NES emulator for PSP
Got a Sony Playstation PSP game console? Now you can run Nintendo Entertainment System ROMs on it -- just download this free NES emulator.
Although sound isn't included yet, future releases are due to include it soon the author states as well as operability optimization. For usage, copy the EBOOT.PBP to /PSP/GAME and ensure the uncompressed ROMs 64k rank are made the upper limit. Operation method: B- X Button, A- O button.Link (via Waxy)
Update: Alex sez, "all current PSP homebrew only works on 1.0 firmware, which means first wave Japanese PSP's that haven't been patched to the current firmware release, 1.51. ALL US PSP's are currently running 1.5, which requires some sort of digital signature to run executable code, and hasn't been broken yet. In fact, Sony's most recent game releases (in Japan) require you to update to 1.51 either via an update on the game UMD itself or by downloading the update to the PSP unit via WiFi or USB."
Update 2: Breon points out this Super Nintendo emulator for the PSP, too.
