never changed it, but it has never interfered with anything I've tried to play.

u/JoeyBlaze · 3 pointsr/PSP

I just recently got one from Ebay, you can try there. I'm sure the preowned from Gamestop are fine as well.

As far as memory..my recommendation is to pick up (2) of these http://www.amazon.com/Sandisk-16GB-MicroSDHC-Memory-Class/dp/B001F7AJKI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1334935355&sr=8-1
and (1) of these http://www.amazon.com/MicroSD-MicroSDHC-Adapter-Converts-Cards/dp/B001RPEJA4/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1334935402&sr=1-1
this will work great in the PSP 3000 and will save you alot of money as compared to just getting a 32gb pro duo card.

u/Tag365 · 1 pointr/PSP

If you need a Memory Stick with more storage and have 30 dollars left over, consider buying this 128 GB Micro SD Card at https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-128GB-microSDXC-Memory-Adapter/dp/B073JYC4XM/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=SD+CARD+128+GB+SANDSIK&qid=1558658866&s=electronics&sr=1-2-spell (Make sure to get it shipped by Amazon and not some other retailer for maximum chance of getting an official and not counterfeit card) along with a Micro SD Card to Memory Stick Duo adaptor like https://www.amazon.com/Funturbo-MagicGate-Playstation-Portable-Handycam/dp/B07F68FCHD/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=PSP+Memory+Stick+Adaptor&qid=1565311107&s=electronics&sr=1-3 to allow it to fit inside the PSP, and be patient while it tests your SD Card. Use h2testw to verify that the SD card is legitimate before using it in the PSP system. Counterfeit cards will show "The media is likely to be defective." on h2testw along with a large amount of bytes next to the word "DATA LOST."

u/duncanyoyo1 · 4 pointsr/PSP

For the guides, Wololo is a great resource. They have tons of information. Or just google it.

For the 2000's you'll want to update to 6.61 and then use Davee's 6.61 Infinity. There are ton's of guides for installing it, and it is pretty straightforward.

For memory, use this and slap in a 64gb or 126gb microSD card

For batteries I bought 2 of these

So far they have been good, and I get about 5-6 hours of use, depending on what I am doing / playing.

One of them messed up the first time I put it in the PSP but I got in contact with the company on Amazon and they shipped me another no questions asked.

And you will only really need a pandoras battery if you want to use TimeMachine ( boot a different firmware than what is installed on your NAND ) or somehow brick one of the PSP's ( pretty hard to do if you are careful )

But do note, that the batteries I listed cannot be used as a pandoras battery ( they have a fake PCB that does not correctly read a serial number / can't be written to ) So you will have to find an original if you want a pandoras, or one of the ones sold specifically as a pandoras.

Edit: Formatting, and more information

u/PartyClass · -1 pointsr/PSP

You should just get something like this.

​

It's a Sony Memory Card shell that you can insert a microSD into. No need for solder. Works great, supports up to 64 gb, other ones might support more. Get 64 gigs for under $20

u/fuckthisusername5000 · 1 pointr/PSP

I have a question though, would he ever consider using this MS PRO DUO adapter so that we could use 2 micro SDs? This is great though, I am definitely interested in this.

u/suckingalemon · 1 pointr/PSP
  1. Sure. Look up a YouTube video. Cool custom housing options are available.

  2. Not sure about this as I own a 1000 and have actually never held a 3000. Regardless, there isn't much you can do about it.

  3. You could try this. It would allow the PSP to see both memory cards as one.

  4. I think that's a game dependant thing. Pretty sure the PSP digital Store has been closed though.

  5. I've never bothered with one. I just use the official little pouch thing.
u/thee_i_cast_aside · 1 pointr/PSP

Here is the one I used along with 2 64gb cards. I fuckin love it.

One thing to remember, put one card in the a slot at a time, format that card through your PSP, then format the other card in that same slot you previously used. I think after all of that, I put both cards in, and had to do one more format. Good to go!

u/titanicninja · 3 pointsr/PSP
  1. As long as its a memory stick duo it should work. Even adapters like this work: http://www.amazon.com/MicroSD-MicroSDHC-Adapter-Converts-Cards/dp/B001RPEJA4/ref=sr_1_26?ie=UTF8&qid=1335798672&sr=8-26

  2. The main advantages are that you can run homebrew, emulators, and pirated games... its very simple to do and there are lots of tutorials around. Here are a couple really good guides:

Mhm that’s why. I’ll provide the links below to the two things you need. First, I’ll give you the link to the SD card I bought. You don’t need this if you already have a micro SD card you want to use. Now the important thing is this adapter. It allows you to put in a micro SD and put it in the psp.

