I accidently stumbled upon this devolment for psp slim:
http://www.psp-hacks.com/file/1466
Fusa will allow you to connect your psp slim to old tv's or new HD tv's as long as it can display a NTSC output.
It will display psp games, Psx games and hombrew, emu's ect in fullscreen! and it runs fast, no slowdown!
I've tried it with pspuae fullscreen on my Samsung 32" HD and its nice to have the option of a nice big screen to play those amiga games, not to mention, those old mame and psx and psp games!
just thought I'd share it with you if you missed it ;)

PSPUAE AMIGA BIGSCREEN nice ;)
PS: if you have a nice little 14" TV sat in your attic gathering dust, buy a psp composite or component cable (both work) hook up your slim and play your amiga games fullscreen on pspuae.
Probably much nicer than a huge screen because it wont stretch the graphics as much :)
-
Yeah spotted this a while ago.. useless to me though as I'm still sticking with my oldskool phat(if it aint broke don't fix it and all that lol). ;D
To be honest though whats the point in a portable device hooking up to a tv? ...just use your existing games consoles or a pc for emulation etc on the big screen! ???
-
Nice when kids and missus are out to indulge in a bigscreen experience!
Plus the fact is, you can have fullscreen now AMIGA, PSX, PSP, SNES, MAME, ATARI, SPECCY, NES, ATARI ST, C64, NEOGEO, ATARI 2600, 800XL, all in the palm of your hands, one wire to connect to TV! no joysticks, all very tidy indeed.
I've got the xbox 360 and ps2 consoles under Tv, they wont get emulated on psp slim, I dont want all those other consoles unde my tv :) lol
Oh, and of course you can just disconnect and go portable if you like lol :o
I think it's a great development, been praying for it myself ;D
Lets face it, the old phatty is getting left behind baboon, you might aswell upgrade to a DS-lite mate! lol :o
-
if i want full-screen, i'll plug my a1200 in ;)
at least then its full-screen, full-speed with sound, smooth as silk and with no emulation glitches!
-
I just knew you'd say that ::)
Bah, go and link up your DS-Lite wi fi with baboon and play pokeman together! lol :D
if we dont have an Amiga, then this could be the next best thing! with fullscreen tv out, ;)
I upped a video for you horace: grab that iso and play fullscreen, wont run on your amiga 1200 yet though :o

-
well not being an amiga game, of course it wont - so what kind of a counter-argument is that??
however, i can guarentee my a1200 plays amiga games flawlessly unlike the TOPIC which is about playing pspuae on a tv :P
-
Delta, I modified your post, cause you said things your not supposed to, you naughty boy, ;).
-
Aye, ok then I think I know what you meant FOL ( bit chilly man ;) this topics dead anyhow, seems I might aswell keep this sort of topic to myself as nobody's that intrested - period. thats me told :P

I would be if my phat could do TVOUT, ;).
-
i would be interested if PSPUAE was fast enough to be close to my A1200.
-
I'd be interested if someone donated me a slim. lol
-
bah, your all tight arses, why not sell your phat's on e-bay, advertised as homebrew enabled, I'm sure you'd get a hundred quid or even more with 2 gig memory card.
Then put the money towards the other 30 quid you need to get a brand new slim, it wont cost that much to upgrade.
you sound like my old fella, I'm going to stick with my betamax VCR and my tape cassettes, its tried and tested ::)
change or die, like the dinosaurs! :o
-
or just wait for a v3 PSP ::)
-
Aye, with a 999htz processor and 512mb ram and a 500gig hardrive, duel anologues, dolby surround sound, tv out, touch screen, 12 hours battery life, runs ps2 iso's ect. 8)
might cost you 350 quid though! lol, the slim is very cheap and will be cheaper when the v3 is released.
come on guys, blow them moths from your wallets and dig deep :D
-
or just wait for a v3 PSP ::)
Or save your dosh for the up-coming Pandora handheld that should be a homebrew dream with its top specs! ;D

-
AAAAAAAAAAAAAgggghhhhh.........it's horace's DS-lite, its finally arrived! lol
looks like it cost 20p from that picture! lol
Seriously - yeah pandora should be a little powerhouse portable Pc, 200 quid for a mini laptop really (disguised in a DS-lite Clam shell) should be good, think FOL should start coding PSPUAE MKII PANDORA :o
-
Chill out everyone - maybe we won't need to buy the Pandora... ;)
-
Or save your dosh for the up-coming Pandora handheld that should be a homebrew dream with its top specs! ;D
if a complete lack of commercial games, and a limited size userbase is your thing, then yeah, go for it.
i might get one when they crash in price.
@ delta, i was thinking more the leap from psp fat (v1) -> slim (v2) -> slimmer? (v3) rather than anything with any extra cpu power or anything.

