This is truly an amazing feat. PS1 is perfect and supports all formats even PBP and PSN store games that aren't activated.
 
Cool it was worth waiting (on PS Vita 3.18 with Tekken2) for this

thanks @Total_Noob for this amazing piece of software!

time to grab out my 3.18 PS Vita again :)
 
it was indeed pretty cool, i was really suprised after TN contacted me yesterday and shows me this release on Wololo :D

I had a go with this last night and it works great and looks amazing. Covers are solid and I like the rumble effect when flipping through games. Glad this is finally out so PSTV users can finally load PS1 titles with sound. Really open up the very limited library of games.
 
This seems like an amazing way to make a mini psx emulation machine. It would be fun to just dedicate a pstv solely for psx emulation. Having one of the best varied and quality library of games in something that fits in the palm of your hand!

Can you play multiplayer via this emulator?
 
not sure about multiplayer (never tried but I doubt it). my pstv is on 3.20 for tnv/tnx; my vita is on 3.60 for henkaku. :)
 
2p works just fine even on an unhacked PSTV for PS1 support. It's neat to use PSP ad-hoc. My kid uses the Vita or PSP and looks at the big screen while we play Calvin Collections with Final Fight and more.
 
Well i'm looking into buying a vita, which do you recommend? The old fat wifi or 3g model. Or the newer slim vita. What is calvin collections?
 
I can tell u that @atreyu187 likes the phat due to the OLED screen. I'm not sure myself, 'cause I've never used the old phat. if u buy a slim, u might buy the borderlands 2 bundle. it's the only American, slim bundle released.
 
Spell check for Capcom collections. The 3g is utterly useless you can't play online with it it's only to check leaderboards or browse the web
 
Well i don't really care about the 3g, the 3g model does wifi as well? I am just looking at different vita's on craigslist and there was a 3g model with a 32gb memory card and very light use for a reasonable price. The slim has the weaker screen but the addition of onboard 1gb memory
 
I'm sorry. I may have been mistaken. that's what I thought he said to me. it's time for pinky sleepy though. have a great night.
