1. you buy a PS3

2. connect it to the internet

3.open the Playstation store

4.buy the PS1 games you want on the PSP and download them

5. tranfer them to you PSP and your all set :D

^this is the only legal way to do it (there is a rumor going around that they are adding the store to the PSP so you don't have to buy a PS3)

Yeah, hopefully they do add the store to the PSP. Some of us can't afford/don't want a PS3.

I personally think that it is very lame that sony is making people buy a $600 dollar system, then have to buy PS1 games, and finally transfer those games to a separete memory card so that they can play it. So basically if you look at it, you are paying anywhere from $640-$680 to play portable PS1 games...good job sony, you win at life. Still can't beleive that people don't understand why i now hate sony.ff7nation
If anyone buys a ps3 just to play ps1 games they should be drowned in a pool of thier own stupitity :? The ps3 is its own seperate consol and has its own games and ways of doing things. You should be greatfull that they even let us have the ps1 games :D...and how could you hate sony :P they are the only reliable system.

You buy a Playstation 3, have a PSN Network account (to shop), buy them from the store (they cost money), once they finish downloading get a USB cable and connect it to your PS3-PSP and transfer. I mean, that's what I think. I know up to buying it from PSN. Correct me if I'm wrong afterwards.

The way most people here consider illegal due to the brainwashing from Gamespot. I can't really explain it here, but it is legal if you own the PSone game's original disc. I use this method, and only play the Psone games in my collection. There for, I do nothing illegal. I don't really think you should really even consider this method, because there is a lot involved that if messed up the slightest bit could result in you having a nice PSP shaped brick.

Basically, you must have a PS3 to make it legal.

It involves homebrew (unsigned, user-developed applications), which is frequently used for piracy, which is why Gamespot forbids discussion of it.

I personally think that it is very lame that sony is making people buy a $600 dollar system, then have to buy PS1 games, and finally transfer those games to a separete memory card so that they can play it. So basically if you look at it, you are paying anywhere from $640-$680 to play portable PS1 games...good job sony, you win at life. Still can't beleive that people don't understand why i now hate sony.ff7nation

I personally think that it is very lame that M$ and N$ is making people buy a $400/$250 dollar system, then have to buy old games, and finally NOT be able totransfer those games to a separete memory card so that they can play it ON THE GO. So basically if you look at it, you are paying anywhere from $450-$500 to play OLD lame games AND can't even bring them on the GO...good job M$ and N$, you win at life. Still can't beleive that people don't understand why i now hate M$ and Nintendo.

lol man you are right, and that guy who hates sony, you basically pay more for the sh*t box because you have to pay like $50 annually just to play online, and to answer your question the only legal way is to get a PS3 and transfer the data by purchasing the game online then downloading it onto your PS3, then transfer it to your PSP

I own a psp and a ps3 and honestly the things you can do with them are amazing! plus you can keep your entire collection of ps1 and ps2 games while downloading ones you dont have and porting them to the psp for on the go! not to mention music videos etc

Gamespot had made homebrew seem evil.

Like what the goverment has made communism.
