PSP Hackers Go Retro - console
(hx) 12:31 AM CEST - Jun,08 2005 - Post a comment
On May 10, sites like PSP Hacker reported that a Japanese hacker known only by the name Mr. Mirakichi had developed a program called RIN that let the PSP play software written for the original black-and-white Nintendo Game Boy system. When it became available, Sony made the version 1.5 upgrade available to users via download, encouraging them to update their systems. Those who did not upgrade are the only PSP users who can run the emulator software, as well as all other PSP "home-brew" applications such as original, user-created games.

Thus, the PSP community in Japan has been divided into users with "virgin" 1.0 PSPs and those with upgraded 1.5 PSPs. Sony is using even more creative ways to get users to upgrade. New PSP games that are being released in Japan, such as Space Invaders Pocket and Intelligent License, inform the user that they will not run unless the firmware is updated. But as Sony tries to stay one step ahead of the hackers, the anonymous programmers are trying some new tricks of their own -- recent reports on PSP Hacker indicate that some coders might be close to getting programs to load on PSPs with the updated 1.5 firmware.