Aye, seems everyone gives the phat a hard time. Its not the specs of the psp holding it back (as such) but the coding. All the emu's are ported, as in not specifically made for PSP.

Very true.
Although on the psp I havent properly played a commercial game for ages now! There just isn't that many class A titles out there! :( ...if it wasnt for the emulators than my machine would have been sold ages ago. I'll defo be sticking with my phat machine - well unless all homebrew devs suddenly decide to crap on the phat and all go down the slim route (very doubtful though lol).
I guess if all you want is amazing emulation than nothing will even come close to the proposed specs on pandora. Only time will tell what homebrew/emu's will be on it though...
-
I hope the Pandora will be made of durable materials and have great controls.

Well from the screen shot it currently looks like something from 'Toys R Us' thats been made by Fisher Price! lol
Hey sorry for taking another thread off topic! ....I still think the psp Slime tv-out is gay though. :P
-
I agree with Baboon, the amount of garbage titles out for psp proves that the psp is seen as second grade console and is low priority to the major software houses, with the exception of killzone liberation!
I have an 8 gig pro duo and its only full with PSX, GBA, AMIGA, SNES, MAME, ATARI ST, C64, 800XL, ATARI 7800, NES, NEO-GEO games. without all that I'd sell my psp's to!
The pandora will take some time to capture the market, which it may never do anyway, even if it is a success, it wont be easy to get hold of for the next 6 months anyway, there will only be 100 in circulation this month for Devs for bug fixing and testing, then a further 3000 for anyone who preorders, first come first serve basis. if 120,000 people want one, thats a huge backlog!
I cant see it being easy to pick one up for the next 6-12 months, I'd be very surprise if you can pick one up easilly for x-mas 2008.
Keep your little black friend handy for now ;)
Baboon - until you get a slim, you will always have to but up with an heavy, cumbersome , quite sounding, small screen output, short battery life, badly positioned memorycard slotted psp lol :P

i used to think that, but now i find myself really enjoying; OutRun 2006, LocoRoco, Gottlieb Pinball, Williams Pinball, GTA:LCS , GTA:VCS, Taito Legends, Battlefront: Renegade Squadron.
that's more than enough to warrant not selling my PSP
@ delta - show me one system that ISNT loaded with 'garbage titles'?
does anyone know anyone not from the internet who has even heard of the GP2X, let alone own one? because i cant name a single person. The Pandora is unlikely to be any more successful than that, especially since it looks like a ZX-Spectrum (which was great in the 80s, but hardly cutting-edge for 2008)
i happen to like design and style, as well as functionality.

My point was that the psp is littered with poor remakes and poorly ported titles from other consoles, not much thats original or ground breaking, I still think the PS-2 is the best console ever.
games like Shadow of Colossus, Resident Evil 4, Mercenaries - playground of destruction, Champions of Norrath, GTA III, God of war, all original ps-2 classics, most still being ported to the next gen consoles.
The PSP has a very limited number of quality titles, its been around since early 2005 now and should have lots of quality titles to choose from, instead we can count the number on one hand >:(
the ps-2 has a few hundred in my opinion ;)
I'd like to try before i buy a pandora, not convinced it will be a quality buy :-\
-
i dont understand what you expect from a machine tht is no more powerful, but can fit in your hand?
obviously the games are largely going to be re-workings of what has gone before, but the same can be said of the PS2. The PS1 had already been there and done that.
I cant think of much innovation on the PS2, and the system was littered with re-hashes and re-labelling of all the old series... be it Res Evil, FIFA, Tony Hawk, GTA.... they all got run into the ground, and I will stand by the fact i have nearly as many PSP games now as i did unique PS2 games. The PS2 was one of the most overflooded markets of crap games i've ever seen.
and i dont have 8 fingers on one hand to count my fave PSP titles on btw delta. Although i wont deny i think the machine -should- have a lot more good titles on it, i blame the state of gaming today rather than the machine itself or Sony.... picking the PS2 as a 'better example' doesnt really hold up to much close examination if you ask me.
-
you can add an extra finger to that hand, Killzone liberation is the only class game on PSP.
some classic retro games could breath life into the psp, I'm sure the psp spec should cope with these classics:
X-com terror from the deep
Ultima VII - the black gate
Ultima underworld
Wing commander
System shock II
C&C gold
Stronghold
Dungeon master II
Sundog - the frozen legacy
Lords of the realm
Corporation
Defender of the crown
Megatraveller - quest of the ancients
syndicate
surely with updated graphics and sound, these games could be reworked and made brilliant again on psp.
looks like duke nukem is being worked on for 2009 ;)

