I want to buy a PSP or Dingoo and i wanted to ask your opinion of which you think is better.

Here is my criteria of what i am looking for. I like old school games, preferrably games for NES, SNES or SEGA Genesis.

I own a GBA SP and Nintendo DS Lite. I tried to play Sega Genesis (JenesisDS) on my DS Lite and i didn't think the quality was great, there was a lot of choppy images and it wasn't worth playing. My favorite games on JenesisDS were emulated horribly.

With NES games, i used NESDS emulator on the nintendo ds and i thought it was ok on some games, but i like Pocketnes emulator much better, but the games that i really wanted to play, were a little choppy.


For NES, Mike Tyson punchout, tecmo bowl 1 and StarTropics were some of my favorite games of all time and i could find a handheld device that plays those games perfectly, i would be very happy.

For Sega Genesis, RBI Baseball 1 and Tecmo Bowl 1 are my favorite all time games, and i would be happy to know which handheld system plays these games perfectly.


thanks for your input.

A PSP will be a better value in the long run. I can't comment on the Genesis and NES emulation, though I imagine they would be fine. SNES and GBA emulation are top notch too.

PSP all the way. You can emulate those 2 platforms perfectly + a lot of other platforms + PSP games themselves!

Get a PSP if you plan on hacking it. It becomes the best portable emulator aside from the Open Pandora on the market.

Get a go. Ultra portable, 16GB storage and another 16GB with a cheap M2 (sandisk) card added. Super clear and bright screen. The controls are pretty good and I have big hands. Runs emulators and movies superbly.

How is it you are able to put old school emulation on the psp go since its a new model?

I was told that you could only emulate games with psp 1000 and 2000 and not psp 3000, because anything over 6 something software version will not work.

@OP That's old news that you have there. There are hacks all the way up through 6.39 firmware now for every model of PSP available.

I was told this by many gaming stores who do mods and people here locally.

They're wrong. Every PSP is hackable.

tanveer, i looked at the link you provided, only one of the psp 3000's models has a partial hack, the rest of psp models says FULL Hack.

How do i know which motherboard i have, how do i check that? I have a psp 3000 that i wasn't using because i was told it wasn't hackable.

Anything up to 6.39 is hackable as of now.

Check the system info for what firmware you are on. Just follow Rydians instructions/guide.
Very easy and "noob-friendly" wink.gif.
