The PSP was released in 2004 and it ran for 10 years until Sony decided to stop manufacturing it to make way for the PS Vita. Nevertheless, Henrik Rydgård, one of the co-founders of the Dolphin emulator created this awesome app that lets you play PSP games straight to your mobile phone. It can be installed on many OS like Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, BlackBerry 10 and Symbian. But on this tutorial, we're gonna focus on Android only because each operating system has different ways of installing and activating PPSSPP. Here is a link to the Github Repository: https://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp. By the way, PPSSPP means PlayStation Portable Simulator Suitable for Playing Portably Let's go ------- # <center> Requirements </center> - Wifi - Computer - Android Phone/Tablet Note that it's possible it might not work on other versions of Android.
