5 Releases That Would Be Awesome

June 16th, 2007, 22:10 Posted By: wraggster

Since the PSP Homebrew scene began (we were here a year before the scene) we have seen some excellent releases that number over 1000 by some of the very best coders in the Emulation, Homebrew and Hacking Communities.

Does this mean that the PSP is over the hill and not as exciting as it once was, the answer to that is a big no, yes the homebrew releases have slowed down compared to the craziness of up to 15 releases daily (which believe me was damn hard keeping up with) but theres still so much to do on the PSP.

Heres some items that would be great to see worked on or indeed released for the first time.

PS1 Emulation

The Custom firmware which has a hack of Sonys PS1 Emulator is all well and good but to have a fully legit and full speed PS1 emulator would be a killer release. (The release of PS1P and Yoshis PS1 emulator broke our members online records on those days.)

Nintendo 64 Emulation

StrmnNrmn continues to work on the N64 emulator for the PSP and is now the main emulator project on the PSP. Full speed and major compatability is a dream we are seeing unfolding before our eyes.

Map This Supporting Tom Tom and Others

This is something i dont know is possible but if Deniska`s excellent Map this program for the PSP`s GPS Receiver could support GPS apps such as Tom Tom then it could be awesome for the PSP Scene, unless Deniska himself releases an Homebrew version of Tom Tom/Co pilot ?

A PSP Unbricker

The news of Sonys PSP Unbricker being released onto the internet has caused a major stir, the investigation on how to unbrick and maybe an hardware release of amateur unbricker kits could be a future release with software to accompany it.

PSP Downgraders

The last firmware to be easily downgradeable was v2.80 and if your lucky then v3.03 (with unpatched GTA LCS GAME) but a new downgrader for consoles up to the latest firmware without the need for a certain game would be awesome.

Thats just a few of the things i would like to see anyone got their faves then answer via comments.
