The moment many PSP enthusiasts have been waiting for – the Alpha release of Yoshihiro’s PSXP v0.1! In the past, it was believed that emulating the Nintendo 64 system was near impossible, yet PSMonkey and StrmnNrmn proved those critics wrong. Well, now Yoshihiro has taken emulation up a notch and has successfully emulated the Playstation released by Sony in 1994 (JP) and over 10 years later we are seeing it being emulated on a portable device!

One of the major aspects of the PSP is that it is stronger than the original Playstation and even comes to a point where many say it rivals the PS2’s graphics. Early this year, Sony announced that they are working on an official PS1 emulator for the PSP that will be released at a later date with a new firmware update. This will most likely come after the PS3’s launch.

Yoshihiro is, once again, breaking the boundaries of the PSP with this new emulator. This emulator is a port of the PC's PCSX so I wouldn't expect speed improvements to happen regularly. There have been several videos of the PSX emulator released in the past few days, many of which seemed too good to be true. However, the emulator is true, and you can test it out on your 1.50 PSP right now once you download it below!
