Just curious about how they pulled it off and was wondering if they were the first ones to do that. I know other companies made ports like GUN and a few others but I think those were complete remakes rather than ports. Did they make a program that translates ps2 into psp format? or did they just rebuild the games from scratch? They did it with so many games I started to wonder If they had a really simple way of doing it. Tenchu, Armored Core and Fun Shinsengumi-Bakamatsuden are all ports from my understanding. If it happened to be that there was a program and somehow someone aquired it, they could do some amazing things. Someone let me know if I'm swinging at air please.

No way José. This stuff was ported by hand. If it was as easy as dragging a PS2 game into a program, you'd know about it.

Yeah, I've heard how bizarre the tech for the ps2 was. I don't think the psp could handle playing ps2 games.