Delta, C&C is already on PSN Network, I have already downloaded it, ;).
-
I converted the psx version of C&C 12 moths ago with icetea 1.3, thats not C&C gold its rather an awful psx conversion, that runs way to fast, just like psx Red Alert. awful gameplay conpaired to C&C95 or C&C gold on a 486/33 PC
I'd rather they didn't bother, if all remakes/conversions are going to be that bad.

Your, obviously not sure on games history, it was made for PSOne first. I also disagree, its much better on PSOne that crappy PC, :P, so there, ;).

I was the guy who reworked all 13 GDI & 13 NOD missions to make it a much harder and better game using CCMAP.
I know my C&C, the psx is bobbins! :o
look who's top! :P

To be honest out of those I only enjoyed Syndicate. Has to be the Amiga or at very least the PC version (what the heck did they do the MD/SNES one eh?). Most of those other games I just find incredibly dull to be honest though Wing Commander had some nice music at least.
I'm gonna stick up for the PSP as out of all the game consoles I've owned I've probably bought the second most amount of games for it and enjoyed everyone I bought. Only my PS2 collection takes up more room on my shelves.
For example I enjoy various sequels on the PSP such as GTA VCS, GTA LCS, God of War - Chains of Olympus, Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops, Burnout Legends, Ratchet & Clank - Size Matters, Daxter, Ridge Racer 2 and both Syphon Filter games.
I've enjoyed plenty ports which have usually been either as good as the best home version or in some cases even superior. The Warriors is one of my all time favorite video games and while I already own it on PS2, I was happy to purchase it again for PSP because it's identical and not turned into some barely recognisable piece of crap that just bears the name such as it likely would on the GBA or the DS so now I can now play it wherever I like. Medievil Resurrection was good too. As were Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max (the most complete incarnation of the game available), Guity Gear Judgment (includes Guilty Gear XX #Reload too, the Judgment scrolling beat em up game is PSP exclusive I think), Virtua Tennis 3, PowerStone Collection (making my Dreamcast almost redundant), Lego Star Wars 2, Castlevania - Symphony of the Night and so on. Again the big advantage being I can take these and go play them in a nice quiet place like the park rather than try to get through the games here in the noisy flat. I would say there's not been enough original games on the PSP but I've still found ones I enjoy a lot like Dead Head Fred and heck I even sorta enjoyed Final Fantasy - Crisis Core and I usually despise the Final Fantasy games with a passion.
I got a friend who likes almost a totally different selection of games mainly consisting of strategy rpg things like Jean De Arc (think that's what it's called at least), and Monster Hunter G and puzzle games like Puyo Puyo and Crush. And she likes stuff like Patapon and Locoroco (can't stand either one myself but that's what variety is for)
The PSP is pretty much my main games console at present. I don't play anything on PC these days bar the odd indie game now and then (I loathe commercial PC games). And the PS2's usually switched on for those games I don't have on PSP and obviously for easier multiplayer. Just annoys me when people say it's got no good games, cos I sure ain't had all that much trouble finding plenty PSP titles to get and take about with me.
Think the only purchase I hated was Mega Man Powered Up. Now I normally like Mega Man and Maverick Hunter X was a fairly decent remake... but Powered Up is so sickenly cute I nearly vomited on my PSP. That's the only PSP game I've taken back to the store and traded in.