Here is another adapter where you can insert two micro SD cards and it will combine them, if that’s something you are interested in. It’s a bit overkill, but that’s what some people want!

u/minimalistical · 7 pointsr/PSP

You'll want one (or more) of these paired with a couple of 16GB microSD cards. It costs about $25 to get 32GB of space as opposed to about $75 for a 32GB MS Pro Duo card.

You can also get this which is just one of those adapters with two 16GB microSD cards included. The availability and prices change on Amazon all the time, so just search for "ms pro duo microsd" to see what the current best deals are.

I think its worth trying an adapter especially if you already have spare micro sd cards already. I have this one and it works well for me. Duo adapter

I also got a couple of these and the one I have tried so far worked fine as well. duo adapter from ebay

I really like my GO for travel, but M2 sucks and the 3000 is really a much better gaming experience. The chiclet buttons on the GO kind of suck and if you have normal human-sized hands, it's hard to hold. With softmods and CFW, you can do a non-permanent on just about any motherboard now. 3000 was three steps or so. Easy. There's no weird storage splitting (GO has onboard and M2) so you don't have to move around your saves or plugins. With a 3000, you can get dual and single memory card adapters. I have both and they work. You can go up to 128gb now, I think, but it's slow if you go that high. 32gb is easy and fast.

3000 has fewer emulation issues. I find that my GO has dumb random bullshit that for some reason crashes the unit with some SNES games. Even scrolling in the menu causes crashes ONLY on the GO.

IMHO, 2000 is best, but 1000 feels best in my hands. 3000 is okay, GO is really great for travel because it's so compact.

u/emoinatuxedo · 1 pointr/PSP

When it read the 27GB was that with the 32GB card or a 64GB card?

Yeah it may be a dud. I've never owned a Cr5400, just generic ones, but it's possible to exceed 64 GBs, I myself have dual 128GB cards working. Here's the adapter I'm currently using.

Also here's my general spiel on adapters:

  • To get the PSP to recognize two cards: format both cards in the adapter with the PSP ('System Settings'/'Format Memory Stick'), then swap the cards and format again (may require one more swap and format).

  • After loading files onto the cards, don't swap them as you could corrupt your data.

  • You won't have the advertised speeds of the mSD cards while transferring via the PSP (It'll most likely cap around 6-7 mbps).

  • You may want to buy more than one adapter since they break easily.

  • You'll experience slow down when booting up or opening large folders (the larger the card(s) the longer the boot up) [NOTE- you won't experience slow down when booting or running games]. Additionally you'll experience slowdown when booting up Homebrew that looks at the entire PSP directory (e.g. PSP Filer).

    To help mitigate boot up time, go to the 'recovery menu'/'configuration' and enable 'hide pic0 & pic1.png'. Additionally try using GamesCatagoryLite and go to 'system settings'/'Catagory mode' and change it to contextual.

Actual memory sticks are going to be almost impossible to find in a physical store, and if you did find them they are going to be very expensive for very little storage space. You should get a micro SD card adapter and a micro SD card, they are much cheaper and can hold a lot more games on them. This is the one I use and it works perfectly. Just make sure that you get a large SD card and leave the adapter in the PSP, they can be brittle. You can use a USB cable to transfer games onto the PSP.

u/haojiezhu · 1 pointr/PSP

Have you tried mounting you PSP (with both cards in adapter) on a Windows computer as a USB drive with mini-USB cable and then formatting it with FAT32 Formatter (http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm)? This is how I got rid of a bunch of garbled files that take up a huge amount of space on a 2x128GB setup.

If this still doesn't work properly (it should show ~239GB free space after formatting), it's probably the problem with the RAID chip used in adapter. These knockoff adapters use all sorts of chips with different compatibility. Some people reported their adapters only support 32GB. You should try a different adapter if nothing else helps. This is the one I use with only one seller on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/UCEC-Micro-Memory-Stick-Adapter/dp/B06XHPS43Q

u/the_settlements · 3 pointsr/PSP

If it says pro-c in the system information after turning the system on (not from sleep mode) then it's permanent.

What the CFW does is allow you to use homebrew apps and games as well as pirated games (which is obviously not condoned, but who listens to us?) There should be instructions online on how to put homebrew apps and games on the PSP. Last i done it, it was a basic drag and drop between folders.

As for the memory you can use any Pro-Duo if it's a PSP and M2 if it's a PSP Go. There's also Pro-Duo adapters that allow you to use 2 MicroSD cards in it. Probably the best way to go since the max Pro-Duo card out there, I believe, is 32GB.

