If you have a psp 2000 or newer you can buy a video output cable at your local game store. Plugs in the slot right by the headphone jack. Plug other end in tv and there you go. The only types of cables I know of are component and rca inputs for your tv. Go on playstation.com to see these cables.

Buy the 2000. The PSP 3000 model has some screen issues.

WAIT!! before you buy the cable know this: you must have a tv with progressive scan to play games on it and most sdtvs dont have that, the cable could only be used for movies and pictures. Also that means that you have to have a composite cable not a component one.

The only reason why I recommended the TC not to buy the 3000 was because I know people who have problems with the screen. I'm not dissing your opinion.

Also you might want to consider waiting until E3 comes around as they are supposed to have some big psp announcements there. I'm also considering getting one but if there is a new model or price coming soon it could be worth it to hold off

I always wanted to have a 2000, but with so many wicked games releasing this year, I don't think I'll have the money lol

I made a similar topic about this and a lot of people say it's not that great playing on a larger TV even in progressive scan.
