thanks guys for all your input. I am gonna have to think this through. I think i am leaning toward a psp go or psp 1000.

My plan was to eventually give this as a gift to a little kid, someone in our family, once i figured out all the emulation. But what i didn't want was anything difficult for a kid to figure out if this was gonna be a temporary hack.

you should really just try it already lol.
everything is reversible and it's all so simple to do.

They're wrong. Every PSP is hackable.

it's not permanent though, once you turn off the go or 3000 model you have to reinstall again, get a 1000 or 2000 model and the hack stays there forever.

Reinstall implies going through the entire initial setup again. All you have to do to restore the hack is press a single effing button. Don't try to scare Bree off.

Bree, please listen to the common sense here and give that shiny new PSP a chance. Buying an older PSP could introduce more headaches that aren't worth that silly permanent hack. I have a temped hacked PSP3000 and a perm-hacked go and the perm hacked system is no better.

Do this first then the emulation stuff. (this is from rydian's guide)
use PRO b8 when it says "PRO b7"

If you are not yet on 6.39...

Download 6.39 official firmware (for PSP 100X/200X/300X) or (for PSP Go).
http://filetrip.net/f25265-Sony-Official-U...mware-6-39.html
Place the UPDATE folder into /PSP/GAME/ on your memory stick (or the Go's internal storage).
Run the 6.39 update on your PSP and allow it to install.


Now to install the hack!

Download 6.39 PRO-B7
http://filetrip.net/f25616-SIGNED-6-39-PRO-B8.html
Copy the 639PROUpdate and 639FastRecovery folders to /PSP/GAME/ on your memory stick (or Go's internal storage).
Run 6.39 PRO-B Updater on your PSP, and press X to install.
Your PSP should restart into hacked mode. This will last until your PSP is shut fully off (sleep mode is okay). To hack it again quickly, run the Fast Recovery to get back into 6.39 PRO.

When you're done, you can delete the update off of your memory stick, since the hack is stored on the PSP itself and you only need to keep the fast recovery to re-activate it when needed.

what do you mean temporary, what does that mean?

Just means that the hack turns off when you turn your PSP off. The PSP has excellent battery life in Standby mode so this is a moot point.

If you do turn off your PSP, it only take 15 seconds to turn the hack back on again.

Go ahead and update your PSP to 6.39.
Then install this: http://filetrip.net/f25616-SIGNED-6-39-PRO-B8.html

I downloaded this file. What folder do i put this in on the PSP?

[Snailface]

Check your PMs.

snail helped me last night. We installed the emulators and it was getting late, so we didnt finish. NES emulator NesterJ won't open, it says the game can't open, the data is corrupted.

I used the same nes roms that i use to play for my pc, but snail said those won't work, so i used nes roms made for psp. The roms are in unzipped winrar, do i need to zipped the roms?

SNES emulator, i don't see a picture of the snes emulator on the psp yet. It maybe one of the corruped files that has no name.

sega genesis emulator, the emulator opens, but the load new rom to upload the game roms won't open.

i used a different snes emulator and its picture emulator is showing this time, but the game won't load, it says game can't open, data is corrupted.

Super clear and bright screen. The controls are pretty good and I have big hands. Runs emulators and movies superbly.