This is literally the first result on Amazon for psp usb. Works great for charging. You only need to plug in usb to a charger and the barrel jack to the psp. The mini usb won't be plugged into anything.

u/duxdub · 2 pointsr/PSP

If you want to use MicroSD cards on the PSP, you have to purchase a Memory Stick Duo to MicroSD card adapter. It's cheap and costs $6. Plus, it ships directly from an Amazon fulfillment center. Here's a link to the one I bought:

https://www.amazon.com/MicroSDHC-Memory-Stick-Non-Retail-packaging/dp/B00176F2RC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1500565907&sr=8-3&keywords=memory+stick+duo+adapter

After that, just insert your microSD card into your adapter, put into your PSP and format it. Voila!

As for the MicroSD card I use, I purchased a 16 GB Samsung EVO MicroSD card a few years ago. It still works great. I definitely recommend purchasing a Samsung MicroSD card, BUT ONLY UP TO 32 GB!!!! THE PSP WILL NOT ACCEPT LARGER SIZES.

u/jazzberry76 · 1 pointr/PSP

Good to know, thank you.

This is the one I got: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D4LP7E6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1


It seemed to have the highest percentage of decent reviews. I guess we'll see.

u/Twofoe · 1 pointr/PSP

The Go requires an M2 memory card, which maxes out at 16gb from what I've read, giving a combined maximum of 32gb. Non-Go PSPs, on the other hand, can use one of these these babies along with a couple of standard micro-SDHC cards, for a combined maximum total of 128gb.

I got a couple of 32gb cards, so now I'm rolling with 64 gigs of space.

u/LeaveItToTeaver · 1 pointr/PSP

I got this one and used a Samsung 32GB SD card. It's a tight fit for the SD card so I'd suggest getting a dedicated card just for this (as in, you may not be able to get the SD card back out of the adapter).

u/JokerZ2323 · 1 pointr/PSP

it only came with the usb cord, which has no markings. It's alright though, I found the amazon page for it, and it looks like it's a common problem. It's the voltage. Thanks for the help!

u/JamesSDK · 1 pointr/PSP

I checked my email history, I bought the battery in 2017 and it was called Fosmon LVL 6 Efficiency Replacement Battery for PSP 1000.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it is for sale anymore for PSP on Amazon (though they do have 2000/3000), sorry :-(

I haven't had to buy a PSP battery since then so you will have to do a little homework but this one seemed to be the highest rated on Amazon for PSP 1000: https://www.amazon.com/SONY-PSP-1000-1001-capacity-Rechargeable/dp/B00D4LP7E6

I love my PSPs and so do my sons... I am going to be so upset if one day batteries for my 1000 and 3000 are no longer available.

u/BatterymanFuelCell · 1 pointr/PSP

Unless you're comfortable using a soldering iron and playing with batteries/wiring I suggest getting one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Data-Power-USB-Cable-Sony-PSP/dp/B000LEFKXC and a USB battery bank.

u/Tempest123 · 3 pointsr/PSP

Your in luck. Amazon is currently having basically half off micros sd cards.
Order this and this and you will have 32gb storage with room to grow for about 30 dollars.

u/zobu312 · 1 pointr/PSP

That's possible. Do you have a local game store that you are chummy with? You can take the adapter there to see if it is working, assuming they sell PSPs.

You can also invest in something like this; https://www.amazon.com/Sony-PSP-Data-Power-USB-Cable/dp/B000LEFKXC

And use a phone power brick to charge your psp. Something like a 5 V 1500ma, or a 2000ma should work. If you have a Samsung phone charger, that will also work.

u/BadDecisonDino · 1 pointr/PSP

nah but it's definitely different than the normal pspk series cables.

u/Kyzachable · 2 pointsr/PSP

The PSP does not take SD cards, and that’s why it does not fit. The PSP uses a unique memory stick called “Memory Stick Pro Duo”. So you need a micro SD to Memory Stick Pro Duo adapter. I recommend either of these two as they both work for me.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00176F2RC?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf

This one has duo slots so you can put two micro sd cards in it for more storage.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007EHLFCE?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf

For the guest WiFi, I think it depends on what router you have. I do not think all routers offer this feature. Mine is a NetGear. You can also try changing your router from WPA 2 to WPA and see if it will work on your PSP then, but I wouldn’t keep it that way because it lowers your WiFi’s security. You change this by going to your router’s Web-Based start up page.

u/orphanitis · 2 pointsr/PSP

I'm pretty darn sure cutting a memory card down to size would just destroy it. You're going to need some kind of memory stick to put in there if you want to play downloaded games or install cfw. You can get a standard memory stick for the psp, or you can get the microsd to memory stick duo converter. Amazon link.

u/evilgold · 2 pointsr/PSP

Not on a USB stick, however you can use a cheap adapter to play games on a micro SD card instead of having to buy Sony's over priced junk.

