i never really wanted one of these (or a ds) until yesterday, when i found out you can put emulators on em.
anyone have one, put emulators on em, or anything? can you put like PS1 or PS2 emulators as well?

through firmware updates, emulation on the PSP will prove more and more problematic... also, PS1/2 emulation on a PSP is pretty fucking farfetched, man. first of all, the PSP doesn't have the juice to emulate something like that. secondly, ps1/2 games take up WAY too much space to make it work anyway.

I believe the DS as it stands can run emulators, using a DS compatible flash card (IE a GBA/SP one that physically fits in it) with what is effectively a nes emulator for the GBA on it (I use this on my GBA, I think it's called pocketnes).
When I say near perfect, I mean things like the sound isn't quite 100% (never is in emulation), the odd game might not run, etc.

CPU-ability wise? Yes, there's a snes emulator for the GP32 which is nowhere near as powerful as the PSP. I don't know if one has been made for the PSP yet though...

Oh, and a friend of mine managed to get Genesis and SNES emulators working on his. Not sure how good they were, didn't get a chance to play 'em.

I don't think so. If it has any internal storage, it's probably very small.
I personally don't own one.

It doesn't have a hard drive. You can get a 1GB memory stick for like 75 bucks on dealram. Make sure you don't update to system software version 2.0 on the PSP or the emulators out there won't run.

I played computer games solidly for about four of five hours a day until I was 13, then suddenly: no interest whatsoever.