This is the one I use. If you search amazon you can also find sets that include the adpater, a microsd card and a USB reader all in one for less than the cost of an 8gb memory duo.

u/Death_Masta187 · 4 pointsr/PSP

So decided to dig out my old psp slim and mess around with it again. I could not find any info online about using anything bigger than a 64GB MicroSD working at all so I figured id give 128GB card a go. If it didn't work then Id just have a new 128GB card to use in my Nintendo Switch.

I have a psp 2000 flashed to 6.60ME-1.6 (I have not even checked to see if there is a new CFW since this version)

Bought this microSD to memstick pro duo - https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00176F2RC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

and this microSD - https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B073JYC4XM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I used gparted in Linux (this is just what I run as my OS) to delete the exfat partition and recreated it as fat32.
I see no reason why disk management in windows (and what ever apple uses) as well to delete/recreate the partition as fat32.

Once I put the card into my PSP is said the card could not be used and needed to be formatted. so I let it format. Once it was done it reported all the correct free space. copied over all my iso and games run just fine. from me testing load times in GTA:VCS went from 26.56s to 31.41s on the new SD card. Also most psp takes a few more seconds to boot. but I suspect that's because I have 11x the number of games on the card. overall a few seconds added to load times is worth having over 120GB more space.

Edit: Ignore the date and time being way off in the picture. My original battery had swelled and so I took it out. I was just to lazy to keep setting it every time I plugged back in the charger. Thankfully the 1800mwh sony battery I used as a pandora battery(just found out you could turn it back into a normal battery. haha) looks fine and still holds a change (I used double sided tape to hold the bigger battery in place and got almost 6 hours in gta-lsc before it needed to be charged). just waiting on an extended cover so I can use it fully.

u/TwitchingDed · 1 pointr/PSP

By a large micro sdhc memory card. Then by a memory stick adapter for it.

For example:

You can buy these

SanDisk Ultra 32GB UHI-I/Class 10 Micro SDHC Memory Card Up to 48MB/s With Adapter- SDSDQUAN-032G-G4A [Newest Version] https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00M55C0NS/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_.wpavb12VJP9B

MicroSDHC to to Memory Stick Pro Duo (Bulk Static Package) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00176F2RC/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_uypavb0N1X03B

This will give you a good start on storage.

I have this memory card adapter with 32+64GB SD cards.

The regular charger and Sony battery that comes with the PSP should be good enough. Most batteries you find are aftermarket junk and lots of people have bad luck with them.

I also have one of these coming in the mail soon. It fits 2000 and 3000 models only.

u/bandit2 · 1 pointr/PSP

Ignoring price, would it be better to use two 16 GB cards simultaneously or one 32 GB card and one empty slot?

Also, is there any difference between the adapter you linked and this one?

Thank you so much!

u/KerooSeta · 1 pointr/PSP

Here's one for $6 with free shipping on Amazon Prime. It only takes one micro SD card, but that should be all you need based on your post.

I have this $8 one that uses two micro SD cards, but I haven't come anywhere close to actually needing the second card (I think I've used about 8 GB and have two 64 GB cards in it).

These cards can sometimes be cheaply made and fall apart, but if you're not switching it in and out all the time, that shouldn't really matter much.

u/dedsmed · 2 pointsr/PSP

Here's the way I ended up doing it:

I bought The adapter

and a 32gb card

That way down the road if I want to I can add another 32gb card to get 64gb of memory.

It's the same price (actually slightly cheaper) and you have future chance of upgrading to the max memory.

u/Blitzed97 · 1 pointr/PSP

Went on amazon, the white adapter is an add on item, meaning they will ship only with orders over 25 Dollars, but you can find others that will ship by itself just fine, I got the black one, it's 5.50, I just bought two 64 GB Micro SD cards with it and it shipped with them.

Search Micro SD dual Adapter, It comes in black and white.

oh, also i'd recommend grabbing one of these. i popped two 16gb microSDs in mine, and 32gb seems like JUST the right amount of space for the psp. 64 would be ridiculous, but still, i understand it will work with two 32gb microSDs.

u/DaAmazinStaplr · 2 pointsr/PSP

PSP 1000's, 2000's, and 3000's all take Memorystick Pro Duo's. Most people use the Photofast Dual MicroSD adapters which look like this.

I'm not sure if there's a limit on the size cards you can use on it, I have 2 32GB micro's in mine (64GB total), but some others in the subreddit have 2 64's (128GB total).

u/ChefBoyAreWeFucked · 1 pointr/PSP
